MIG Gun Consumable System



Bernard has introduced its new AccuLock S Consumable System, adding advanced design features engineered to provide higher productivity and optimized wire feeding, while also simplifying installation and maintenance. The system includes a contact tip, nozzle, gas diffuser, liner and power pin and power pin cap.

"AccuLock S Consumables represent a revolutionary improvement for users of industrial MIG guns," said Linda Ray, Vice President and General Manager. "These consumables work together, as a complete system, improving performance and minimizing - if not eliminating - the most common gun maintenance issues."

The AccuLock S Consumables are designed to solve issues associated with poor wire feeding in semi-automatic MIG welding, such as bird-nesting, burnback and erratic arc. The system locks in place and concentrically aligns the liner with the power pin and contact tip for an enhanced wire feeding path with no gaps or misalignments. There is no liner measuring required during installation or replacement. "Welders simply cut the liner flush with the back of the power pin for perfect liner trimming," said a company spokesperson. "Combined, these features decrease the risk of improper installation that could lead to costly downtime to address poor weld quality or liner replacement."

The contact tips feature coarse threads that mate with the gas diffuser, lessening the chance of cross-threading and speeding contact tip replacement.

The AccuLock S Consumables are designed to reduce heat buildup for long product life. Sixty percent of the contact tip is buried in the gas diffuser to protect it from heat damage, while shielding gas helps cool the contact tip tail. The tapered design of the consumables tightly locks conductive parts together to minimize electrical resistance and further reduce heat buildup.
