OVERVIEW

Reliable Arc Stability and Smooth Feeding

Keep your MIG welding operations running smoothly with these durable .045-inch tapered contact tips. Designed as a direct replacement for the popular Tweco 14T-45 (Part No. 1140-1304), these tips deliver the performance you expect without the premium price tag. Whether you are welding mild steel, stainless, or other materials, the quality of your contact tip plays a huge role in arc stability. These tips are crafted to provide a smooth interface between the power source and the wire, reducing burn-backs and erratic arcs.

The tapered shape is a favorite among welders who need to see the puddle clearly or reach into V-grooves and corners. Unlike standard cylindrical tips, the tapered design stays out of your line of sight, giving you better control over the weld bead. Rated for up to 400 amps, they are robust enough for heavy-duty fabrication work. The consistent inside diameter ensures that your wire feeds without drag, preventing bird-nesting at the feeder.

These tips are compatible with the industry-standard Tweco front-end consumables found in shops worldwide. If you are running a Tweco #2, #3, or #4 gun, these tips will thread right into your existing gas diffuser. Sold in packs of 25, this bulk package is perfect for busy shops that need to minimize downtime and keep consumables on hand. Upgrade your consumable stock with these reliable, high-conductivity copper tips.
