Welding
jobs can be time consuming without the proper tools. The new Snap-on Flexible Neck MIG Torch
(CKS15FN1030) allows users to weld the top of an exhaust pipe without lowering
the exhaust system, increasing productivity so welding jobs can be completed
more efficiently, said the company.

“Our new Flexible
Neck MIG torch allows our customers to mock-up an exhaust system, weld completely
360-degrees around each of the joints, all without having to lower the system
to gain access,” said Mike DeKeuster, category manager for Snap-on. “The
Flexible Neck MIG Torch provides increased accessibility to the top of the pipe
especially when there is limited space due to an obstruction such as the
floorboard. This is a great time saver for the service technician, and
virtually eliminates the need to loosen up exhaust hangers and flanges. The
CKS15FN1030 is particularly useful when replacing flex-pipes commonly found on
Asian vehicles. The flex-pipes are prone to leakage and require a welded joint
after replacement. The flexible neck on this torch provides adequate
accessibility to weld these joints without having to remove the pipe from the
vehicle.”

With its flexible neck, the Snap-on
Flexible Neck MIG Torch (CKS15FN1030) can be placed in an infinite number of
positions. The CKS15FN1030 includes the torch and cable and is designed to work
only with the Snap-on welding machines:
MM140SL, MM250SL, MM350XL, MIG140, MIG220, YA212AIND and FM140A.
