10462258 - Tweco S6460 Smoke Master Gooseneck 60 Degree 450A

Breathe Easier with the Tweco Smoke Master S6460 Gooseneck

For professional welders, safety and visibility are paramount. The Tweco Smoke Master S6460 Conductor Tube is designed to help you maintain a clean and safe breathing zone by working seamlessly with your fume extraction MIG gun. This 60-degree gooseneck is the workhorse at the front of your torch, directing the wire to the joint while powerfully sucking away hazardous welding fumes. With the ability to capture up to 90% of smoke right at the weld zone, this conductor tube helps you comply with safety regulations and keeps your shop air cleaner.

Built to withstand the rigors of daily fabrication, the S6460 features a tough metal outer jacket. Unlike standard conductor tubes that might degrade quickly under high heat or impact, this Tweco model is engineered for longevity. It is rated for 450 Amps, giving you the power you need for heavy structural welding, and is sized for 1/16-inch wire, making it a versatile choice for flux-cored or solid wire applications where high deposition rates are required. The 60-degree angle offers a comfortable hand position for most flat and horizontal welding positions, reducing wrist strain during long shifts.

Replacing your conductor tube is a standard part of MIG gun maintenance. Over time, spatter buildup and heat cycles can wear down the internal liner path or damage the threads where your contact tip and nozzle attach. The S6460 is designed for easy replacement on Tweco Smoke Master guns. The threads are machined to precise tolerances—M12 on the back and M11 on the front—ensuring a tight gas seal and solid electrical connection every time. Because it is air-cooled, there are no messy coolant lines to worry about during changeouts.

Investing in genuine Tweco parts like the S6460 ensures that your equipment performs as intended. A worn or generic tube might not align perfectly with the vacuum shroud, leading to poor smoke capture or shielding gas turbulence. By sticking with the S6460, you ensure consistent arc performance and maximum fume extraction efficiency, protecting your health and improving the quality of your welds.
