    Great mod! I did the same thing on a small Lincoln mig gun so it would accept larger Miller tips that I had on hand.

      I think those black ones are fiberglass...I saw some recently on Amazon that were ceramic but I've never used a ceramic one before other than for TIG.

    As for running contact tips larger than the wire you’re running, I do that all the time for Aluminum MIG. You go through a lot fewer tips that way. Merry Christmas C.B. and Miss Tina!

    Those 14H-35 tips are what i use in my tweco #2 gun which is the heavy duty gun they sell for the arccaptain 200 thats what i have on mine with the 15' cable

    • @NBSWELDING
      @NBSWELDING  9 днів тому

      Tell more...who sells it?...I thought I saw a 15' Yeswelder on Amazon that would fit a MIG 200 but ARCCAPTAIN tells me they have no plans to make a 15' gun.
      I'm still testing what they sent me and will continue beating hell out of it until it fails

    Question- Did cutting off the diffuser length mess with the liner length?

    • @NBSWELDING
      @NBSWELDING  9 днів тому

      Liner is behind the diffuser....cutting it at the tip has nothing to do with the length of the liner

    Love your video's. I have the Arccaptain MIG 200. I would like to install a longer cable for my gun it came with the standard 9 or 10 foot lead, What 12 or 15 foot cable do you suggest to use with this machine? Thanks.

    • @NBSWELDING
      @NBSWELDING  8 днів тому

      I'd like to have a 15 foot gun for wire welding also and I have asked ARCCAPTAIN about it...I was told that they don't have any immediate plans to make one that is longer than the 10 foot guns they have out now. I think I saw a 15 foot gun from Yeswelder on Amazon that had the euro connection and it may fit on the MIG 200 but I haven't got one of those and tried it for myself. I had a comment from a viewer who said that he had a 15 foot gun for his and I asked where he got it and what brand it was but I haven't heard back on that yet. I can't afford to buy things just to try them so I gotta work with what they send me. If I find out anything more about a longer gun I'll definitely spread the word on the channel...stay tuned.
      As far as you using the word "cable" I'm assuming you know that you can buy welding cable in any length you want and adapt it to your machine for stinger and ground for stick welding...in this case when you said cable I was at first assuming that you were talking about your MIG gun.

    I wonder if ArcCaptain is the type of company that wants to keep selling a lot of consumables, or if they will take your advice and beef up their consumables? Nice job.

    • @NBSWELDING
      @NBSWELDING  8 днів тому

      What they are using now works great for the intended purposes of the home mechanic or hobby welder that their equipment is built for...if they beef it up then they are gonna need more money for it and that defeats the purpose....they market their equipment to the people who cannot afford heavy duty stuff from Miller, Lincoln, or ESAB.
      As an ARCCAPTAIN affiliate and someone who welds for a living I'm pushing the machines far passed what they should be used for...but they are hangin' right in there
