OVERVIEW

MK Products Python Push-Pull MIG Gun – Water Cooled (15ft)

For industrial fabricators demanding the absolute highest reliability in aluminum wire feeding, the MK Products Python Push-Pull MIG Gun stands as the premier choice. This water-cooled model (SKU: 292815) is engineered to tackle the most rigorous production environments where downtime caused by wire feeding issues is not an option. The Python gun utilizes MK’s legendary push-pull technology, which synchronizes a motor in the gun with the wire feeder to maintain constant tension, effectively eliminating the friction, bird-nesting, and erratic arcs often associated with pushing soft aluminum wire through long cable assemblies.

The water-cooled configuration of this 15-foot torch ensures it can handle high-amperage applications continuously. Rated for 400 Amps at 100% duty cycle, it is built for heavy manufacturing, shipbuilding, and trailer fabrication where long welds and high heat are the norm. The cooling system efficiently dissipates heat from the front end and handle, ensuring operator comfort and prolonging the life of consumables. The 15-foot cable length provides ample reach for working on large assemblies without the need to constantly reposition the wire feeder.

Maintenance and versatility are key components of the Python's design. It features the patented EZ-Lock® barrel system, allowing operators to rotate the barrel 360 degrees for optimal positioning or change it out entirely in seconds. This modularity reduces service time and keeps production lines moving. At Josef Gas, we recommend the MK Python to any facility serious about aluminum fabrication; it is a tool that pays for itself through increased productivity and reduced frustration.

Key Industrial Benefits

  • Zero Feeding Issues: Push-pull mechanics ensure smooth delivery of soft aluminum wires (4000 and 5000 series).
  • High Duty Cycle: Water cooling allows for continuous welding at high amperages without overheating.

FAQ

A push-pull gun utilizes a motor in the torch handle to pull the wire while the feeder pushes it. This maintains constant tension, preventing the wire from buckling or bird-nesting, which is critical when welding with soft aluminum wires over long distances.

Yes, this is a water-cooled model and requires a recirculating water cooler to operate safely and prevent overheating of the power cable and torch head.

The water-cooled MK Python is typically rated at 400 Amps at 100% duty cycle, making it suitable for heavy-duty industrial applications.

While the Python is designed primarily for aluminum, it can feed steel and stainless steel wire effectively if equipped with the correct liners and drive rolls.

The Python gun generally supports wire diameters ranging from 0.030" (0.8mm) up to 1/16" (1.6mm) for aluminum.

Yes, the Python features an EZ-Lock barrel system that allows the barrel to be rotated 360 degrees or easily removed and replaced.

This specific model (292815) comes with a 15-foot cable assembly.

No, push-pull guns require a compatible wire feeder or a specific control module/interface kit to synchronize the gun motor with the feeder motor. Check compatibility with your power source before purchasing.
