Description

Eastwood MIG Welder Spool Gun with Metal Connector

When a restoration project calls for welding metals other than sheet metal and steel, the Eastwood MIG aluminum spoolgun can help with that. This universal spool gun is compatible with all of our MIG welders. By swapping it for the regular MIG torch, you’ll be able to fabricate aluminum at the same thickness the welder could handle for steel. The Eastwood spool gun has a metal connector for use with welders that have metal plugs on the torch head.

A metal spool gun is one of many great MIG welding accessories you can order from Eastwood. It comes with a 1-pound spool of aluminum welding wire and has a 1-year manufacturer’s warry. Watch our demonstration video to learn how to use a spool gun or call the Eastwood tech team seven days a week.

  • For use on Eastwood MIG welders that have a metal plug on the machine and torch lead

    Reviews

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from First Time Using Spool Gun. First time spool gun welding aluminum. It was like using a squeeze bottle of oleo. Good looking welds. I weld 4043 stick and its hard finding that sweet spot in amps. Mig welding aluminum is the way to go in my opinion for us non tig welders.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Weld Quality surprising I’ve never used a spool gun, not have I welded aluminum before. After finding the right settings, I was welding pretty well and was amazed how easy it is to use and get a good weld.

    Rated 2 out of 5 by from Can’t find parts Works great when it works. Found out the gas diffuser is not standard. Had to ream out a standard diffuser in order for it to work. Would love to see a part number somewhere in the manual or website.

    Rated 2 out of 5 by from No Spool gun feeder motor seems to have issues with feeding the wire through. Had to replace a lot off tips. The cover for the wire keeps falling off had to put some duct tape.

    Questions & Answers

    Does it fit any Millermatic welders? Like 250-251-252 

    Asked by: MNMSHEETMETAL
    We cannot confirm fitment with other manufacturers' welders, sorry.

    Do you use the same weld setting chart on inside lid for aluminum as you would the steel or are the settings different for same thicknesses and if so where do I find those settings? 

    Asked by: Billy oi
    You run slightly different settings when MIG welding aluminum with the spool gun and 100% Argon gas. Welders like our MIG 140 and MIG 180 have spool gun specific settings at the bottom of the chart eg. https://www.eastwood.com/images/pdf/p33980h_settings_chart.jpg But, generally when compared to settings for an equivalent steel thickness you end up running a little more voltage and significantly more wire speed to get good results with the spool gun on aluminum. The wire speed is particularly important to turn up because the aluminum wire tries to melt back much faster.

    Do the spool guns come with tips? Do the use the same tips as the mig gun on my mp250i?

    Asked by: Greg
    It does come with tips, an 0.035" is installed and it has a spare 0.035" and 0.030". The contact tips are a little different, they aren't flared like your MP250i ones. They are straight like our entry level MIG welder ones.

    Is this gun compatible with the new mp200i?

    Asked by: Thomas123
    The Elite MP140i and Elite MP200i need that #20645 spool gun. This one is incompatible with those welders.
