KP1968-4 - Lincoln Electric KP1968-4 Sub-Arc Flux Cone Nozzle, 3/4 Inch Opening

Reliable Flux Delivery for Submerged Arc Welding

The Lincoln Electric KP1968-4 Nozzle Flux Cone is an essential consumable designed specifically for heavy-duty submerged arc welding (SAW) applications. Engineered to meet the rigorous standards of industrial fabrication, this flux cone ensures that the granular flux is deposited accurately over the weld pool, protecting the molten metal from atmospheric contamination and shaping the bead profile. With a precise 3/4-inch (19 mm) opening, it allows for a consistent flow of flux, which is critical for maintaining arc stability and achieving deep penetration welds typical of the sub-arc process.

This nozzle is manufactured to fit seamlessly with some of Lincoln Electric's most robust welding guns. It is the standard replacement cone for the K112 and K113 mechanized sub-arc guns, which are workhorses in beam fabrication, pipe mills, and heavy equipment manufacturing. Additionally, it is fully compatible with the Magnum® 600 MIG gun when configured for submerged arc tasks. Using genuine Lincoln Electric parts like the KP1968-4 guarantees that your equipment operates at peak efficiency, reducing downtime caused by poor fitment or premature wear.

Durability is a key feature of this component. Submerged arc welding generates intense heat and involves abrasive granular flux materials. The KP1968-4 is built to withstand these harsh conditions, maintaining its structural integrity over long welding cycles. Whether you are welding thick structural steel or pressure vessels, ensuring your flux delivery system is in top condition is vital for weld quality. This cone provides the reliability professional welders demand.

At Josef Gas, we understand the importance of having the right consumables on hand to keep your production line moving. The KP1968-4 is a direct replacement part that installs easily, allowing operators to swap out worn nozzles quickly and get back to welding. Its design facilitates the smooth passage of flux, preventing clogging and ensuring that the arc remains fully submerged for defect-free results.
