OVERVIEW

Upgrade Comfort with the Tweco 2060-2693 Locking Trigger

Welding is a physically demanding profession, and repetitive strain injuries are a genuine concern for full-time fabricators. The Tweco 2060-2693 Replacement Trigger, Locking is more than just a spare part; it is an ergonomic upgrade for your heavy-duty MIG welding operations. Designed to fit specific Tweco MIG guns, this trigger assembly features a convenient locking tab that keeps the contact engaged without continuous finger pressure. This is invaluable for laying down long beads on pipe, plate, or structural beams where maintaining a steady torch angle and travel speed is critical.

Why Choose a Locking Trigger?

Standard triggers require constant force to maintain the arc. Over time, this static muscle load can cause the hand to shake or cramp, potentially affecting the quality of the weld bead. By utilizing the locking feature of the 2060-2693, you can relax your grip on the handle while the arc remains established. This relaxation allows for finer manipulation of the torch angle and smoother travel, resulting in cleaner, more professional welds. It is particularly useful in high-amperage spray transfer modes where deposition rates are high and weld times are longer.

Built for the Shop Floor

Tweco components are synonymous with durability. This replacement trigger is constructed from high-impact, heat-resistant composite materials capable of surviving the rough conditions of a welding shop. It resists cracking from drops and withstands the radiant heat generated during high-duty-cycle welding. The internal contacts are designed for reliable switching, ensuring that the gas solenoid and wire feeder engage instantly every time you pull the trigger. Whether you are repairing an old favorite torch or stocking up on critical spares, this locking trigger is a smart investment.

Seamless Fit for Tweco Guns

Don't struggle with "universal" parts that require modification. The 2060-2693 is engineered for specific Tweco platforms, commonly found on the Classic No. 2 through No. 6 guns and the Spray Master line. The installation is quick, requiring only basic tools to open the handle assembly, swap the unit, and reconnect the leads. Get back to welding faster with parts that fit right the first time. Keeping a spare locking trigger in your toolbox ensures that a broken switch never stops production for long.
