Kemppi SuperSnake GT02S: The Industrial “Snake” Sub-Feeder

The Kemppi SuperSnake GT02S is a high-performance motorized sub-feeder that extends your welding reach by up to \(30\text{m}\). Known as the “Snake,” it ensures smooth, synchronized wire delivery and gives the operator full parameter control at the point of welding, perfect for shipyards and large-scale steel fabrication.

  • 30-Meter Reach: Move freely around large workpieces without moving the power source.
  • Motorized Wire Feeding: Internal drive rolls eliminate wire drag and “bird-nesting.”
  • Full Remote Control: Adjust wire speed and voltage directly on the sub-feeder.
  • Industrial Durability: Slim, rugged design for the toughest site conditions.

Description

The Kemppi SuperSnake GT02S is the ultimate solution for extending the reach of your MIG/MAG welding setup. Commonly referred to in the industry as “The Snake,” the GT02S is a motorized sub-feeder that acts as an intermediary between the main wire feeder and the welding gun. It allows welders to work at distances of up to \(30\text{m}\) from the power source, making it an indispensable tool for heavy-duty fabrication in shipyards, steel construction, and large-scale industrial projects.

 

Key Features:

  • Extended Operational Range: Available in lengths of \(10\text{m}\), \(15\text{m}\), \(20\text{m}\), and \(30\text{m}\), eliminating the need to move heavy welding machines across the workshop floor.
  • Synchronized 2-Roll Drive System: Features its own internal drive motor that works in perfect harmony with the main wire feeder. This ensures a constant, slip-free wire feed speed (\(m/\text{min}\)) even through long, curved cable runs.
  • On-Board Parameter Control: Equipped with integrated adjustment knobs for wire feed speed and voltage, allowing the welder to fine-tune settings directly at the workspace without walking back to the machine.
  • Compatible with Standard Torches: The GT02S utilizes a standard Euro-connector, allowing you to attach your preferred Flexlite GX or other MIG/MAG welding guns directly to the sub-feeder unit.
  • Robust Protective Frame: Encased in a slim, high-visibility protective cage that allows the unit to be safely dragged through manholes or across steel grating.
  • Automatic Wire Inch: Features a dedicated button for automated wire loading, significantly speeding up the process of feeding a new spool through the long “Snake” assembly.

Technical Specifications:

  • Part Numbers: GT02S (Gas-Cooled) / GT02SW (Water-Cooled).
  • Compatible Power Sources: Kemppi FastMig M, FastMig X, and KMS series.
  • Wire Types: Optimized for Fe, Ss, Al, and Flux-Cored wires.
  • Wire Speed Range: \(0\) to \(25\text{m}/\text{min}\).
  • Drive Mechanism: 2-Roll Drive (GT02S).
  • Weight: Lightweight design for manual portability.
