OVERVIEW

Smooth Feeding for Heavy Wire Applications

When you are pushing heavy wire like 1/16" or 5/64", the smallest misalignment in your feeder can cause big headaches. The Lincoln Electric W6000805 Outlet Guide is designed to keep your operation running smoothly by ensuring your wire transitions perfectly from the drive rolls into your gun cable. No more fighting with birdnests or erratic feeding caused by worn-out guides.

This is a genuine Lincoln Electric part, meaning it fits your feeder exactly as intended without the need for modification. Over time, outlet guides can wear down, creating sharp edges or keyholing that scrapes your wire and creates drag. By swapping in a fresh guide, you protect your liner from debris and ensure that your wire speed stays consistent at the contact tip. Consistent wire speed means a stable arc and better weld quality.

Installation is straightforward, allowing you to get back to welding quickly. Whether you are running flux-cored wire or solid MIG wire in these larger diameters, this guide provides the support needed to prevent buckling. Don't let a small, inexpensive part compromise your heavy-duty welding projects; keep your feeder in top shape with the right outlet guide.
