9SS32441-22 - Curved Barrel Assembly for MK Pistol Grip Guns .035-1/16 AC/WC

Technical Overview

The Curved Guide Tube for Pistol Grip Gun (SKU: 9SS32441-22) is a specialized replacement component designed for high-performance push-pull MIG welding systems. Engineered primarily for use with MK Products style pistol grip guns—such as the Cobra, Python, and Prince series—this barrel assembly is critical for maintaining the structural integrity and feeding precision of the welding torch.

This guide tube features a robust construction capable of handling wire diameters from 0.035 inches up to 1/16 inches, making it highly versatile for various fabrication thicknesses. A key technical advantage of this specific model is its universal cooling compatibility; it is designed to interface seamlessly with both Air-Cooled (AC) and Water-Cooled (WC) gun assemblies. This dual compatibility ensures that maintenance teams can standardize parts across different machine setups without compromising thermal management.

The curved geometry of the tube is optimized to reduce friction on the wire liner while providing the welder with better ergonomic access to complex joints. Proper maintenance of the guide tube is essential for preventing burn-back and ensuring consistent electrical conductivity at the contact tip. This part serves as a direct replacement for worn or damaged barrels, restoring the gun to factory specifications.
