NORTH 350A GAS COOLED PUSH-PULL TORCH 8M

by North
Part No: PW5000A

Precision Wire Feeding for Aluminum & Long-Reach MIG/MAG Welding

The NORTH 350A Gas-Cooled Push-Pull Torch (8M) is a heavy-duty push-pull welding gun engineered for consistent wire feeding over extended cable lengths β€” making it the ideal choice for aluminum welding, robotic integration, and industrial fabrication where standard MIG guns struggle with wire feed reliability. Built by Jinan North Welding Tools Co., Ltd., a trusted OEM manufacturer of MIG/MAG welding torches, this gas-cooled push-pull gun combines a dual-motor drive system with rugged, insulated components for smooth, tangle-free wire delivery even with soft aluminum and thin-gauge wire.

Key Features

  • Push-Pull Wire Feed System – A motorized drive unit at the torch handle works in tandem with your wire feeder, "pulling" wire through the liner while it's being "pushed," dramatically reducing birdnesting, wire buckling, and feed interruptions β€” especially critical for aluminum MIG welding.
  • Gas-Cooled (Air-Cooled) Design – Cooled by the shielding gas flow rather than a water circulation system, this torch is lightweight, low-maintenance, and ready to work without a separate water cooler β€” perfect for job sites and workshops without water-cooling infrastructure.
  • 350A Rated Output – Delivers a 350A rating on mixed gas (with higher COβ‚‚ capacity) at a 40% duty cycle, giving you reliable power for medium-to-heavy welding tasks without overheating.
  • 8-Meter Cable Length – The extended 8m torch cable gives welders greater reach and mobility around large workpieces, fixtures, and robotic welding cells, minimizing repositioning and downtime.
  • Precision Drive Rolls – Fitted with dedicated push and drive rolls (0.8–1.2mm wire capacity) for accurate, slip-free wire feeding on both steel and aluminum wire.
  • Insulated Motor & Gear Assembly – Fully insulated motor housing, insulation rings, and washers protect internal electronics from arc current and heat, extending torch service life.
  • Ergonomic Handle & Trigger Switch – A comfort-grip handle with a long-life trigger switch and adjustable potentiometer knob gives operators fine control over wire speed on the fly.
  • Interchangeable Torch Neck Options – Available with 0Β° straight neck or 45Β° gooseneck configurations to suit different joint access and welding positions.
  • Euro-Style Connector Compatibility – Fitted with a standard Euro gun plug (with multi-pin connector options for major welding machine brands), allowing easy integration with existing MIG/MAG welding power sources.

Why Choose the NORTH 350A Gas-Cooled Push-Pull Torch?

Long cable runs are notoriously difficult for standard single-drive MIG guns, particularly when feeding soft aluminum wire β€” the wire tends to bunch, kink, or jam before it ever reaches the contact tip. The NORTH 350A push-pull torch solves this problem with a synchronized push-pull mechanism that actively assists wire travel through the entire 8-meter cable, resulting in smoother arc starts, fewer feed faults, and higher weld quality on aluminum, stainless steel, and mild steel applications alike.

Whether you're outfitting a robotic welding cell, upgrading a fabrication shop's MIG station, or need a dependable long-reach torch for structural and pipe welding, this gas-cooled push-pull gun delivers industrial-grade durability backed by North's precision manufacturing standards.

Ideal Applications

  • Aluminum MIG welding (push-pull feed prevents wire buckling)
  • Long-reach or hard-to-access welding positions
  • Robotic and automated MIG/MAG welding cells
  • General fabrication, structural steel, and pipeline welding
  • Workshops requiring a maintenance-friendly, water-free cooling solution

Available Configurations

  • 6M / 8M cable lengths
  • 0Β° or 45Β° torch neck options
  • Compatible drive rolls and consumables sized for 0.8–1.2mm wire
