OVERVIEW

Technical Overview

The Tweco Classic No. 3 MIG Gun (SKU: 10301021) represents a hybrid of proven structural durability and modern consumable technology. This model is rated for 300 Amps at a 60% duty cycle using CO2 gas, making it suitable for medium-to-heavy industrial fabrication. The assembly features a 12-foot (3.7-meter) cable and is terminated with a Euro-style connection block, ensuring direct compatibility with wire feeders utilizing the European standard receptacle.

A key technical differentiator for this specific configuration is the integration of the Velocity™ consumable platform. Unlike traditional Tweco consumables, the Velocity system utilizes a threadless, drop-in contact tip and a nozzle that integrates the gas diffuser functionality. This design creates a solid copper conductive path that improves electrical transfer and heat dissipation, resulting in a cooler-running tip and extended consumable life. The gun comes set up for .035" to .045" (0.9mm - 1.2mm) welding wire.

Construction and Performance

The gun retains the signature oval-shaped Classic handle, constructed from high-impact composite materials designed to withstand harsh shop environments. The cable assembly utilizes high-quality copper stranding for efficient current delivery, encased in an abrasion-resistant outer jacket. Heavy-duty steel spring strain reliefs are positioned at both the handle and the machine end to prevent cable kinking and liner binding. The trigger mechanism is designed for longevity, providing positive tactile feedback and reliable switching over thousands of cycles.

FAQ

The Tweco Classic No. 3 is rated at 300 Amps at a 60% duty cycle when using CO2 gas.

This specific model (10301021) features a Euro-style connection, compatible with feeders that use the European standard port.

No, this model is equipped with the Velocity™ consumable system, which uses different tips and nozzles than the traditional 14-series consumables.

It comes configured for .035" to .045" (0.9mm - 1.2mm) wire diameters.

Yes, you can install a polymer or nylon liner (sold separately) to run aluminum wire through this gun.

The conductor tube on the Classic series is fixed but can be replaced with different angles or lengths if required.

The cable assembly is 12 feet (approximately 3.7 meters) long.

Velocity consumables offer better heat dissipation, a more stable arc, fewer parts to manage, and a threadless tip design that prevents seizing.
