OVERVIEW

Restore Your Tweco No. 5 Performance

If your trusty Tweco No. 5 MIG gun is starting to stutter, feed poorly, or overheat at the neck, it might be time to replace the conductor tube. The Tweco 1650-1102 (Model 65-60) is the standard 60-degree gooseneck designed specifically for your air-cooled No. 5 gun. Welding all day requires equipment that works as hard as you do, and a damaged neck can ruin your arc stability and wire feeding. This replacement tube brings back the smooth consistency you expect from a classic Tweco setup.

The 60-degree bend is the industry standard for a reason—it provides the right angle for comfortable welding in flat and horizontal positions while still allowing access into tighter joints. Made from heavy-duty copper alloy, this tube conducts welding current efficiently to the contact tip, reducing heat buildup in the handle. The robust outer insulation protects you and your equipment from short circuits during tight maneuvering.

Installation is straightforward: simply disconnect the old tube from the handle block and thread in the new one. Ensure your liner is trimmed to the correct length for the new tube to prevent feeding issues. Whether you are fabricating heavy structural steel or running production parts, a fresh conductor tube ensures your gas coverage is consistent and your wire doesn't drag. Keep your No. 5 gun running like a beast with this genuine Tweco replacement.
