OVERVIEW

Maximize Your Arc Performance with Secure Connections

As a professional welder, you know that a stable arc starts with a solid ground and a good lead connection. The Lincoln Electric K852-95 Twist Mate™ Plug is designed to give you exactly that—a rock-solid, low-resistance connection between your whip and your machine. Rated for 400 Amps, this plug is built to handle the heat of long beads and heavy plate welding without melting down or causing voltage drops that mess with your settings.

This plug is sized specifically for 2/0 and 3/0 AWG cables (70-95 mm²), the standard heavy cables used for industrial stick and MIG welding. The core of the connector is machined from high-grade brass, which provides excellent current transfer. This means all the power your machine generates actually makes it to the puddle, rather than being lost as heat at the terminal. The "Twist Mate" design is Lincoln's version of the popular Dinse-style connector; it allows you to plug in and lock tight with a quick quarter-turn, so you never have to worry about your lead popping out when you drag your cable across the shop floor.

Durability is key when you are dragging cables over concrete, steel grating, and through mud. The K852-95 comes with a tough, insulating rubber cover that resists cuts, abrasion, and sparks. It also protects you from electrical shock by fully covering the brass connector once installed. The ergonomic shape of the boot gives you a good grip, making it easy to connect or disconnect even when wearing heavy welding gloves.

Don't let a loose or worn-out connector compromise your weld quality. Upgrading your leads with the K852-95 ensures you have a professional-grade link to your power source. It is compatible with a wide range of Lincoln Electric power sources, including Invertec, Power Wave, and Ranger series machines equipped with Twist Mate receptacles. Keep a spare in your toolbox for quick field repairs and keep the sparks flying.

FAQ

The K852-95 is designed for use with 2/0 AWG to 3/0 AWG welding cable (approximately 70mm² to 95mm²).

This Twist Mate plug is rated for welding outputs up to 400 Amps.

The K852-95 is a male plug. It connects into the female receptacle (terminal) typically found on the front of the welding machine.

Yes, provided the machine uses standard large Dinse-style (Twist Mate) receptacles compatible with the plug's size and amperage rating.

Installation typically requires a cable stripper to expose the copper strands, a hex key (Allen wrench) to tighten the set screw, and potentially a knife to trim the cable jacket.

The conductive core of the plug is made of high-quality brass for optimal electrical transmission.

Yes, the K852-95 package includes the brass plug body, the insulating rubber boot, and the necessary hardware for cable connection.

While it might physically fit, it is recommended to use the specific plug size for your cable (e.g., K852-70 for 1/0-2/0) to ensure the most secure mechanical and electrical connection.
