OVERVIEW

Unlock Professional Aluminum Welding

Welding aluminum presents unique challenges, primarily due to the softness of the wire which often leads to feeding jams and "bird-nesting" in standard MIG torches. The Hobart SpoolRunner 200 Spool Gun is the ultimate solution for these frustrations, designed specifically to provide smooth, reliable wire feeding for aluminum projects. By mounting the 4-inch wire spool directly on the gun, the distance the wire must travel is minimized, ensuring a consistent arc and superior weld quality every time.

This heavy-duty accessory is rated for 200 amps at a 60% duty cycle, giving you the power to weld aluminum ranging from 16 gauge thin sheet up to 1/2-inch thick plate. One of its standout features is the 20-foot (6.1 m) cable lead, which offers exceptional mobility. You can easily move around large projects like boat hulls, trailers, or signage without dragging your welder along with you. This extended reach is a massive advantage for shop productivity and ease of use.

Designed for the Hobart IronMan 240 and 230 series welders, the SpoolRunner 200 features a direct plug-in connection that makes setup instantaneous—no extra control boxes or adapters required. The gun is user-friendly, featuring tool-less access to drive rolls and a clear cover so you can monitor your wire supply at a glance. Whether you are a professional fabricator or a serious DIY enthusiast, adding the SpoolRunner 200 to your arsenal transforms your IronMan welder into a versatile aluminum fabrication station.

Stop fighting with wire jams and start laying down perfect beads. The SpoolRunner 200 handles standard .030 to .035-inch aluminum wires as well as silicon bronze, making it a versatile tool for various soft-alloy applications. Its ergonomic handle and balanced weight distribution ensure comfort during long welding sessions, allowing you to focus on the quality of your work.

FAQ

The SpoolRunner 200 is designed for direct plug-in compatibility with the Hobart IronMan 240 and IronMan 230 MIG welders.

It is rated at 200 Amps at a 60% duty cycle.

The SpoolRunner 200 comes with a 20-foot (6.1 meter) cable lead for extended reach.

It is designed to feed .030 inch to .035 inch (0.8-0.9 mm) aluminum or silicon bronze wire.

Yes, by holding the spool directly on the gun, it pushes the wire only a few inches, virtually eliminating the friction and tangling (bird-nesting) common with soft aluminum wire in long cables.

It accepts standard 4-inch diameter spools, which typically hold 1 lb of aluminum wire or 2 lbs of silicon bronze wire.

While physically possible if equipped with steel wire, it is primarily designed for soft wires like aluminum. Steel is usually welded more efficiently with the standard MIG gun included with your welder.

When paired with the IronMan 240, it can weld aluminum up to 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) thick.
