ESAB 996995 Contact Tip .035 Medium for Gunmaster 250A

Keep Your Gunmaster Running Smoothly

If you are running an ESAB Gunmaster 250A or an MT series MIG gun, you know that a worn-out contact tip can ruin a good bead. The ESAB 996995 Contact Tip is the direct replacement you need to get your arc back to being crisp and stable. Designed for .035" wire, this tip is the heart of your MIG gun's front end, responsible for transferring the welding current to the wire right before it hits the metal. When a tip gets worn out, the hole becomes oval-shaped, causing the wire to wander and the arc to stutter. Swapping in a fresh, genuine ESAB tip is the quickest fix for feeding issues.

This is a Medium Length tip, which means it sits at just the right depth within your nozzle to ensure proper gas coverage while allowing you to get into tight corners without shorting out. It is built to screw perfectly into the 0558001608 diffuser found on Gunmaster and MT setups. Don't struggle with generic tips that might have sloppy threads or incorrect bore sizes; sticking with the OEM part guarantees that it fits your gun exactly as the manufacturer intended.

Whether you are welding mild steel in the garage or fabricating parts in the shop, having a pack of fresh tips is rule number one for downtime prevention. The copper construction is tough enough to handle the heat of daily welding, resisting spatter adhesion and wear. Make sure your Gunmaster 250A is ready for the next job by keeping it loaded with the correct 996995 contact tips.
