Safe and Accurate Setup

External setup switches allow independent operation of the sprayer, clamp and spindle during manual setup
Cutter blade lifts into position but does not spin when activated by the spindle setup switch

Ease of Maintenance

All wiring connections are built into the new wiring harness, reducing the risk of wiring errors during maintenance
Wires are labeled for easy identification

Repeatability

Spindle has rotating rod accuracy of 0.001″ – 0.004″ at its extended position for cutting repeatability and optimized spatter removal
Fixed motor, clamp and v-block provide cutting accuracy and repeatability — No manual adjustments to nozzle clamps, cutter height, or motor height are required

Reliability

Sprayer reservoir is located on the opposite side of the unit as an additional safeguard against overfilling / leakage onto internal electronics
All pneumatic valves are internally mounted
External setup switches are protected and seals protect points of entry

Filter / Regulator

The Filter / Regulator unit from Tregaskiss is another recommended accessory that helps extend the life of your TOUGH GUN reamer. The filter cleans the air supply to the reamer and restricts debris from reaching the motor, keeping it uncontaminated and ensuring maximum performance and longer life, while the regulator works to ensure optimal air pressure is achieved at the unit.

TOUGH GUN Wire Cutter

The TOUGH GUN wire cutter removes the ball-end of the welding wire to provide smooth arc starts and consistent wire stick-out. The TOUGH GUN wire cutter easily cuts a variety of wire types from stainless steel to aluminum to flux-core in wire sizes up to 1/16″.

Spray Containment

The innovative spray containment unit from Tregaskiss helps prevent air contamination by catching anti-spatter overspray in its sealed basin, improving the air quality of the working environment and maintaining the cleanliness of the weld cell.

Nozzle Detection

Nozzle detection for the TOUGH GUN TT4E reamer uses a proximity sensor mounted on the side of the reamer that can be used independently of the ream cycle. The robot positions the front end of the MIG gun close to the sensor to detect the presence of the nozzle. If the nozzle is present, a signal is then sent back to the robot controller or PLC.

Cutter Blades

Improved performance. Competitive pricing.

Tregaskiss is pleased to announce improvements to the design of our cutter blades. These new cutter blades are engineered from harder, stronger material for enhanced performance and durability, making them more resistant against breaking, snapping, chipping or cracking.

V-Blocks

Compatible with Tregaskiss® and most competitive consumables, these four-sided v-blocks ensure your cutter is concentric with your consumables and your nozzle bore to guarantee the most effective ream. Choose from five available v-block options when configuring your new TOUGH GUN TT4E reamer

TOUGH GUN Reamer Stand

Custom Height. Quick Installation. Easy on the Budget.

Tregaskiss provides a simple fixed height durable stand for all TOUGH GUN TT4A and TT4E reamer models. Each TOUGH GUN reamer stand can be ordered to a custom height between 18- and 45-inches.

TOUGH GARD Anti-Spatter Liquid

TOUGH GARD anti-spatter liquid was developed to address the performance requirements of metal fabricators. TOUGH GARD anti-spatter liquid won’t harm machinery or clog the sprayer like oil-based anti-spatter solutions, it cleans up easily with no residue, it’s safe to use and it’s safe for the environment. Helping prevent spatter adhesion and extending the life of consumables, TOUGH GARD anti-spatter liquid reduces downtime thus lowering operating and maintenance costs.

TOUGH GARD Multi-Feed System

The TOUGH GARD multi-feed system for anti-spatter solution can connect up to ten TOUGH GUN TT4 reamer stations. This system eliminates the need to refill anti-spatter reservoirs on a frequent basis, resulting in lower operating costs, reduced downtime and increased safety.
