PRODUCT UPDATE | Standardized AccuLock™ S Power Pin for Miller® Equipment
Effective September 14, 2026, Bernard® has standardized 2200137 as the Miller® power pin assembly for AccuLock™ S consumables, supporting applications using both Front Load and Rear Load Liners across our semi-automatic product offering.
As part of this product simplification, the following AccuLock™ S Miller power pin assemblies have been discontinued:
- 2200206 → replaced by 2200137
- 2200207 → replaced by 2200137
Why are we making this change?
The 2200206 and 2200207 power pin assemblies were originally introduced for AccuLock™ S – Front Load Liner applications with different wire size ranges. Following subsequent AccuLock™ S design improvements and product validation, separate Miller® power pin assemblies are no longer required.
The 2200137 power pin now provides a common Miller® connection for AccuLock™ S applications using either Front Load or Rear Load Liners, simplifying power pin selection, replacement parts, and inventory.
Customers currently using 2200206 or 2200207 should transition to 2200137 when ordering replacement power pin assemblies.
Front Load Liner Power Pin Cap Selection
When 2200137 is used with an AccuLock™ S – Front Load Liner, select the appropriate power pin cap based on wire size:
| Power Pin Cap | Washer Color | Compatible Wire Size |
| 2200351 | Yellow | 0.023″ (0.6 mm) – 0.030″ (0.8 mm) |
| 2200352 | Green | 0.030″ (0.8 mm) – 0.035″ (0.9 mm) |
| 2200353 | White | 0.035″ (0.9 mm) – 0.045″ (1.2 mm) |
| 2200354 | Red | 0.045″ (1.2 mm) – 1/16″ (1.6 mm) |
| 2200355 | Blue | 5/64″ (2.0 mm) |
| 2200356 | Grey | 3/32″ (2.4 mm) |
| 2200357 | Black | 7/64″ (2.8 mm) – 1/8″ (3.2 mm) |
What does this mean for existing guns?
No change is required to the AccuLock™ S consumable platform itself. The change consolidates Miller® power pin selection to 2200137.
For replacement orders:
If you previously ordered 2200206 or 2200207, order 2200137 going forward.
For assistance identifying the correct liner, power pin assembly, power pin cap, or other consumables for your application, please contact Bernard® Customer Service at 855.MIGWLED (644.9353) or CS@bernardtregaskiss.com.

PRODUCT UPDATE | QT-CPL: Neck coupler redesigned
Effective December 8, 2025, Bernard introduced an updated design for the Q-Neck Coupler (QT-CPL). This design improvement features our Dual Taper Technology and an increase to the overall length to enhance thread engagement when joining two rotatable necks, resulting in a more secure and reliable connection.
- Previous Design (left): 1.50 inches (5.72 cm)
- New Design (right): 2.25 inches (3.81 cm)
The Q-Neck Coupler is designed to connect any two rotatable necks, offering greater flexibility and reducing the need for custom-order necks.
The images above show the QT-CPL installed without an insulator for demonstration purposes only. Please operate your welding gun safely and always use 4423R insulator behind the coupler before installing onto the neck.
To explore the full range of rotatable necks available, please refer to our [Neck Spec Sheet].

Tregaskiss Redefines Performance With New Atlas™ Robotic ThruArm Air-Cooled MIG Torch
Tregaskiss Redefines Performance With New Atlas™ Robotic ThruArm Air-Cooled MIG Torch
Engineered for precision, built for uptime and designed to hit your mark
BEECHER, Ill./WINDSOR, Ontario (September 4, 2025) — Tregaskiss, a leading innovator in robotic welding solutions, introduces the Atlas™ robotic MIG welding torch — a next-generation, air-cooled ThruArm GMAW torch engineered to deliver unmatched efficiency, repeatable precision and simplified maintenance. Constructed to endure the demands of industrial environments, Atlas helps operators reduce downtime by up to 87% while ensuring consistent, high-quality welds.
Atlas raises the bar in robotic MIG welding and delivers a breakthrough in uptime and weld quality. Its robust construction and streamlined cable routing minimize unplanned downtime and maintenance, while producing high-quality welds across demanding applications.
“We took over three decades of experience and know-how in robotic MIG welding and unleashed our engineers to develop this revolutionary and innovative robotic A/C thru-arm torch,” said Andrew Marchand, director of engineering. “As a result, Atlas sets a new standard in the industry for installation time, TCP repeatability and ease of maintenance.”
Ideal for operations focused on automotive, heavy equipment and general manufacturing, Atlas sets a new standard with its toughness and accuracy. Key features and benefits include:
- Consistent tool center point (TCP): The keyed stainless steel neck construction provides superior rigidity, long-lasting positional features and increased neck-to-neck repeatability. Additionally, the isolated, separate mechanical and electrical functions, combined with a direct neck-to-cable connection, reduce performance issues.
- Maximized uptime: Tool-less cable change, predictive maintenance indicators and quick-change components reduce unplanned downtime and total service time.
- Designed for durability: Built tough to withstand harsh industrial environments, Atlas protects key components from debris and spatter and extends torch life.
- Streamlined maintenance: Intuitive features like captured fasteners, inspection windows and install confirmation indicators make servicing fast and foolproof.
- Engineered efficiency: The modular, optimized design drives better performance and simplifies training and maintenance.
The Atlas torch will officially debut at FABTECH 2025 this September, where attendees can experience its performance firsthand. Visit booth B20027 from September 8-11 to learn more about Atlas and how it can transform your robotic welding operations.

DISCONTINUED PRODUCT | 1780006, Semi-Automatic Air-Cooled Handle Kit
Effective August 22, 2025, Bernard will discontinue handle kit 1780006. Handle kit 1880198 can be ordered as a direct replacement, which includes handle halves, screws and posts. This handle also requires a spring strain relief, part number 2520042, to be installed at the base of the handle, enclosed between the handle halves.
Handle kit 1780086 was originally used as the large B Series handle (yellow trigger) for our 400amp semi-automatic air-cooled MIG gun but has not been the factory installed handle since 2014. This handle style does not accept a spring strain relief. Rather, the inner halves contained a molded “rib”, shown below, to close around the cable jacket and prevent debris from entering the handle through the bottom. The spring strain relief required for replacement handle kit 1880198 serves this function.
