Equipment description
Kemppi SuperSnake GTX subfeeder is a combined solution for distance wire feeding and restricted access welding with or without water cooling. It extends the reach of MIG/MAG welding guns up to 30 meters, providing simple distance wire feeding for a variety of filler wires.
SuperSnake GTX subfeeder is delivered with Kemppi's steel spiral wire liner by default. DL Chili wire liner is available as an option.
