OVERVIEW

Keep Your Tweco MIG Gun Performing Like New

Every welder knows the frustration of a loose MIG gun neck. You're in the middle of a critical pass, and suddenly the torch head wobbles, or the arc starts to sputter. Often, the culprit is a worn-out or damaged clamp inside the handle or at the feeder connection. The Tweco 171362 Gun Tube Clamp is the solution to keeping your equipment tight, reliable, and ready for action. Designed specifically for Tweco MIG guns, this clamp acts as the anchor for your conductor tube, ensuring that it stays exactly where you point it, without the annoying play that can ruin your precision.

Welding gear takes a beating. Between the heat, the spatter, and the constant movement around the shop floor, small components like clamps can fatigue over time. When the gun tube clamp begins to fail, it's not just an annoyance—it's a performance killer. A loose connection can cause voltage drops, making your machine feel underpowered, and it can let air suck into your gas line, causing porosity in your welds. By replacing a worn clamp with this genuine Tweco 171362 part, you are effectively refurbishing the structural backbone of your torch. It’s a small investment that prevents expensive downtime and rework later on.

Installation is straightforward for anyone familiar with MIG gun maintenance. Simply access the connection point on your compatible Tweco gun, remove the old hardware, and secure the new 171362 clamp in place. Because it is an OEM part, you don't have to worry about filing it down or forcing it to fit—it is made to match your gun perfectly. Don't let a loose front end compromise your craftsmanship. Keep a spare Tweco Gun Tube Clamp in your toolbox and ensure your torch handles as solidly as the day you bought it.

FAQ

The primary function is to securely clamp the gun tube (conductor tube) to the MIG gun handle or wire feeder assembly, preventing movement and ensuring good electrical and gas connections.

Yes, this is a genuine Tweco OEM replacement part, ensuring the highest quality and perfect fit for your equipment.

A loose clamp can lead to a wobbling gun neck, poor electrical conductivity (causing arc instability), and shielding gas leaks which result in weld porosity.

No, it fits specific Tweco models that utilize the 171362 part number. Please check your MIG gun's parts breakdown or manual to confirm compatibility.

Typically, this SKU refers to the clamp band itself. Screws or tightening hardware are often sold separately or reused from the existing assembly, unless specified otherwise.

Installation is generally simple and involves disassembling the gun handle or connection point, removing the old clamp, and tightening the new one in place.

If the leak is caused by the conductor tube not being seated tightly against the gas diffuser or liner due to a loose connection, replacing the clamp can resolve the issue.

The clamp is made of durable industrial-grade steel designed to withstand the mechanical stress and heat of welding operations.
