Expand the capabilities of your ESAB Rebel welder with the Tweco 160 Amp Spool Gun (1027-1397). Designed specifically for the Rebel series, this accessory is the ultimate solution for welders looking to tackle aluminum projects with ease and precision. Unlike standard MIG guns that struggle to push soft aluminum wire through long liners, this spool gun feeds the wire directly from a 4-inch spool mounted on the gun itself. This short feed distance eliminates bird-nesting and ensures a smooth, consistent arc, making it perfect for fabrication, automotive repair, and hobbyist projects.
The standout feature of this unit is its intelligent auto-detect technology. When plugged into a compatible ESAB Rebel 215ic, 205ic, or EM series machine, the welder automatically recognizes the gun and switches to Spool Gun mode. This "plug-and-play" functionality saves you valuable setup time, allowing you to focus on laying down the perfect bead rather than fiddling with machine settings. The 12-foot cable assembly provides ample reach, giving you the freedom to move around large workpieces or work on vehicles without constantly repositioning your power source.
Comfort and durability are at the heart of the design. Weighing in at just 6.4 lbs, the gun is lightweight enough for extended use without causing excessive hand fatigue. The impact-resistant handle and protective cable sleeve ensure the tool can withstand the rigors of a busy shop environment. Additionally, the clear spool cover allows you to check your remaining wire at a glance, so you are never caught off guard by an empty spool in the middle of a weld. Whether you are welding aluminum, stainless steel, or silicon bronze, this Tweco spool gun delivers the reliability and performance you expect from a top-tier brand.
