Review on πŸ”§ Efficient 150 Amp MIG Gun Torch Replacement for Miller - 12 Feet Cable with Two-Pin Signal Connector by Sean Young

Revainrating 3 out of 5

purchased October 2019. Updated after hundreds of hours of welding

UPDATE: I've spent several hundred hours on this gun. In the first 2 months, the MIG torch nozzle started to twist due to being loose. no screws to tighten the nozzle. So I glued the nozzle in place. During the whole period of operation the MIG gun has lasted about 10 months, in the last 3-4 months the wire started to stick to the liner, in this last welding session the wire itself welded to the liner and I can't pull it out. The trigger began to fail. The trigger only activates the throttle release, not the wire feed. The two pins are free for connection to the MIG device. My original Miller MIG gun lasted 14 years before encountering such problems. I think I can complain about the overall quality for the price. but now I need another MIG torch to keep my welder running. Original review: The welding torch fits my Miller 135 welding machine very well. When installing the trigger switch, I had to fiddle with the fit of the two pins, but otherwise the installation went perfectly. When I turned on the machine, the trigger responded very well, the cable moved smoothly. The gun works much better than my 15 year old parts. This spare part is much cheaper than the original milling gun. Only time will tell if the trigger holds.
