| Wire gets dirt, metal grinding dust,
gouging particles etc on the surface. This carries into the Torch
wire liner causing high friction and clogging. |
Our MUD FLAPTM is a simple
inexpensive solution. It's shown on the right covering a wire spool.
It also works with coils. Click on Photo to see how to install. |

"Grinding Dust," etc Continued |
The MUD FLAP can be used even with
feeders where the spool or coil is positioned at a 15 degree angle as shown
on photo on right. |
 |
| Wire is not aligned with feed roll or
feed roll tension to high. Flakes of copper appearing
material are under the feed rolls. |
If the proper alignment and tension
are set but flakes of copper appearing material are still present, see
the Mystery of Magnetic Copper by Click |

| Wire is "Dirty or has Copper Flakes"
when taken out of the box. |
The wire may have excess "Wire Drawing
Lubricant" right from the manufacturing process. See "Wire
Dirt Test," Click |
 |
| "Dirty Wire" is causing the
MIG gun wire liner to clog quickly. |
Our DRY WIPETM SYSTEM can help
clean excess wire drawing lubricant or excess "Feed Aid" from the wire.
