Abstract: A gas-shielded arc-welding torch constituted by a holder section having a barrel adapted to retain a tungsten electrode and a handle section which supplies electric current to the holder section as well as an inert gas thereto, the holder section being bendable relative to the handle to assume any desired angular working position. Included in the handle section is a conductive metal helix of solid wire, one end of which is connected by a tubular metal coupler to the barrel of the holder section, the other end being connected by a pipe to a hollow electrical connector to define a current-supply line extending from the connector to the barrel.
