AccuLock™ S Consumables with conventional rear-load liners are now available on select Miller® Packages including:
We’re offering rear load liners with AccuLock S consumables to make it as easy as possible to convert existing fleets of BTB MIG Guns from Centerfire™ or TOUGH LOCK® to AccuLock S consumables. To convert your current guns from Centerfire or TOUGH LOCK to AccuLock consumables, simply swap out the nozzle, diffuser and contact tip. You can continue to use your existing rear load liner without retrimming. Later, when you want the additional benefits offered by the front load liner, you can upgrade your existing guns by swapping out the diffuser, liner and power pin cap or you can begin purchasing new guns with the full AccuLock S system.
Click here to download the AccuLock S Consumables Conversion Guide for Miller Packages. This detailed guide contains all the part numbers needed to convert your existing guns to AccuLock or to re-order the AccuLock consumables that came with your Miller package.
TOUGH GUN® clamps and mounting arms are made of tough yet resilient aluminum. These products are engineered to provide a robust and durable connection for the TOUGH GUN CA3 robotic air-cooled MIG gun.
The TOUGH GUN clutch clamp triggers an emergency stop in the event of a robotic collision and its new compact design allows for a larger working envelope. The TOUGH GUN solid mount clamp is available for clutchless models, offering the same increased working envelope.
Insulating discs help to protect your robotic investment by insulating robots and their controllers from the weld current, and are available with different bolt patterns for attaching TOUGH GUN robotic MIG guns to various brands of robots.
For applications where verification of tooling is a requirement, the TOUGH GUN neck checking fixture provides the opportunity to verify the accuracy of the neck to the intended tool center point (TCP). Further, an adjustment handle is provided to help implement minor adjustments if required.
Compatible with TOUGH GUN CA3 and legacy TOUGH GUN G1 series robotic air-cooled MIG guns, the original TOUGH GUN clutch is designed to e-stop your robot with a deflection of only 1° in the event of a robotic collision.
Made of high-strength aluminum, the TOUGH GUN solid arm mount can replace a clutch on TOUGH GUN CA3 and legacy TOUGH GUN G1 series systems using collision detection software.
Bernard and Tregaskiss offer a comprehensive selection of feeder connections for the most popular wire feeder models on the market. Select from the following:
Power pins provide a direct connection for wire, electrical current and gas flow between various wire feeder to MIG welding guns.
Quick-connect blocks and adaptors provide an adaptive bridge from your existing welding gun power pin to a different kind of feeder connection.
Control plugs transmit an on/off signal from the semi-automatic MIG gun trigger to the feeder as well as the dual schedule control (if equipped).
Bernard and Tregaskiss offer various rear load, innovative front load, and other revolutionary MIG welding liner solutions.
Load and Lock for Better Productivity
Load your liners from the front of the MIG gun in less than half the time it takes to install conventional liners.
Ideal for aluminum, steel, stainless steel and flux-cored wire, rear load liners are made of high carbon music wire for smooth wire feed and long life.
Genuine Bernard® and Tregaskiss® consumables enhance the performance of your MIG welding gun. They are manufactured to the same durable, high-performance standards as every MIG welding product we build, and they deliver the improved performance you’ve come to know and expect from us.
Load and lock for better productivity
Load and lock for better throughput
Vibration, heating and cooling cycles, severe rotational movement, the whipping action of the cable, and the occasional crash require a durable robotic MIG welding gun. Tregaskiss® robotic MIG guns are tough enough to meet the challenge! All robotic MIG guns are built-to-order and come ready to rumble right out of the box.
Automated welding applications require flexible, repeatable solutions that maximize production uptime and throughput while minimizing costs. This is why industrial manufacturers rely on Tregaskiss and its proven track record for delivering reliable, resilient, repeatable and fully configurable robotic MIG welding guns, fixed automatic MIG guns, nozzle cleaning stations and innovative welding gun consumables.
You need reliable MIG guns, consumables and welding products that are readily available and offer consistent performance. Simplicity, ease of maintenance and durability are always part of our design specifications.
Consider the impact of MIG guns on your business. As much as 85% of hand-held welding costs are labor related. What is the real cost of using outdated equipment with poor ergonomics and excessive consumable and replacement part inventories?
The Bernard team can help all of your welders configure the MIG gun that is perfectly suited to their preferences and welding applications while keeping related parts and consumables to a minimum. Happy and healthy welders are productive welders – a win-win for all involved!
Choose between two fully configurable industrial-duty semi-automatic water-cooled MIG gun lines, both engineered for superior performance in production environments requiring extremely high-heat applications.

Our built-to-order MIG guns keep on welding in the harshest and most abusive environments. The innovative Double-life MIG gun system* from Bernard allows you to extend the life of your BTB semi-automatic air-cooled MIG gun equipped with a T Series or C Series straight handle.
BTB MIG guns with T Series and C Series straight handles have identical front and back handles and internal connections. Once the front end of the cable becomes worn, simply flip-flop the neck and trigger from the front end of the gun with the power pin on the back.
This results in a newer front handle to work with and the worn handle and cable moves to the feeder end of the MIG gun, extending the life of your gun.
*The Double-life MIG gun system is not compatible with B Series curved, B Series small curved, O Series curved, O Series small curved, or T Series small straight handle styles, or to any handle style if the MIG gun is equipped with Bernard®, OXO™ or Euro power pin options.
We’ve added a second taper at the rear of our TOUGH LOCK® retaining heads feature a second taper at the rear, so there is one taper for the contact tip connection and a second for the neck.
Dual taper technology creates a more secure seat, preventing the contact tip and retaining head from loosening due to vibration.
