OVERVIEW

Genuine ESAB Replacement Liner for Soft Wires

Maximize the performance of your ESAB MIG gun with the ESAB Yellow PTFE Liner. Engineered specifically for Aluminum and Stainless Steel applications, this liner is a critical component for any welder looking to achieve defect-free welds with soft filler metals. The liner is constructed from high-quality PTFE, a material renowned for its slick, non-stick properties, which drastically reduces the coefficient of friction inside the torch cable.

This specific model is color-coded Yellow, indicating its compatibility with 1.2mm (0.045") welding wires. Using the correct size liner is paramount; a liner that is too large can cause the wire to wander, leading to an unstable arc, while a liner that is too tight will cause feeding jams. ESAB's precision manufacturing ensures optimal clearance for 1.2mm wires, promoting smooth delivery from the feeder to the contact tip.

Why Choose PTFE?

Standard steel liners are abrasive and can scrape small shavings off soft aluminum wires. These shavings accumulate in the liner, eventually clogging the gun and stopping production. The ESAB PTFE liner eliminates this issue, providing a clean, smooth path for the wire. It is highly recommended for use with push-pull guns or standard push guns with shorter cable lengths when welding aluminum.

Features:

  • Optimized for 1.2mm (0.045") Aluminum and Stainless Steel wire.
  • Durable PTFE construction resists heat and wear.
  • Yellow external coding for workshop organization.
  • Direct replacement for compatible ESAB MIG torches.

FAQ

This liner is made of PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene), commonly known as Teflon, which provides a low-friction path for welding wire.

It is not recommended. Steel wire is abrasive and can cut into the soft PTFE material, leading to rapid wear. Use a steel spiral liner for steel wires.

In this ESAB series, the yellow color typically indicates compatibility with 1.2mm (0.045") diameter wire.

Aluminum wire is soft and prone to kinking or buckling (bird-nesting) if it encounters friction. A PTFE liner reduces this friction significantly compared to steel liners.

Remove the old liner from the back of the gun, unroll the new liner, insert it fully until it seats against the gas diffuser (or as per gun manual), and trim the excess at the back end.

Yes, this is a genuine ESAB replacement part, ensuring perfect fit and performance with compatible ESAB equipment.

This product listing is for the liner itself. Check your specific gun manual to see if additional collets or O-rings are required or if they are reused.
