The LN-15 is one of the smallest and most maneuverable wire

feeders for the construction, shipbuilding and pipeline industries

available on the market today. Through the use of a high tem-

perature, abrasion resistant plastic case, aluminum alloy roll

cage and fully encapsulated PC boards, the LN-15 is perhaps

the most rugged portable wire feeder in the world.

The LN-15 is available in both Across-The-Arc and Control Cable

versions. Both offer outstanding welding performance, including

pulse welding, on a wide variety of steel, stainless steel, aluminum

and alloy materials.
