K864 - Lincoln Electric K864 Y-Adapter for Remote Controls and Wire Feeders

Connect Your Favorite Remotes with Ease

As a welder, your setup is personal. You have the tools you trust, and often, that includes a specific remote control, foot pedal, or hand amptrol that you've dialed in perfectly. However, matching that gear with different power sources can be a headache when plug configurations don't match. The Lincoln Electric K864 Remote Control Adapter is the problem-solver you need in your kit. It is specifically designed to let you plug your trusted 6-pin remotes into machines that use a 14-pin receptacle, all without losing the ability to run your wire feeder.

The genius of the K864 lies in its Y-connection design. One end plugs into your machine's 14-pin receptacle. The other end splits into two: one connector for your wire feeder's input cable (14-pin) and another for your remote control (6-pin). This means you don't have to choose between running a feeder or using a remote—you get both. It is fully compatible with popular Lincoln remotes like the K857 Remote Output Control, the K963 Hand Amptrol, and the K870 Foot Amptrol. This flexibility allows you to adapt your station for different processes, such as switching to TIG with a foot pedal or adjusting MIG voltage at the weld joint, without swapping out the entire machine interface.

Built for the real world, this adapter cable is tough. The insulation is resistant to cuts, abrasion, and the general grime of a welding shop. The plugs are heavy-duty and lock into place securely, so you don't have to worry about a loose connection killing your arc in the middle of a critical pass. It’s a plug-and-play solution that saves you time and frustration. Instead of hunting for a new remote or trying to jury-rig a connection, the K864 lets you get back to what you do best: laying down quality welds.

If you are working with Lincoln Electric equipment and need to bridge the gap between 6-pin accessories and 14-pin power sources, this adapter is the essential link. It keeps your workspace versatile and ensures your equipment works together exactly how you need it to.
