SPOOL GUN SOLUTIONS  
Spool Guns offer an affordable way to reliably feed soft aluminum wire. Since spool guns feed small 4 inch spools of wire a short  
distance it provides a reliable feeding solution that prevents wire jams and tangles. The POWER MIG® 215XT provides three choices  
of spool gun solutions form the cost effective light duty Magnum® 100SG for occasional aluminum projects to the premium heavy  
duty Magnum® 250LX which is designed for day in day out aluminum welding applications.
