403-20-116-25 - Tregaskiss 1/16" Heavy Duty Taper Lock Contact Tips (25-Pack)

Reliable Arc Starts and Longer Tip Life

As a welder, you know that the contact tip is the final transfer point for your welding current, and its condition directly affects your arc quality. The Tregaskiss 403-20-116 Heavy Duty Contact Tip is built to keep you welding longer with fewer interruptions. Designed for 1/16" wire, this tip features the Tregaskiss Taper Lock system, which is a game-changer for anyone tired of tips seizing up or rattling loose in the middle of a bead. Instead of threads that can get gummed up with spatter or stripped out, this tip drops into the diffuser and locks tight with a simple twist, ensuring a solid electrical connection every time.

Heat is the enemy of any contact tip, causing the copper to soften and the bore to keyhole, which leads to wandering arcs and poor bead placement. The Heavy Duty design of the 403-20-116 puts more material between the wire and the heat of the arc, acting as a superior heat sink. Combined with the Taper Lock connection that pulls heat away from the front end, these tips run significantly cooler than standard threaded options. This means you spend less time walking back to the crib for parts and more time under the hood making money. The 1/16" bore is machined to precise tolerances, providing smooth wire feeding without the drag that causes bird-nesting at the drive rolls.

This 25-pack is perfect for high-volume shops running heavy flux-cored or solid wire applications. Whether you are pushing a manual MIG gun or overseeing a robotic cell, consistency is key. These OEM tips deliver that consistency, weld after weld. They are specifically designed to mate with the 404-20 gas diffuser, creating a sealed system that prevents shielding gas turbulence and protects the threads of your gun neck. Upgrade to the TOUGH LOCK system and experience the difference that better thermal management makes in your daily welding operations.
