Tregaskiss Tregaskiss has introduced its new QUICK LOAD(TM) Liner AutoLength(TM) System to prevent quality problems associated with incorrect MIG gun liner length. The system helps reduce wire-feeding problems and also decreases bumbacks, along with premature contact tip failure and wear associated with misalignment between the liner and contact tip. A springloaded module housed inside the power pin applies constant pressure on the liner, keeping it seated properly in the retaining head at all times. The system allows for up to one inch forgiveness and accommodates liner movement during welding.
