MIG Gun Question.

admin

I have a Miller Xtreme 12VS Suitcase welder.  I am looking at a Bernard 300A MIG Gun.  Will this fit the 12VS Suitcase Welder.  I'm Pretty sure it will, But I just wanted to double check before buying it.  Heres a Link to the MIG Gun. http://cgi.ebay.com/MILLER-BERNARD-3...item35b3c77f40Thanks Don.Some Blue , Some Red & Some GreyProverbs 16:2-3.2 "All a person’s ways seem pure to them, but motives are weighed by the Lord. 3 Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans."
Reply:IDK....he says its a Miller Bernard, but a std Tweco back end?  So, which is it...a Tweco or a Miller?  Some people just do not know what they are trying to sell. According to my Bernard catalog, That power pin looks like a Miller, not a Tweco. The Miller back end is the only one with a pointed end, the Tweco #4 has a flat back end. So, I believe you are good to go with that one. That is a very good gun. I have the same one on my 12RC and adapted one to my Esab MM260. I would NOT be without a Bernard Q gun anymore.QamuIs Heg qaq law' lorvIs yInqaq puS
Reply:Looks just like the two Miller back end Bernards I have.This is what a Tweco end looks like and the one you don't want.MM200 w/Spoolmatic 1Syncrowave 180SDBobcat 225G Plus - LP/NGMUTT Suitcase WirefeederWC-1S/Spoolmatic 1HF-251D-1PakMaster 100XL '68 Red Face Code #6633 projectStar Jet 21-110Save Second Base!
Reply:Good thing about the Q guns is the back ends are swappable. Should it be different from the pic, you could always order the Miller Direct Connect kit. My last one cost about 50 clams. p/n 1199mQamuIs Heg qaq law' lorvIs yInqaq puS
Reply:Don,From the pic in the listing the back end looks right.
Reply:That one in the e-bay link looks just like the back end on both my guns for my X-Treme 12VS although the price with shipping is $65 more than I paid for my recent e-bay 400A Bernard acquisition (mine is an "S" not a "Q" though).ThurmondMiller Bobcat 3 Phase,26 series gas cooled TIG torchMiller Suitcase X-Treme 12VS17 Series Tig Torch for Solar Panel Powered WeldingOxy/Acetylene Torch rigEVERLAST PowerUltra 205P
