16101101 - Tweco 61-45 Conductor Tube 45-Degree Gooseneck for No. 1 MIG Gun

Get Your Tweco #1 Back in Action

If you are running a classic Tweco No. 1 MIG gun, you know it's a workhorse. But even the toughest tools take a beating. If your gun's neck is bent, damaged, or shorting out, the Tweco 61-45 Conductor Tube (1610-1101) is the exact replacement you need to get back to laying beads. This isn't a cheap knock-off; it's the genuine article, built to the same standards as the neck that came with your gun when it was new.

This gooseneck features the standard 45-degree bend that most welders prefer for all-around welding. It gives you the right angle to see your puddle clearly without straining your wrist. The heavy-duty insulation on the outside is tough enough to handle the heat and sparks of the shop environment, keeping the current where it belongs—at the tip, not arcing against your table. Installation is straightforward, fitting perfectly into your Tweco No. 1 handle without the need for modifications or forcing.

Don't let a damaged conductor tube ruin your wire feeding or gas coverage. A bent or kinked neck can cause liner drag, leading to bird-nesting and erratic arcs. By swapping in a fresh 61-45 tube, you ensure smooth wire delivery and proper gas flow to the nozzle. Whether you are fixing up an old favorite or keeping a spare in your toolbox for emergencies, this conductor tube is essential for keeping your 180-amp MIG setup running smoothly.
