19N46 - ESAB 5/64" SAW Contact Tip (Pack of 5)

Reliable Performance for Heavy-Duty Sub-Arc Welding

When you are running a sub-arc tractor or a column and boom setup, downtime is the enemy. The ESAB 19N46 Contact Tip is built to keep you welding longer with fewer interruptions. Sized for 5/64-inch (2.0mm) wire, this tip is the final touchpoint for your welding current, and it’s designed to handle the heat. Whether you are welding thick plate, structural beams, or large diameter pipe, this tip delivers the consistent current transfer you need for flawless X-ray quality welds.

Submerged Arc Welding pushes consumables to the limit. High amperages and continuous run times can melt inferior tips or cause the wire to seize. ESAB’s 19N46 tips are made from durable copper alloy that resists annealing, meaning they stay hard and keep their shape even when the heat is on. A worn-out tip can cause the wire to flutter, leading to an unstable arc and potential defects under the flux. By swapping in a fresh 19N46, you ensure the wire feeds straight and the arc stays exactly where you want it.

These tips are designed to fit perfectly into ESAB A2 and A6 welding heads, the workhorses of the industry. The installation is quick and simple, getting you back to the arc in seconds. Because SAW is often an automated process, reliability is key—you don't want to stop a long longitudinal seam halfway through because of a contact tip failure. With this 5-pack, you have backups ready at the machine, ensuring that your production schedule stays on track.

Don't let a cheap consumable compromise your heavy welding projects. The 19N46 provides the smooth feeding and electrical stability required for professional results. It’s an essential part of your daily maintenance kit for any ESAB sub-arc system running 5/64" wire. Keep your beads uniform, your penetration deep, and your operation efficient with genuine ESAB parts.
