OVERVIEW

Efficient Source Capture for Industrial Welding

The Esab Tweco 260C (Smoke Master series) Fume Extraction MIG Gun is engineered to address one of the most critical safety challenges in modern fabrication: welding fumes. By integrating a high-volume vacuum chamber directly into the gun handle and nozzle assembly, this tool captures hazardous particulates at the source—the welding arc—before they can enter the welder's breathing zone or disperse into the facility. Designed for heavy-duty industrial environments, the gun maintains the rugged reliability Tweco is known for while adding essential environmental controls.

This specific model (SKU 10261111) features a 10-foot cable assembly and a Miller-style backend connection, making it a direct replacement for standard guns on Miller wire feeders. It is rated for approximately 250 to 300 amps, suitable for a wide range of manufacturing applications using solid or flux-cored wires. The air-cooled design simplifies setup by eliminating the need for water coolers, relying instead on the airflow of the extraction system and ambient air to maintain operating temperatures.

Technically, the gun utilizes a coaxial cable design where the vacuum hose surrounds the power cable and liner, providing protection and minimizing bulk. The front-end consumables are compatible with standard Tweco 11 or 14 series parts, ensuring that inventory management remains streamlined. The extraction nozzle is adjustable, allowing operators to balance gas coverage with smoke removal efficiency. This unit requires connection to a high-vacuum extraction unit (sold separately) to function effectively.

FAQ

This gun features a Miller-style backend connection, making it compatible with most Miller wire feeders.

Yes, this is a fume extraction gun and must be connected to a high-vacuum fume extraction unit to function.

It is generally rated for 250 Amps at 80% duty cycle or up to 300 Amps at lower duty cycles using CO2 gas.

It typically uses standard Tweco 14 Series or 11 Series contact tips and nozzles, depending on the specific front-end setup.

The vacuum hose is integrated into the cable assembly. While slightly heavier than a standard gun, Tweco designs them to be balanced and ergonomic.

Yes, it is excellent for Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) as it effectively captures the heavy smoke generated by the process.

The cable length is 10 feet.

If the vacuum is set too high, it can disturb the gas. The nozzle is designed to minimize this, and the vacuum level is usually adjustable at the extraction unit.
