OVERVIEW

Maintain Peak Performance with Miller 169716B Adapters

Don't let a worn-out gas diffuser compromise your welds. The Miller 169716B Contact Tip Adapter is the heartbeat of your MIG gun's front end, ensuring that your contact tip stays secure and your shielding gas flows smoothly. This 25-pack is the ultimate convenience for owners of Millermatic 140, 180, or 211 welders, providing a long-term supply of essential consumables so you never have to stop in the middle of a project.

Why Replace Your Adapter?
The contact tip adapter lives in a harsh environment, constantly exposed to the intense heat of the welding arc and molten spatter. Over time, spatter buildup can block the gas ports, leading to poor shielding coverage and porosity in your welds. Additionally, the threads that hold your contact tip can strip or become loose, causing electrical resistance that makes the arc sputter and pop. Swapping out an old, beat-up adapter for a fresh Miller 169716 restores that crisp, consistent arc you expect from your Millermatic.

Genuine Miller Quality
When you choose genuine Miller parts, you are choosing precision engineering. These brass adapters are machined to exact tolerances to ensure a perfect seal with the nozzle and a tight electrical connection with the contact tip. Cheap aftermarket copies often suffer from poor threading or inferior alloys that overheat quickly. Stick with the brand that built your machine.

Perfect for the M-10 and M-15 Guns
These adapters are designed exclusively for the M-10 and M-15 series MIG guns. Whether you are welding auto body panels in the garage or performing light fabrication in the shop, having a stash of these adapters ensures your equipment is always ready for the next bead. The bulk packaging offers a better price per unit, making it a smart investment for any serious welder.
