Hobart Drill Type Tip Cleaner Set #54-#72 with Aluminum Vise

Clear Clogs Fast with Hobart Precision

There is nothing more frustrating than striking an arc or lighting a torch only to find your flame sputtering due to a clogged tip. Carbon buildup is an unavoidable reality of welding and cutting, but it doesn't have to slow down your production. The Hobart Drill Type Tip Cleaner (SKU: 770086) is the professional's answer to stubborn blockages. Unlike standard cleaners that can bend or break under pressure, this drill-style set is engineered to bore through the toughest carbon plugs, getting you back to work in seconds.

The Right Tool for the Job

When you are dealing with precision equipment, you need precision tools. This Hobart set features a comprehensive range of drill sizes, from #54 to #72, covering the most common orifice sizes found in medium-duty welding and cutting tips. The drills are housed inside a convenient aluminum pin vise. This double-ended vise holds the drill bit firmly, giving you the torque needed to penetrate hard slag without snapping the bit. It is a simple, effective mechanical solution to a common shop problem.

Built for the Shop Environment

Tools in a welding shop take a beating, and Hobart knows this. The 770086 tip cleaner is built to last. The aluminum body is tough enough to survive drops and being rattled around in a toolbox, yet light enough to carry in your shirt pocket. The drills themselves are made from hardened steel to maintain their cutting edge over repeated uses. Whether you are working in the field or at the bench, having this cleaner on hand means you are always ready to maintain your torch.

Why Choose Drill Type?

Many welders prefer drill-type cleaners over standard wire files for deep cleaning. Wire files are great for light maintenance, but when a tip is truly plugged with molten splatter or hard carbon, a file often just pushes the debris further in. The fluted design of the Hobart drills actually extracts the material as you turn it, completely clearing the passage. This results in a cleaner burn, a hotter flame, and better cuts. Don't settle for a sputtering torch—keep your tips pristine with Hobart.
