OVERVIEW

Lincoln Electric KP2879-5 180° Expendable Liner Overview

The Lincoln Electric KP2879-5 is a specialized expendable liner designed to maintain peak performance in your Magnum PRO 250LX and Magnum PRO 250LX GT MIG guns. Welding with a fume extraction gun or a specialized torch often involves complex geometries, such as 180-degree barrel bends, which can place significant stress on the welding wire. This liner is engineered specifically to guide wire ranging from .025 inches to 3/64 inches through these tight curves without kinking or shaving, ensuring a stable arc and consistent weld quality.

Rated for up to 550 Amps, this heavy-duty liner is built to withstand the heat and friction associated with industrial welding environments. It serves as a critical maintenance component for welders using the 180-degree barrel configuration. Over time, liners can become clogged with debris or worn down by the constant friction of the feeding wire. Replacing your barrel liner with this genuine Lincoln Electric part restores smooth feeding capabilities, reduces downtime caused by bird-nesting, and extends the service life of your MIG gun assembly.

Installation is straightforward, designed to fit perfectly within the neck assembly of the compatible Magnum PRO models. Whether you are working in heavy fabrication or precision manufacturing, ensuring your wire delivery system is free of obstructions is key to productivity. The KP2879-5 provides the reliability professional welders expect from Lincoln Electric products.
