OVERVIEW

Get Closer to the Weld with Tapered Precision

Every welder knows the frustration of trying to lay a bead in a tight corner when your MIG gun's front end is just too bulky to see what you're doing. That's where the GEN4381A Step Tapered Contact Tip comes in. Designed to fit your trusty Bernard-style MIG gun, these tips feature a slimmed-down nose that lets you get right into the joint. Whether you are welding automotive frames, intricate brackets, or root passes on pipe, the tapered design gives you the visibility you need to keep your puddle right where you want it.

These tips are sized for 0.035" wire, the bread-and-butter size for most general fabrication jobs. They are built from durable copper to handle the heat and keep the juice flowing smoothly to your wire. A worn-out tip can cause erratic feeding, sputtering arcs, and ugly welds, so keeping a fresh supply on hand is critical. With this 10-pack, you can swap out your tip the moment it starts acting up without breaking the bank.

Don't let a bad contact tip ruin your day or your weld. These replacements slide right into your existing setup, offering the same fit and performance you expect from the big brands but at a price that makes sense for your shop. Keep your arc smooth, your vision clear, and your welds strong with these essential consumables.

Yes, as long as the flux-cored wire diameter is 0.035 inches, this tip will work, though heavy-duty flux-core often uses larger diameters.

It is made from a copper alloy designed for high electrical conductivity and heat resistance.

As tips wear, the hole becomes oval-shaped, leading to poor electrical contact, erratic arcs, and potential burn-back.
