The Lincoln Electric K126-2 Magnum® Classic is a premier choice for self-shielded flux-cored arc welding (FCAW-SS), widely recognized as an industry standard for structural steel fabrication and heavy equipment repair. Engineered for durability and performance, this semi-automatic air-cooled gun is rated at 350 amps with a 60% duty cycle, meeting rigorous NEMA EW3 specifications. It is designed to handle wire diameters ranging from .062 inches to 3/32 inches (1.6 mm to 2.4 mm), making it versatile for a broad spectrum of heavy-duty applications.
This model features a 15-foot (4.5 meter) cable, providing significant reach for welders working on large assemblies or in field erection environments. The gun is equipped with a 62-degree tube angle, which offers a comfortable ergonomic balance for the operator, reducing wrist strain during prolonged welding sessions. A key component of the K126-2's reliability is its heavy-duty trigger switch, designed for positive electrical contact and long operational life even in dusty or dirty conditions common to construction sites.
Durability is further enhanced by the reinforced rubber jacket that encases the cable, adding substantial strength and resistance to cuts, burns, and abrasion. The K126-2 is not just tough; it is also designed for maintenance efficiency. It utilizes the robust KP series consumables, including severe duty contact tips and insulated guides, ensuring consistent arc performance. The gun comes ready to feed, including a selection of contact tips (5/64, 3/32, and 7/64 inch) and a stickout guide, allowing operators to get to work immediately. For specialized access, the gun tube can be swapped with alternate angles (sold separately), providing flexibility for difficult-to-reach welds.
Whether used in shipbuilding, bridge construction, or pipe fabrication, the Lincoln K126-2 delivers the consistent wire feeding and rugged dependability required by professional welders using Innershield® wires.
