21167 - ESAB 0.035 Guide Tube Liner Replacement

Keep Your Wire Running Smoothly

Every welder knows the frustration of a sputtering arc or a wire that just won't feed consistently. Often, the culprit isn't the machine settings or the contact tip—it's the hidden path the wire travels through. The ESAB 21167 Guide Tube Liner is the specific replacement part you need if you are running .035" (0.9mm) wire and noticing drag or feeding issues. This guide tube sits in your feeder or gun assembly and acts as the highway for your welding wire, ensuring it travels straight and true without snagging.

When you are in the middle of a job, the last thing you want is to stop and clear a bird's nest at the drive rolls. A worn-out guide tube can develop grooves or burrs that shave copper off the wire, leading to clogged liners and erratic feeding. Swapping out your old guide for a fresh ESAB 21167 is a quick, inexpensive fix that can make a massive difference in how your torch feels and performs. It is designed to reduce friction, allowing the drive rolls to push the wire smoothly without slipping.

This part is a genuine ESAB replacement, meaning it drops right into place without modification. Whether you are fabricating in the shop or doing repair work in the field, keeping a spare guide tube in your kit is smart practice. Don't let a cheap consumable compromise your weld quality. Ensure your .035 wire glides effortlessly from the spool to the puddle with this essential replacement liner.

Practical Application

• Troubleshooting: First place to check if wire speed fluctuates despite steady drive rolls.
• Maintenance: Replace whenever you change wire sizes or notice significant wear.
• Compatibility: specifically sized for the popular .035" wire diameter used in general fabrication.
