OVERVIEW

Reliable Aluminum Wire Feeding with M1514 Teflon Liner

Welding aluminum requires precision and the right equipment to overcome the challenges of feeding soft wire. The M1514 Teflon Liner is an essential upgrade for welders using Miller MIG guns who need to run aluminum wire diameters between .047" (3/64") and .062" (1/16"). Unlike standard steel liners, which can shave soft aluminum wire and cause friction buildup, this high-quality Teflon liner provides a smooth, low-resistance path for the wire to travel from the feeder to the contact tip.

One of the most common issues in aluminum MIG welding is "bird-nesting," where the wire tangles at the drive rolls due to downstream resistance. The M1514 liner addresses this by utilizing a durable PTFE (Teflon) material that offers a significantly lower coefficient of friction. This ensures that the wire glides effortlessly through the gun cable, maintaining a consistent arc and reducing the likelihood of burn-backs or erratic feeding. Whether you are fabricating aluminum boat hulls, repairing trailers, or performing automotive work, this liner is critical for achieving high-quality welds.

Designed as a direct replacement for Miller-style equipment, this liner is easy to install and trim to the correct length for your specific gun assembly. It is compatible with a wide range of Miller MIG guns and is robust enough to withstand the rigors of industrial environments while protecting the integrity of your soft welding wire. By switching to a dedicated Teflon liner for your aluminum projects, you protect your equipment and improve your overall welding efficiency.

Key Benefits for Industrial Applications

  • Reduced Friction: Teflon material allows soft aluminum wire to slide easily, preventing feed issues.
  • Versatile Sizing: Accommodates the most common aluminum wire sizes, 3/64" and 1/16".
  • Equipment Protection: Prevents metal shavings from clogging the liner and gun assembly.
  • Direct Fit: Engineered to fit seamlessly into Miller MIG welding guns.

FAQ

This liner is made of Teflon (PTFE) and is specifically designed for feeding aluminum welding wire.

No, it is not recommended. Steel wire is abrasive and will quickly cut through the soft Teflon material, ruining the liner. Use a steel wound liner for steel wire.

It fits wire diameters from .047" (3/64") to .062" (1/16").

It fits most standard Miller MIG guns that accept standard liners. Always check your gun's manual for specific part number compatibility.

Remove the old liner, unroll the new Teflon liner, slide it into the gun cable from the back, and trim the front end to the correct length as specified in your gun's manual. Ensure no burrs are left on the cut end.

Aluminum wire is soft and prone to kinking or shaving against steel liners. Teflon provides a low-friction surface that allows the wire to slide smoothly without damage.

This is a high-quality Miller-style replacement part designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications.

Using a steel liner for aluminum often results in "bird-nesting" at the feeder, erratic arc caused by poor feeding, and aluminum shavings clogging the liner.
