OVERVIEW

Heavy-Duty Conduit for ESAB ST-16 MIG Systems

The ESAB 46V68 is a specialized replacement conduit (liner) assembly designed specifically for the ESAB/L-Tec ST-16 series of MIG welding guns. Engineered for heavy industrial applications, this liner is constructed to handle large diameter welding wires, specifically up to 3/32 inch (2.4 mm). This makes it an essential component for operations utilizing heavy flux-cored wires or large solid wires in structural steel fabrication, shipbuilding, and heavy equipment manufacturing.

Proper wire feeding is critical to weld quality and arc stability. Over time, liners can become clogged with debris, kinked, or worn down by the abrasive action of the welding wire, leading to erratic feeding, burn-backs, and increased downtime. The 46V68 offers a direct OEM fit for 10-foot cable assemblies, ensuring seamless installation and optimal performance. Its robust steel spiral construction provides the necessary rigidity and low-friction path required to push heavy wires over distance without buckling.

By maintaining your equipment with genuine ESAB parts like the 46V68 conduit, you ensure the longevity of your welding torch and the consistency of your welding parameters. This component is part of the legacy support for the durable ST-16 platform, keeping trusted equipment operational in demanding environments.

FAQ

The 46V68 is designed for the ESAB (formerly L-Tec) ST-16 series MIG guns.

This conduit is rated for welding wires up to 3/32 inch (2.4 mm) in diameter.

This liner is designed for 10-foot gun cable assemblies.

This is a steel spiral-wound liner, suitable for steel and flux-cored wires. It is not recommended for aluminum wire.

While it can physically fit smaller wires, using a liner significantly larger than the wire diameter can lead to poor arc stability due to lack of support. It is best used for its rated size range (approx 1/16" to 3/32").

Signs include erratic wire feeding, the wire sticking or slipping at the drive rolls, or visible kinks when the liner is removed for inspection.

Yes, this is a genuine ESAB replacement part.

This product typically includes the conduit assembly itself. Retention hardware is usually part of the gun assembly, but check your specific torch manual.
