Spool Gun VS Push-Pull Gun
Ғылым және технология
When it comes to MIG welding aluminium, using a standard torch is possible, but it's not the recommended way of doing it. It works, but is it really worth the effort? Have you tried a spool gun or a push-pull gun?
Both of these MIG accessories have been specially designed to work with the softer aluminium wire, and they both make the process way easier. But which one do you need? We've gone over what they are, how they work, and which one you'll need for your weld. Hint: spool guns are good for small jobs, and push-pull guns are great for heavy-duty stuff.

I love my little spool gun, did have to modify my viper 182 mk1 to use it, and the trigger sticks on occasionally, but the push pull looks interesting too.
The difference between a spool gun and push- pull gun is about $1000.00.
great vid mate...done alot of welding but just got my first spool gun....well explained cheers
Great video! Short and informative. I'm more structural steel welder, but I can see the advantage and disadvantages to both. Thank you for posting!
No comparison! A push-pull gun fixes 90% of what’s wrong with every spool gun I’ve ever used. Feeding issues and the bulk of the spool gun and you’re not running out of wire every time you turn around. Most spool guns, that I’ve used, won’t pull the last 25% of the wire off the spool, especially when using 5356.

Why don't they pull the last 25%? (I'm just started the trade)

I went through 6 spools guns because the motors kept getting fatigued and kept having wire feed issues. Finally got tired of it and now getting a mk python push pull gun that will be here today.
@unimig does the unimig 360amp push pull gun “plug and play” into the new unimig 200pulse mig welder?
When would you just go with a 3m lead on a high quality setup using ~1.0mm wire? To me a lot of the issues are with machine placements and lead orientation.
