Hehe, weldequip what's that the 100'th time you have posted that pic
To the OP, he'll set you up with a good reliable reg. Must have sold dozens to users on this forum. You may want too look at using argon/co2 mixes for better welds. If you change later, he can sell and adapter (works on his reg as many low-end CO2 regs are not rated at 300 bar.)
I'm only trying to help Shenion Some people just go off to eBay & buy an inferior Chinese version for the sake of saving a couple of quid, which is frustrating, but they'll pay more in the long run when it F***s up
Agree with the argonmix job aswell... definately the best shielding gas.

This is going to sound a bit dumb but how does that fit the small pipe on my welder?.
I got a pub gas bottle off me mate but now ive been told that its no good as it had CO2 in it and it looks like i,ll have to rent one from BOC. Do you know if the bottles they rent would be ok to use with it?
Cheers
The little pipe on the back of your machine pushes into that chrome fitting at the end of the industrial bore pipe.
The regulator fitting for Argoshield is a different, female fitting so you would need a different gas regulator.

using this kit from weldequip takes seconds to install,, i use the same regulator kit (bought from weldequip) to run co2 on both of my mig's,, co2 welds ok but argon co2 mix is better im just a cheapskate lol
