K161-50 - Lincoln Electric Squirtmobile Travel Control Power Pack, 50 ft

Get Your Squirtmobile Moving with the K161-50

If you are setting up a Squirtmobile® or a mechanized track system for Submerged Arc Welding (SAW), you know that the travel motor doesn't just plug into a wall outlet. It needs a specific control signal to maintain that perfect, steady crawl speed that makes SAW welds look so good. That is exactly what the Lincoln Electric K161-50 Power Pack does. This unit is the "brain box" for the travel motor, containing the necessary mag-amp circuit that translates raw power into smooth, adjustable motion for your K114 SAW gun setup.

Designed to mount conveniently right next to your power source, this pack takes the hassle out of rigging up your sub-arc tractor. The 50-foot (15.2-meter) cord gives you plenty of slack, meaning you aren't tethered on a short leash to your welder. You can run long beam welds, tank seams, or deck plates without constantly having to drag the heavy power source around the shop. This is crucial for maintaining productivity and reducing downtime during setup changes. The cable is built tough to withstand being dragged over concrete floors and around steel fixtures.

Using the K161-50 is straightforward: connect it to your compatible Lincoln power source for input power, and it handles the rest, sending the right juice to your Mechanized Hand Travel Unit. Whether you are retrofitting an older SAW setup or replacing a damaged control unit, this genuine Lincoln Electric part ensures your equipment runs exactly as the engineers intended. Don't let a faulty or missing travel circuit compromise your weld quality; ensure your carriage moves at a consistent speed to prevent burn-through or lack of fusion. This power pack is the key to unlocking the full semi-automatic potential of your K114 gun.
