Arc Welding Torch Market by Wear Parts (Gas Nozzles, Contact Tips, Electrodes), Cooling Type (Air-Cooled, Water-Cooled), End-Use Industries (Automotive, Construction, Power Generation), And Region - Global Forecast to 2029

The arc welding torch market size is projected to grow from USD 2.7 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 3.5 Billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 4.7%. The global arc welding torch market has experienced significant growth, fueled by several factors, including the promising expansion of the steel industry. The increasing demand for steel, driven by growth in automotive, construction, and power generation industries, has directly contributed to the market's expansion. Arc welding, being a critical process in steel manufacturing and fabrication, has witnessed heightened demand for high-quality welding torches. These torches are essential for ensuring efficient and precise welding, meeting the stringent requirements of industries reliant on steel products. As a result, the global arc welding torch market has flourished, with manufacturers innovating to meet the evolving needs of various industries, further propelling market growth.

“The air-cooledsegment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.”

Air-cooled torches are set to lead in CAGR due to their simplicity and cost-effectiveness, omitting the need for additional water-cooling systems. They offer enhanced mobility and maneuverability, making them ideal for diverse welding scenarios. Advancements in technology have narrowed the performance gap with water-cooled torches, making them a preferred choice for welders prioritizing ease of use without compromising quality. Conversely, water-cooled torches, though offering superior heat dissipation, entail higher upfront and operational costs and may be less practical in resource-constrained environments.

“ The Contact tip segment is expected to hold the 2ndlargest market share during the forecast period.”

The contact tips segment is anticipated to secure the second-largest position during the forecast period due to several factors. Firstly, the growing adoption of welding processes across various industries, including automotive, construction, and manufacturing, is driving the demand for contact tips. Additionally, technological advancements in welding equipment, leading to enhanced efficiency and performance of contact tips, further contribute to their market growth. Moreover, the increasing focus on infrastructure development projects globally is fueling the demand for welding solutions, consequently boosting the sales of contact tips. These factors collectively contribute to the projected significant market share of the contact tips segment in the coming years.

“Asia Pacific projected as the fastest growing arc welding torch market during the forecast period.”

Asia Pacific is the largest and fastest-growing market for arc welding torches. In the last five years, end-use industries such as automotive, construction, and power generation in the Asia Pacific region have witnessed significant developments, owing to which the demand for arc welding torches has also increased substantially. China continues to drive the global demand, owing to the increasing population and rapidly growing infrastructural development.
