0192058101 - ESAB Conductive Welding Contact Paste - 30g Tube

Keep Your Torch Running Cool and Smooth

Every welder knows the frustration of a contact tip that just won't unscrew, or an arc that starts to sputter because the gun is getting too hot. The ESAB Contact Paste 30g is your secret weapon against these common shop headaches. Think of it as a tune-up in a tube for your MIG gun. By applying a small amount of this conductive grease to the threads of your contact tips and diffusers before installation, you are doing two things: ensuring the electricity flows smoothly to your wire, and making sure you can actually get the parts off when you're done.

Heat is the enemy of your welding gun. When connections are dry or dirty, they resist the flow of electricity, creating hot spots that can melt threads and ruin your diffuser or swan neck. This paste bridges those gaps, keeping the connection tight and the temperature down. It's especially helpful when running aluminum or high-amperage steel wires where current transfer is critical for a smooth, buttery arc. The 30g tube is the perfect size to keep in your toolbox or welding cart drawer.

Don't wait until you have to use a pair of vice grips to mangle a seized tip out of your gun. A quick dab of ESAB Contact Paste protects your threads from spatter fusion and heat seizing. It’s a small investment that saves you money on replacement parts and keeps you welding instead of wrestling with your equipment. Whether you are a professional fabricator or a weekend warrior, this paste helps you maintain a professional-grade setup.
