998061 - ESAB .035 Contact Tip for W-Series MIG Guns

Keep Your Arc Smooth with Genuine ESAB Tips

If you are running an ESAB W-250, W-300, or W-400 MIG gun, you know that a fresh contact tip is the secret to a frustration-free day of welding. The ESAB 998061 is the standard .035" (0.9mm) tip designed specifically for your setup. We've all been there—you're trying to lay down a clean bead, but the arc starts sputtering, or the wire feels like it's dragging. Nine times out of ten, your contact tip is blown out or clogged with spatter. Swapping it out for a fresh 998061 restores that crisp, frying-bacon sound and gets you back to welding smoothly.

These tips are built tough to handle the heat of industrial welding. Because they are made to ESAB's exact specs, they thread in perfectly and line up with your gas nozzle every time. No cross-threading, no loose fits. The bore is sized just right for .035 wire, giving you good electrical contact without binding up, even if your liner has a bit of drag. This means less burnback and fewer birdnests at the drive rolls.

Don't let a cheap or worn-out tip ruin your welds. Keep a pack of these in your toolbox. Whether you are welding mild steel brackets or doing production work, having a fresh tip on hand is the cheapest insurance for weld quality. This tip fits the W-series guns found in many heavy-duty shops, so if that's what you're running, this is the part you need.
