0258006582 - ESAB M16 Contact Nozzle for 3.0mm Wire

Reliable Contact Tips for Your ESAB SAW Rig

When you are running a Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) tractor like the ESAB A2 or A6, you know that the contact nozzle is the heart of the arc. If your tip is worn out or fits poorly, your arc wanders, your voltage fluctuates, and you end up with defects that need expensive gouging and re-welding. The ESAB Contact Nozzle 3.0mm M16 (0258006582) is the direct replacement part you need to keep your machine running smooth and your welds passing X-ray. This nozzle is machined strictly for 3.0mm wire, giving you that perfect snug fit that transfers current efficiently without binding the wire.

The M16 thread is a heavy-duty standard for ESAB equipment, allowing you to crank it down tight for a solid electrical connection that won't overheat. We know that in heavy manufacturing—whether you are building bridge girders, wind towers, or ship hulls—you are pushing high amps for hours at a time. This copper alloy nozzle is designed to take that heat. It resists the keyholing effect that ruins cheaper tips, meaning you spend less time changing parts and more time laying down metal.

Don't risk your weld quality with generic knock-offs that might have incorrect bore sizes or inferior copper blends. Stick with the genuine ESAB 0258006582 nozzle. It is designed to work seamlessly with your wire straightener and feed rolls, ensuring the wire hits the joint exactly where you aimed it. Keep a box of these in your rig's toolbox so you are always ready to swap out a worn tip and get back to the job immediately.
