For professional welders running 1/16" wire in heavy fabrication, structural steel, or flux-cored applications, the contact tip is the most critical point of power transfer. The Tweco 14H-116 Heavy Duty Contact Tip is built to withstand the rigors of high-heat welding. Unlike standard tips, the Heavy Duty 14H series offers a robust design with increased copper material, allowing it to handle the intense thermal cycles of 300-amp and 400-amp welding procedures without degrading rapidly.
Welders know that a worn contact tip causes erratic arcs, wandering puddles, and frustrating wire feed issues. The 14H-116 is designed to maintain its shape and bore integrity longer, keeping your arc focused and stable. The 1/16" bore is perfectly sized to guide heavy wires while ensuring solid electrical contact, which is vital for maintaining consistent voltage and penetration. Whether you are welding thick plate or running long beads on structural beams, these tips help prevent the "stuttering" arc caused by poor conductivity.
Installation is seamless with the industry-standard 3/8"-24 threading, fitting perfectly into your existing 54A or 52FN gas diffusers. These tips are compatible with some of the most popular guns in the industry, including the classic Tweco #3 and #4, and the widely used Lincoln Magnum 300 and 400 series. Don't let cheap aftermarket consumables compromise your weld quality or slow down your production. Stick with genuine Tweco 14H-116 tips for reliable, heavy-duty performance that keeps you welding longer between changes.
