1589 - Bernard 1589 Threadless Contact Tip for .035 Wire

Reliable Arc Control for Professional Welders

When you are under the hood, the last thing you want to worry about is your contact tip failing halfway through a bead. The Bernard 1589 Contact Tip for .035" (0.9mm) wire is built to keep you welding smoothly, bead after bead. Known for its durability and superior arc characteristics, this tip is a favorite among professionals who demand consistency. The bore is precision-drilled to provide just the right amount of clearance for the wire, ensuring smooth feeding without the drag that causes bird-nesting, while still maintaining the tight electrical contact needed for a hot, stable arc.

The real game-changer with the 1589 tip is its threadless, adjustable design. If you have ever struggled with a tip seized in a diffuser or stripped threads on a hot gun, you will appreciate how easy this tip is to change. It simply drops into place, secured by the nozzle or head assembly. This feature also gives you control over your tip recess. Need to get closer to the puddle for better control on short-circuit MIG? You can adjust the stick-out. Need more recess to protect the tip from spatter during spray transfer? You can adjust that too. This flexibility is essential when switching between different joint types or positions.

Whether you are welding mild steel brackets, aluminum frames, or stainless steel tanks, the Bernard 1589 delivers the performance you need. It handles the heat of high-amperage applications well and resists the keyholing effect that ruins cheaper tips. By maintaining a consistent contact point with the wire, it helps prevent burnbacks and erratic arcs, allowing you to focus on your travel speed and puddle manipulation. Keep a pack of these in your toolbox to ensure your Bernard gun is always ready for the next job.
