    Abimig AT 355 LW FAQs

    Straight answers on choosing, fitting and looking after a larger lightweight air-cooled MIG torch and its short, long and flexible necks.

    Who is a lightweight air-cooled torch in this larger size class suited to?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    A torch in this class suits welders who need more current capacity than a light-duty torch gives, for general fabrication, structural work and thicker steel, while still wanting a lighter, easier-handling lead than a heavy-duty torch. Air cooling keeps the set-up simple, with no water cooler to maintain.

    For very long, continuous welds at high current, a water-cooled torch is usually a better choice. Compare the torch's rating for your gas and duty cycle with the work you actually do, and leave some margin.

    When is a flexible neck better than a fixed swan neck?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    A flexible neck can be bent to suit each joint, which is useful when you weld in many different positions or in confined spaces and do not want to change necks. A fixed swan neck holds its angle exactly, which suits repeat work where the same torch angle is wanted every time.

    A flexible neck should be bent gently and not forced into tight, repeated kinks, as this can wear it out or damage the parts inside. Always follow the maker's instructions for how far the neck can be bent.

    Which cable length should I choose?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    Choose the shortest length that lets you reach the work from the wire feeder without pulling on the machine. An overly long cable tends to tangle and puts extra strain on the liner, while a cable that is too short pulls on the power source and stresses the connections.

    Plan where the machine will sit and how far you need to move. In use, keep the cable as straight as practical and clear of vehicles, moving equipment and sharp edges.

    How do I choose the right liner for my wire?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    The liner must suit both the wire material and the diameter. Steel liners suit steel wire, whereas a plastic-type liner (such as PTFE or nylon) is generally used for aluminium wire, because the softer wire needs a low-friction path. A liner that is too tight causes jamming and shaving, and one that is too loose lets the wire buckle.

    Never run a torch without a liner. Check the torch manual for the right liner and bore whenever you change wire type or size.
