Help identifying Mechafin torch model consumables

[Stupoty]

Hello,

I need to get some spares (consumables) for this torch , and I don't know what it is, the measurements don't seem to make any sense for consumables I'm seeing for other mig torches.

I'm after tip adapters I think or maybe a set of consumables.

They call it a glass diffuser rather than a tip adaptor.
Available to suit either 6mm or 8mm tips.
Are you sure the thread for the shroud is 24mm?
Not 21mm is it?

it's the OD of the shroud so the thread could be 21mm

Check the thread size.
If it's 21mm then it's probably a 300a or 350a torch.
It might have some numbers stamped near the base of the handle?

I'll did out the catalogue and see if I can find the part nunbers

Hello,

Thanks for the help, the shroud thread is 21mm as you say , the 11.7mm od is confising me as the me300 spairs seem to be an m10 , i have taken a punt on some cheep new old stock diffusers , part number 54002

Hears hopeing

Right,
That's a 350a torch. Hence the M12 gas nozzle.
It's a ME350A I think (unless it's watercooled?)

Parweld make a clone, MXA363,
Parts for that might be easier to find?

The gas shrouds I ordered seemed to have the part number for Mechafin and murex torches ,fingures crossed.

Has the 350 been discontinued ? as I couldn't find a pdf for it on the Mechafin site.

Thanks for the help,

Stu

That shroud should be the right one.
350 is just the series, the actual model number will change depending on the length of the cable, neck angle and so on...
The mechafin website is not much use for finding parts though even if you knew the model number of the torch.
But all the end parts are the same on any of the gas cooled 350 ones.

Parts list for the parweld equivalent but the oem mechafin numbers are on there as well

Links seem to work just no preview.

So your saying the "MRX Diffusers , C style M8 tip M12" , I think this is the size I have ordered , I used calipers to measure and got a fairly solid 11.7 O.D. for the diffuser thread so it can't be M11 , I should check it's not the BSP thread I didn't know that was a thing, that would be hilarious

I think the BSP is only fitted.to the 500a torches.
And they all have 24mm threads.for the shrouds

So the random new old stock gas difusers turned up last night

Sucess , yay

Thanks ,
