37282 - ESAB 1/16-inch Contact Tips (Pack of 5)

Keep Your Arc Smooth with ESAB 1/16" Contact Tips

Every welder knows that the contact tip is the unsung hero of the MIG gun. It’s the final point of contact where the welding power is transferred to the wire, and if it’s worn out or cheap, your entire weld suffers. The ESAB 37282 Contact Tip (5-pack) is designed specifically for running 1/16-inch wire, a heavy-hitter size used for serious structural work and thick plate welding. When you are pushing that much metal, you need a tip that can handle the heat and the current without fusing or wearing out instantly.

These tips are made from high-quality copper that stands up to the abuse of high-amperage welding. The bore is machined perfectly to let 1/16" wire slide through smoothly while maintaining solid electrical contact. This means fewer arc stutters, less spatter caused by poor conductivity, and less frustration for you under the hood. If you've been dealing with erratic wire feeding or an arc that just won't settle down, a fresh contact tip is often the cheapest and fastest fix. This pack of five ensures you have spares in your toolbox, so you aren't stuck waiting on parts in the middle of a job.

Designed to fit specific ESAB and L-Tec style guns (check your manual for the ST series compatibility), these tips screw in securely and provide the thermal transfer needed to keep the front end of your gun from overheating. Don't let a worn-out tip ruin your bead profile or cause burnback that damages your liner. Swap in a fresh ESAB 37282 tip and get back to laying down smooth, professional welds. Ideal for shops handling heavy equipment repair, structural steel, or aluminum fabrication where 1/16" wire is the standard.
