OVERVIEW

ESAB 0258006581 Contact Nozzle 2.5mm M16 – Industrial Grade

Optimize your heavy welding processes with the ESAB Contact Nozzle 2.5mm M16 (0258006581). This premium contact tip is manufactured to meet the exacting standards of industrial fabrication, specifically for applications utilizing 2.5mm diameter welding wire. In processes like Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) or high-deposition MIG welding, the quality of the contact nozzle directly influences the stability of the arc and the consistency of the weld bead.

The nozzle is constructed with a precision-drilled bore that accommodates 2.5mm wire with optimal clearance, ensuring smooth wire feeding while maintaining constant electrical contact. The M16 threaded base allows for quick replacement and a solid mechanical connection to the torch body or contact jaw assembly. This is particularly important in automated environments where equipment reliability is paramount to maintaining cycle times and reducing intervention.

Welders Supply provides this authentic ESAB component to support professionals in sectors such as shipbuilding, pipe manufacturing, and structural steel erection. The 0258006581 nozzle is built to resist the harsh environment of the weld zone, offering extended service life compared to generic alternatives. By maintaining a stable electrical connection, this nozzle helps prevent micro-arcing inside the tip, which can lead to premature failure and wire burn-back.

FAQ

This nozzle is designed for 2.5mm welding wire.

It features an M16 thread for connection to the welding head.

Yes, it is typically used with ESAB A2 and A6 automatic welding heads for SAW or heavy MIG applications.

It is made from a high-conductivity copper alloy designed for durability and electrical efficiency.

Generally, no. 2.5mm wire and M16 threads are much larger than standard handheld MIG components; this is for heavy industrial equipment.

The ESAB part number is 0258006581.

Yes, it is commonly used in Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) setups due to the large wire size support.
