OVERVIEW

Stop Electrode Sticking with the K202

Frustrated by welding wire sticking in the crater at the end of a pass? The Lincoln Electric K202 Burnback Kit is the solution you need for your LN-8 or LN-9 wire feeder. When welding at high wire feed speeds, the wire often has enough momentum to continue feeding slightly after you release the trigger. If the power cuts immediately, that wire plunges into the cooling weld pool and freezes. This kit provides an adjustable timer that keeps the power energized for a fraction of a second longer, burning back the wire to the perfect stick-out length and preventing it from fusing to the work.

Safety and Convenience Added

This kit isn't just about weld quality; it's about usability. It includes a Cold Inch switch, a feature every welder appreciates. With Cold Inch, you can thread new wire through your torch cable safely without the risk of the wire becoming electrically

FAQ

The K202 provides an adjustable delay for the power source output shut-off to prevent the electrode from sticking in the weld crater at the end of a weld.

This kit is specifically designed for use with Lincoln Electric LN-8 and LN-9 wire feeders.

A Cold Inch switch allows the operator to feed wire through the gun without energizing the welding power source or opening the gas solenoid, which is safer for setup.

At high speeds, the motor and wire have momentum. Without a burnback delay, the wire may continue to feed into the freezing puddle after the arc is cut, causing it to stick.

Yes, it is particularly beneficial for automated applications where consistent weld termination and automatic resetting for the next cycle are critical.

Yes, the K202 provides an adjustable delay to fine-tune the burnback based on your specific welding parameters.

The kit includes the burnback timer module, a cold inch switch, and necessary mounting hardware.

No, the K202 is engineered specifically for the electrical and mechanical configuration of Lincoln LN-8 and LN-9 feeders.
