10462264 - Tweco Smoke Master Euro-Kwik Adapter Housing

Technical Overview

The Tweco 1046-2264 Smoke Master Euro-Kwik Case is a specialized replacement housing component designed for the back-end termination of Tweco Smoke Master fume extraction MIG guns. This part specifically fits the Euro-Kwik style adapter block, which serves as the interface between the welding gun and the wire feeder. The case is engineered to enclose the brass adapter body, providing essential electrical insulation and mechanical protection for the power pin, gas lines, and control lead connections.

Manufactured from industrial-grade, high-impact molded plastic, the case is designed to withstand the rigors of heavy-duty welding environments, including exposure to heat, spatter, and physical impact. The internal geometry of the case is molded to securely locate the Euro-Kwik block, preventing rotation or movement during connection and disconnection from the machine. This ensures that the electrical and gas continuity remains compromised.

Compatibility and Installation

This housing is exclusively compatible with the Smoke Master series of fume extraction guns configured with a Euro-Kwik (European standard) rear connection. It is not suitable for standard Tweco, Miller, or Lincoln style rear adapters, as the internal dimensions differ. Proper installation of this case is critical for maintaining the safety rating of the gun, as it shields the operator from potential contact with electrically live components at the feeder connection point.
