OVERVIEW

Tweco Velocity VTS-564 Contact Tips – 5/64" (10 Pack)

Upgrade your MIG welding experience with the Tweco Velocity VTS-564 Contact Tips, specifically sized for 5/64-inch (2.0mm) wire. These tips are part of the game-changing Velocity consumable platform, which has redefined how welders interact with their MIG guns. If you are tired of struggling with seized contact tips, stripped threads, or inconsistent arc performance, the Velocity system is the solution you have been waiting for. The VTS-564 features a unique "drop-in" style that requires no tools for installation—simply drop it into the gas diffuser and secure it with the nozzle.

The primary advantage of this threadless design is the elimination of cross-threading and seizing. In high-amperage applications using 5/64" wire, heat buildup can cause traditional brass or copper threads to lock up, making tip removal a frustrating and time-consuming task. The Velocity VTS-564 bypasses this problem entirely. Furthermore, the solid copper construction and optimized geometry allow the tip to run much cooler. By dissipating heat more effectively through the diffuser and conductor tube, the tip remains harder and retains its conductivity longer, preventing the "burn-back" and keyholing that often plague standard tips.

For welders working on structural steel, heavy equipment repair, or shipbuilding, the stability of the arc is paramount. The VTS-564 delivers a focused, stable arc that enhances weld penetration and bead appearance. The concentricity of the bore is precision-machined to ensure smooth wire feeding, reducing drag and preventing bird-nesting at the drive rolls. This attention to detail ensures that your welding parameters remain consistent throughout the life of the tip.

Sold in a convenient pack of 10, these contact tips are an essential addition to any welder's toolkit. They are compatible with Tweco Spray Master V-Series guns and any other MIG gun converted to the Velocity system. Invest in Tweco Velocity consumables today to experience faster tip changes, less downtime, and superior weld quality on your heavy-gauge projects.

FAQ

The VTS-564 contact tip is precision-machined for 5/64-inch (2.0mm) welding wire.

It will only fit if your gun is equipped with the Velocity consumable system (gas diffuser and nozzle). Standard Tweco guns may need a conversion kit to use Velocity tips.

This product (SKU 11601768) is sold as a package of 10 contact tips.

The Velocity tip uses a threadless, drop-in design that eliminates the risk of seized threads, runs cooler due to better copper-to-copper contact, and allows for tool-free replacement.

Yes, as long as you are using 5/64" flux-cored wire and your welding gun is set up for the correct polarity and process.

The VTS-564 is made from high-quality solid copper to maximize electrical conductivity and thermal transfer.

Yes, it requires a Tweco Velocity gas diffuser to hold the tip in place securely.
