Hello chaps,

ive got an old maypole maximig welder, the shroud is buggered and the tip is welded to the wire so needs a new one, can anyone adivse where to get these parts from and what they are ctually called?

You can tell im no welder

Thanks

 

Worth joining mig-welding.co.uk theres a wealth of info on there.

Saying that shrouds and tips are a standard part, if its a euro-lance, and if not, normally welders can be conveted to euro lance in a matter of minutes without specialist tools from what I remember. Euro lances are readily available online.

Don't quote me on that though...

Cheers jordan, unfortunatly mine cannot use a euro so im told, but I would be very interested to find out how to convert, ive joined welderfab, will look into mig-welding now, thank very much

Evening gary mate,

a pal of mine came round last night and had a loog, turns out the actual handle/torch is buggered, im a bit stuch now on weather or not to try and get another replacement which are pretty rare or just buy a cheap welder off ebay

 

i think you should just leave the welding to the professionals....................................
