OVERVIEW

Breathe Easier Without Losing Power

Let's face it: fume extraction guns have a reputation for being heavy, bulky, and hard to maneuver. But when you are burning 1/16" flux-cored wire all day at 400+ amps, you need protection from that smoke plume. The Tweco Smoke Master 500 is designed to give you that protection while keeping the gun as usable as possible. Rated for a massive 500 Amps, this gun doesn't shy away from the heat, and it's built to pull that nasty smoke right away from the puddle before it gets under your hood.

This setup (SKU 51086SP) comes ready to rock with a Miller backend, so you can plug it straight into your existing Miller feeder. It's got a 15-foot lead, giving you enough room to move around large weldments without getting tangled. The handle is designed to be as ergonomic as a vacuum gun can be, helping you keep a steady hand even near the end of a long shift. The vacuum shroud is positioned to suck up smoke effectively, but you can adjust the slide valve to make sure you aren't pulling away your shielding gas when you're in a tight corner.

Maintenance is straightforward because it uses the Tweco consumables you likely already have in the shop. No hunting for exotic contact tips or diffusers. If you are tired of breathing in the grey cloud or your safety officer is on your case about air quality, this gun is the compromise that works. It handles the big wire (1/16"), takes the heat, and clears the air, letting you focus on laying down a solid bead.
