11401306 - Tweco 14T-116 Contact Tip 1/16" (Pack of 25)

Genuine Tweco 14T-116 Contact Tips for 1/16" Wire

Maximize the performance of your MIG welding equipment with genuine Tweco 14T-116 contact tips. Identified by the part number 1140-1306, these standard contact tips are the industry benchmark for reliability and performance in medium-to-heavy duty welding applications. Designed specifically for 1/16-inch (1.6mm) welding wires, they are compatible with the legendary Tweco Classic Number 3, 4, and 5 series MIG guns, as well as the Spray Master and other Tweco-style guns utilizing 14 Series consumables.

Superior Conductivity and Arc Stability
The 14T-116 is machined from a premium copper alloy formulation that balances hardness with electrical conductivity. This material choice ensures efficient current transfer from the power source to the wire, which is critical for maintaining a consistent voltage and a smooth, spatter-free arc. The precision-machined bore minimizes friction, preventing wire shaving and feeding issues that can interrupt long welds.

Standard Duty Durability
While designated as "Standard" duty (indicated by the 'T' in 14T), these tips are robust enough for most industrial fabrication environments. They feature a standard wall thickness that provides adequate heat dissipation for typical duty cycles found in structural steel, heavy equipment repair, and general manufacturing. The 3/8"-24 threaded base ensures a tight mechanical and electrical connection to the gas diffuser, preventing loosening during thermal cycling.

Value and Convenience
Supplied in a package of 25, these contact tips offer excellent value for high-volume users. Keeping a healthy stock of consumables ensures that your welders can immediately address quality issues related to tip wear, such as wandering arcs or poor ignition. Trust Tweco's decades of expertise in MIG gun technology to keep your production line moving efficiently.
