OVERVIEW

Restore Your Torch's Performance with Tweco

Is your MIG gun sputtering, feeding poorly, or just looking a little worse for wear? The conductor tube, or "neck," of your MIG gun takes a beating every day. It faces the heat of the arc, the impact of drops, and the constant friction of wire feeding. When it's time to replace it, trust the Tweco 1640-1403 (SMVCTLS60LM) to get your Spray Master Velocity gun back to factory-fresh performance. This isn't just a piece of bent pipe; it's a genuine Tweco component designed to keep you welding smoothly and comfortably.

The 60-degree angle on this conductor tube is the industry favorite for a reason. It provides the perfect ergonomic balance, allowing you to reach into joints comfortably without straining your wrist or contorting your body. Whether you are welding flat, horizontal, or vertical, this angle gives you excellent visibility of the puddle and the nozzle. The heavy-duty copper construction handles the heat of high-amperage spray transfer or short-circuit MIG welding, while the tough outer insulation keeps the neck cool enough to handle (with gloves!) and prevents accidental shorts if you bump the workpiece.

Swapping out your conductor tube is one of the easiest ways to fix feeding issues. Over time, the inside of an old tube can become grooved or clogged, causing the wire to drag. By installing a fresh 1640-1403, you ensure a smooth path for your wire, reducing bird-nesting and arc instability. Don't fight your equipment—upgrade your front-end parts and get back to laying down perfect beads. This tube is built for the professional welder who demands reliability and consistency from their tools, shift after shift.

FAQ

This conductor tube is designed for Tweco Spray Master guns, specifically those utilizing the Velocity consumable system.

The tube features a standard 60-degree bend, which is the most common angle for general-purpose welding.

No, the conductor tube is sold as the metal neck assembly with insulation. The gun liner is a separate component that runs through the cable and into the tube.

If you experience erratic wire feeding, gas coverage issues due to leaks at the neck, or if the threads for the diffuser are stripped, it is time to replace the tube.

Yes, the conductor tube comes with the external insulating jacket pre-installed.

It is primarily listed for the Velocity series (indicated by the 'V' in the model code). Check your gun's parts manual, as the diffuser attachment threads may differ between standard and Velocity series.

It is constructed from a high-conductivity copper alloy to manage heat and electrical transfer efficiently.

No, installation typically involves loosening a set screw or rotatable nut at the handle, removing the old tube, and inserting the new one.
