The GEN43115 Liner Assembly is a high-performance aftermarket component designed to meet or exceed the specifications of the original Bernard 43115 liner. Engineered for industrial durability, this liner is compatible with a wide range of Bernard-style MIG guns, including the popular Q-Gun, S-Gun, and T-Gun series, as well as the newer BTB (Best of the Best) platform. It is specifically manufactured to accommodate welding wire diameters ranging from 0.035 inches to 0.045 inches, making it a versatile choice for general fabrication, structural steel, and heavy equipment manufacturing.
Constructed from high-tensile carbon steel wire, this liner features a precise winding pitch that ensures low friction and consistent wire feeding. The internal surface is polished to minimize drag, which is critical for maintaining a stable arc and preventing wire chatter. At 15 feet in length, it is sized for standard long-reach MIG guns, providing the necessary conduit for wire to travel from the feeder to the contact tip without kinking or buckling. The liner assembly includes the necessary crimped fitting at the back end for secure seating in the power pin, ensuring optimal gas sealing and mechanical stability.
Proper liner maintenance is essential for weld quality. Over time, copper dust, dirt, and drawing lubricants can accumulate inside the liner, increasing friction and causing feeding issues. This replacement liner restores the gun's performance, eliminating common problems such as bird-nesting at the drive rolls or erratic wire stick-out. It is suitable for use with solid mild steel wires, metal-cored wires, and flux-cored wires. For optimal performance, it is recommended to blow out the liner with compressed air during wire changes and to replace the liner periodically in high-production environments.
Installation of the GEN43115 follows standard industry procedures. The liner is supplied with ample length to be trimmed to the exact requirement of the specific gun model. Precise trimming is crucial; a liner that is too short can cause micro-arcing inside the diffuser, while one that is too long may cause kinking. This product offers a cost-effective solution for MRO professionals seeking reliable performance without the premium price tag of OEM consumables.
