Weld aluminium with wire, without jams or stoppages. Aluminium is a soft wire that easily jams in a steel-lined torch. This dedicated aluminium torch has an internal Teflon liner and a compact 2-metre length so the wire feeds smoothly and without tangling.
Available in MT15 (up to 150 A) and MT25 (up to 250 A), with an ergonomic design that reduces fatigue and a stable arc with good penetration. It is the simplest way to set up your MIG welder to work with aluminium too.
Benefits
Teflon liner: low friction so the aluminium wire does not bend or jam.
2 m long: the short path improves feeding of the soft wire.
Two current ratings: MT15 up to 150 A or MT25 up to 250 A.
Ergonomic: comfortable grip during long shifts.
What it is for
MIG welding of aluminium and its alloys.
Aluminium fabrication workshops, marine and trailer work.
Equipping a MIG welder to work with aluminium as well.
Technical specifications
Process: aluminium MIG

Vetonek tip
For aluminium, use U-groove drive rolls and aluminium-specific contact tips, and do not overtighten the pressure roller: the soft wire gets crushed and jams. Keep the torch as straight as possible while welding.
Frequently asked questions
Why a special torch for aluminium?
The Teflon liner has less friction than a steel one and stops the soft aluminium wire from bending or jamming.
Can I use it with steel wire?
It is not recommended: steel wire wears the Teflon liner. For steel, use a torch with a steel liner.
MT15 or MT25?
Choose according to your machine's amperage: MT15 for welders up to 150 A and MT25 for machines up to 250 A.
Which tips do I need?
1.2 mm aluminium contact tips, available for MT15 and MT25.
Why is it only 2 metres long?
Because the shorter the path, the better the motor pushes the soft aluminium wire and the lower the risk of it tangling.
