MigWeld 250P and Spool Gun

**Nice50Cal** · 12-23-2010, 08:14 PM

I have a friend that is looking at a new MIG but needs a spool gun to go with it. The web tells me I can use a spool gun with it but he has heard it is a misprint. So my question is can the new 250 work with a spool gun? If no any word on a new model that will work with a spool gun. I know the 205 will work but he was hoping for a 250. Thanks

It looks like all the longevity MIG's have that capability. The 250 being the second from the biggest should definitely have it. Just give longevity a call Tomarrow. They'll be able to straighten you out really quick.

Thanks, I spoke to the local rep and was told the 250 will not work with a spool gun but mid to late Jan the new unit will be out and will work with it.
Thanks

Nice to know. Is the machine replacing it gonna be a 250 as well?

Yes it will be a 250. I am told it will be a sweet unit. I know when they show up I will be talking to my local rep. I have a job coming up that will requires a lot of alu work.

I just purchased a migweld 250p on 12/29/2010 and was told it is spool gun capable. You may want to check with longevity directly on this one. I purchased through Simon.
