The ESAB 10441146 is a high-performance Push-Pull MIG gun engineered specifically for the rigorous demands of industrial aluminum welding. Identified by the internal SKU TWE10441146, this unit is designed to overcome the friction and buckling issues inherent in feeding soft aluminum wires over long distances. By incorporating a drive motor within the gun handle that synchronizes with the wire feeder, it maintains constant tension on the wire, effectively eliminating bird-nesting and erratic arc characteristics.
Rated at 400 Amps, this water-cooled torch is built for high-duty cycle environments where downtime is not an option. The water-cooling system efficiently dissipates heat from the contact tip and nozzle, extending consumable life and ensuring operator comfort during prolonged use. The gun comes pre-configured for 1/16-inch (1.6mm) wire, a standard size for structural aluminum fabrication in shipbuilding, trailer manufacturing, and aerospace applications.
This specific model features a 33-foot (10-meter) cable assembly, providing exceptional reach around large fixtures and workpieces. The backend is terminated with a Miller-style connection, ensuring plug-and-play compatibility with Miller wire feeders and power sources that support push-pull gun operation. The robust construction includes a durable cable sheath that resists cuts and abrasion, protecting the internal power cable, gas hose, and water lines.
