KEMPPI SUPERSNAKE GTX WATER 15M PACKAGE, 50MM2

SuperSnake GTX WATER 15m Package, 50mm² — P405GTX

The Kemppi SuperSnake GTX WATER 15m Package extends MIG/MAG welding reach to 15 metres with water-cooled torch capability, 50mm² cable, and synchronized twin-drive sub-feeder. Compatible with X5 FastMig and Master M 353/355/358 water-cooled systems. Includes metal protection cage.

What Is the Kemppi SuperSnake GTX WATER 15m Package?

The Kemppi SuperSnake GTX WATER 15m Package (P405GTX) is a synchronized MIG/MAG sub-feeder system that extends the effective welding reach to 15 metres from the primary wire feeder using a 50mm² water-cooled cable package. It is the water-cooled equivalent of the P401GTX — designed specifically for X5 FastMig and Master M water-cooled system configurations where sustained high-output production welding and cooled torch performance are required at distance.

The water-cooled cable carries cooling water from the primary water cooling system through the full 15m cable run to the water-cooled torch at the work end, maintaining active torch cooling throughout the weld regardless of distance from the machine.

The package includes the SuperSnake GTX motor drive unit, 15m water-cooled 50mm² cable, and the metal protection cage as standard.

Compatible with X5 FastMig wire feeders in water-cooled configuration (with SuperSnake Kit X5 Feeder X5702030000 installed) and Master M 353, 355, and 358 machines in water-cooled configurations.

Key Features

Water-Cooled Cable — Active Torch Cooling at 15 Metres The 50mm² water-cooled cable carries cooling water from the primary X5 Cooler or Master M cooler unit through the interconnection system to the water-cooled torch at the work location. Active cooling is maintained over the full 15m distance — enabling sustained high-output production welding without torch thermal interruptions regardless of distance from the machine.

Extended Torch Consumable Life at Distance Active water cooling at the torch end maintains lower contact tip and nozzle operating temperatures throughout the weld — extending consumable life and reducing changeover frequency on high-volume production runs, even at 15m from the primary system.

Synchronized Twin-Drive Wire Feed The compact, quick-release twin-drive mechanism synchronizes wire delivery with the primary wire feeder across the full 15m cable run — critical in water-cooled production configurations where arc interruptions from inconsistent wire delivery are unacceptable.

On-Hand Parameter Adjustment Wire feed speed, voltage, and synergic AUTO or manual modes are all accessible at the GTX unit at the work location — essential when the work point is 15m from the primary feeder across ship structure, large vessels, or industrial plant.

Clear LED Digital Display Welding voltage, amperage, wire feed speed, process, and polarity are displayed clearly at the torch end. Post-weld data retained for approximately 30 seconds.

Metal Protection Cage — Included The metal cage secures the water-cooled cable package, hoses, and connectors, enables overhead suspension, and supports safe crane lifting with a 4-leg hoist strap. Particularly valuable in water-cooled configurations where hose integrity must be maintained through confined access points.

Safety Isolation Switch ON/OFF safety lock switch prevents accidental arc activation while repositioning or during water circuit connection/disconnection at the work location.

Wire Inch and Gas Test Buttons Pre-weld setup and gas flow verification at the work location without requiring a second operator at the primary machine.

Standard Euro Gun Connector Accepts any standard Euro-connected water-cooled MIG/MAG torch — no proprietary connector or adapter required.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions:

What is the difference between the P401GTX and P405GTX? Both packages include a 15m SuperSnake GTX cable at 50mm² cross-section. The P401GTX is gas-cooled for use with air-cooled torch setups. The P405GTX is water-cooled — the cable carries active cooling water from the primary cooling unit to the water-cooled torch, enabling sustained high-output welding at 15m distance with full torch thermal management.

What cooling unit is required for the P405GTX? The P405GTX requires a compatible water cooling unit connected to the primary welding system — either the X5 Cooler (separate unit, for X5 FastMig water-cooled systems) or the integrated cooler in Master M W/WM water-cooled machines. The SuperSnake GTX water-cooled cable carries cooling water from this unit through the 15m cable to the water-cooled torch.

What does the P405GTX package include? The P405GTX includes the SuperSnake GTX motor drive unit, a 15m 50mm² water-cooled cable package, and the metal protection cage. Drive rolls, water-cooled torch, and cooling unit are not included.

Does the P405GTX work with the X5 FastMig water-cooled system? Yes — the SuperSnake Kit X5 Feeder (X5702030000) must be installed on the X5 wire feeder to enable subfeeder synchronization. The X5 water-cooled system (power source + X5 Cooler + APC feeder) must be correctly configured for water-cooled operation before connecting the P405GTX. Contact QWS to confirm your full system configuration.

Can the P405GTX be used with an air-cooled torch? No. The P405GTX is a water-cooled cable package designed for use with water-cooled torch configurations only. For air-cooled torch setups at 15m, use the P401GTX gas-cooled package.
