Lincoln Electric Replacement Filter for X-Tractor 3G/4G/5A

Breathe Easier with a Fresh X-Tractor Filter

If your Lincoln X-Tractor isn't pulling fumes like it used to, it's likely time to swap out the main filter element. The KP2061-1 is the genuine replacement cartridge for the X-Tractor 3G, 4G, and 5A portable fume extractors. We all know that a clogged filter kills suction. You can run the cleaning cycle a few times, but eventually, that dust packs in tight, and the machine just makes noise without moving air. That's when you need this replacement to get your extraction power back to 100%.

Welding fumes aren't just annoying; they are a serious health hazard. Whether you are burning flux-cored wire, stick welding on galvanized steel, or just doing standard MIG work, capturing that smoke at the source is the best way to keep your lungs clear. This polyester filter cartridge is built tough to handle the fine particulates found in welding smoke. It has a large surface area to trap a huge amount of dust before it restricts airflow, giving you longer run times between changes compared to cheaper alternatives.

Changing a dirty filter can be a messy job, and frankly, you don't want to breathe in the concentrated junk you just spent weeks filtering out of the air. Lincoln Electric thought ahead on this one. Every KP2061-1 box comes with a "change-out kit" right inside. You get a dust mask to wear during the swap, a pair of gloves so you don't get the grime on your hands, and a heavy-duty plastic bag to seal up the old filter immediately. This keeps the nasty stuff contained so you can toss it in the trash without creating a cloud of dust in the shop.

Don't let a clogged filter compromise your safety or your view of the puddle. When the red light comes on or you feel that suction drop, grab a KP2061-1. It fits perfectly into the K633-1 and K1489 series machines, sealing tight to ensure all the air goes through the filter, not around it. Keep your X-Tractor running like new and keep the shop air breathable with this essential maintenance part.
