WINDSOR, Ontario. March 15, 2010—Tregaskiss has brought a new look and extra flexibility to its line of TGX™ Semi-Automatic MIG Guns—at no extra cost. Designed for light- to medium-duty welding applications, the following TGX MIG Guns are available: XL 400 amp, XL300 amp, XS 300 amp, XS 260 amp, and XS 180 amTGX MIG Welding Guns - New Designp. Ideal for light fabrication, hobbyist welding, and repairs, these guns are a complement to Tregaskiss’ TOUGH GUN™ MIG Guns, which are designed for more demanding, higher amperage welding applications.

TGX MIG Guns now feature a black polymer armored-style gooseneck that is well suited to light- and medium-duty applications, and new grey gun handles, black triggers, and a completely new rear handle. Available in three standard lengths of 10, 12 and 15 feet, all TGX MIG Guns now also feature Tregaskiss’ TOUGH LOCK™ Retaining Heads with Dual Taper Technology. The TOUGH LOCK System is designed to keep consumables running cooler and lasting longer.

A TGX MIG Gun is recommended for customers who answer yes to one or more of the following questions:

  1. The welding gun will be used in light- to medium-duty welding applications with intermittent arc on times.
  2. The welding gun will be used in a light fabrication or repair, or a hobby-welding environment.
  3. I need a gun cable that is less than 15 feet.
  4. I do not require a MIG gun customized with special triggers, goosenecks, consumables, etc.
