10281170 - Tweco ELC225 Compact Fume Extraction MIG Gun, 25ft, Miller Style

Breathe Easier, Weld Longer

Let's face it: nobody likes breathing in weld smoke. Whether you are burning flux-core on galvanized steel or welding stainless, the fumes can be thick, choking, and bad for your long-term health. The Tweco Compact Eliminator is your first line of defense. Unlike big overhead hoods that only catch smoke after it has already floated past your face, this gun sucks the smoke right up at the nozzle while you weld. It’s like having a vacuum cleaner attached to your arc, clearing your view of the puddle and keeping the air in your helmet much cleaner.

If you have used old-school "smoke eater" guns before, you know they can feel like wrestling a python—heavy, stiff, and hard to get into tight corners. Tweco built the Compact Eliminator (ELC) series to fix exactly that. It is lighter, smaller, and easier to handle than the older beasts, so you don't finish your shift with a wrist that feels like it's broken. The handle is designed to fit comfortably in your glove, and the vacuum shroud is adjustable so you can find the sweet spot between good suction and good gas coverage.

This model is a beast for reach, giving you a massive 25 feet of cable. That means you can climb around a large trailer frame or work on the far side of a jig without dragging your feeder with you. It hooks right up to Miller feeders, so if your shop runs Blue, you are good to go. It comes ready to run .040" or .045" wire, which is perfect for most general fabrication jobs. If you want to keep the smoke out of your lungs without fighting your equipment, the Tweco Compact Eliminator is the tool for the job.
