Binzel MB 25 question

[yoshie]

Hi, my MIG uses a MB 15 but unfortunately the hose was damaged cutting the the trigger wiring, the gas hose and partially severing the braided earth. Any way I have access to a new Binzel MB25 which looks a very good quality torch but the instructions say the wire size should be 0.08-1.00, I often use 0.6 for car panels, with the correct size tip would there be any problems using 0.6.

Thanks in advance

It will work just fine. And even if it didn't, you can change the liner to correct size for 0.6.
Biggest issue will be getting into tight spots with the bigger torch body on a Mb25 compared to a Mb25. Not quite as handy.

We had a new 5 meter torch which a RSJ tipped over on cutting all but the gas hose i found it was not to big a job to remove damaged length & re build it worked all right for the last 2 years even if it is only 4Mtr's now.
Whats loss is there if it does not work.

Thanks for the answers, I thought it would be OK but just wanted to check. I'll have a go at repairing it but the hose ends are crimped, still nothing to loose.

Used these think it cost about £4 & a bit of a fiddle
