Posted by SteveB on April 12, 2008, 12:37 am Please log in for more thread options When I had a MillerMatic 200, I used to use .045 liners on .030 wire, as they would not clog up. They worked fine. They were Tweco guns. Now I have a Lincoln SP175+ and wonder with this light little cheesy gun if one can buy only the liner or if you have to buy the whole gun. The welder is acting a little cranky, and I'd like to just put a larger liner in there.

So it seems as though you could certainly put in the .045 liner, yes.
