14401036 - Tweco 44 Series Flux Core Liner 1/8in 15ft

Precision Feeding for 1/8" Flux Cored Wire

Maximize the performance of your heavy-duty MIG welding operations with the Tweco 1440-1036 Conduit Liner, also known as the 44FC-18-15. This premium liner is specifically engineered for feeding 1/8-inch (3.2mm) flux-cored and metal-cored wires. In structural steel fabrication, shipbuilding, and heavy equipment repair, the reliability of your wire feed system is paramount. This liner provides the structural integrity and low-friction path required to push large diameter wires over a 15-foot distance without hesitation or surging.

Durable Construction for Harsh Environments

The 44 Series liners from Tweco are renowned for their durability. The 1440-1036 features a heavy-gauge wound steel coil design that resists kinking and crushing, common issues in rugged industrial environments. This durability is essential when working with flux-cored wires, which can be abrasive and heavy. The liner's interior surface is finished to promote smooth sliding of the wire, reducing the load on your wire feeder's drive rolls and motor. This not only extends the life of your equipment but also results in a more consistent weld bead profile by eliminating micro-stoppages in wire delivery.

Compatibility and Performance

Designed to fit Tweco MIG guns compatible with 44 Series parts, this liner is a direct replacement for worn or clogged conduits. Over time, liners can accumulate metal shavings, drawing lubricant, and shop dust, which increases friction and leads to erratic arc performance. Swapping out your old liner for a fresh Tweco 1440-1036 restores the smooth feeding characteristics of your gun. It is compatible with standard 15-foot cable assemblies, making it a versatile stock item for shops running heavy flux core operations.
