KP1948-3 - Lincoln Electric 45-Degree MIG Gun Gooseneck Assembly

Get Your MIG Gun Back in Action

Is your MIG gun sputtering, feeding wire poorly, or just looking a little worse for wear? The neck of your torch takes a beating—from the intense heat of the arc to the occasional drop on the concrete floor. If your current gun tube is bent, clogged, or stripped, the Lincoln Electric KP1948-3 Gun Tube Assembly is the exact replacement you need to get back to laying down smooth beads. This is a genuine Lincoln part, meaning it’s built to the same high standards as the gun you bought, ensuring a perfect fit and reliable performance right out of the box.

The 45-degree angle on this gooseneck is the sweet spot for most welders. It gives you the comfort you need for long days under the hood, allowing you to hold the gun naturally without straining your wrist. At the same time, it provides the right angle of attack for getting into joints and corners. When a gun tube gets damaged, it often pinches the liner inside, causing the wire to drag or surge. This leads to frustrating burn-backs and bird-nesting at the feeder. By swapping in a fresh KP1948-3, you eliminate those feed path issues, ensuring your wire glides smoothly to the contact tip.

Installation is quick and easy, so you don't have to lose valuable shop time. Simply unthread your old, worn-out neck and screw this new one in place. It’s designed to seal up tight, keeping your shielding gas flowing exactly where it needs to go—over the puddle—rather than leaking out inside the handle. Whether you are repairing a gun for a production line or fixing up your rig in the garage, trusting OEM parts like this Lincoln gun tube ensures you aren't fighting your equipment. Keep your focus on the weld, not on the tool, with this durable, high-quality replacement assembly.
