Torch wire liner

For mild steel, the wire feed tube - a liner for welding - consists of a steel spiral. When using

wire electrodes made of chromium / nickel steel and of aluminum and other metals, a tube of

wear-resistant plastic (for example Teflon) is used. Plastic guides have a lower friction

coefficient than steel.
