i need a fluxcore gun for s-32p 12 suitcase

admin

Hi guys,  I'm getting set to do a large fc project that I'm sure will overwhlm my mig gun.  I've been researching flux Orr guns and of course none of them say they are compatible with my 20 year old feeder.  Can you guys point me in the right direction?  Thanks a lot!Farmer2Hobart Champion EliteMiller S-32p 12Lincoln sp175tLincoln 225 ac tombstoneHarris oxy/aceteleneMakita grinders/chopsawHypertherm Powermax 45
Reply:The guns are pretty much the same. You need to get one that has a Miller back end. The miller guns or the Bernard Dura Flux would be a good choice. What size wire are you going to use?

Reply:So this would work? No issues with my contactor ?   Any reason to not get the 15 foot length ?  It doesnt say anything about liners or does it not have a liner?http://m.cyberweld.com/irfcgun1.htmlThanks Farmer2Last edited by farmer2; 07-22-2014 at 08:34 PM.Hobart Champion EliteMiller S-32p 12Lincoln sp175tLincoln 225 ac tombstoneHarris oxy/aceteleneMakita grinders/chopsawHypertherm Powermax 45
Reply:That's not a bad price if it includes your choice of liners, etc. Me, I spend the extra 80 bucks for a Tweco/Miller adaptor to run any Tweco gun I have. The few extra bucks save a lot of time in interchangeability and availability.
Reply:I don't like the long guns for fluxcore, seems like it is harder to feed than hardwire. I prefer a 10 or12 foot for fluxcore. You will probably need a different liner since those guns are usually set up for .068. Or 5-64 wire. I think that's a pretty good price on a decent gun.
Reply:If you're only going to be running .045 wire, a standard MIG gun will be fine as long as you de-rate the duty cycle to account for no gas flow. For instance a Q300 will run it all day. If you plan to run anything bigger then yeah, the Duraflux or the Lincoln K126.JohnA few weldersA lot of hammersA whole lot of C-clamps
