OVERVIEW

The Industry Standard for Reliability

When welders think of a reliable, hardworking MIG gun, the Tweco Classic No. 1 is often the first tool that comes to mind. For decades, this 180-amp air-cooled gun has been the backbone of light-to-medium fabrication shops across the globe. Designed with the operator in mind, it features the iconic paddle-style trigger and an ergonomic handle that fits comfortably in the hand, reducing fatigue during long welding sessions.

This model comes equipped with a 15-foot cable, providing ample reach for working around large fixtures or automotive frames without constantly moving the wire feeder. The backend is a standard Tweco connection, making it compatible with a vast array of welding machines that utilize the Tweco-style receptacle. Whether you are welding mild steel in a production line or performing maintenance repairs, the Classic No. 1 delivers consistent wire feeding and arc stability.

Maintenance is a breeze with the Classic No. 1. It utilizes the widely available 11-Series contact tips and 21-Series nozzles, meaning you will never struggle to find replacement parts. The mechanical cable connections are designed to be field-repairable, ensuring that a damaged cable doesn't mean the end of the gun's life. Trust in the heritage of Tweco and equip your shop with a MIG gun built to last.
