11501268 - Tweco WeldSkill 15 Series Contact Tip, 1/16 in (1.6mm) - 25 Pack

Reliable Performance for Heavy-Duty Welding

When you are running 1/16-inch wire, you are likely tackling serious fabrication jobs—structural steel, heavy equipment repair, or thick-plate manufacturing. In these high-heat, high-deposition scenarios, your contact tip takes a beating. The Tweco WeldSkill WS15HFC116 Contact Tip is built to stand up to the challenge. Designed specifically for 1/16" (1.6mm) wire, these tips provide the reliable electrical transfer you need to keep your arc smooth and your puddles consistent. Whether you are pushing solid wire or running flux-cored wire (FCAW), these tips help prevent the stuttering and burn-backs that can ruin a good weld.

Precision and Durability
Nothing is more frustrating than a contact tip that wears out halfway through a pass. Tweco's copper alloy construction offers excellent heat resistance, meaning the tip holds its shape longer even under the intense thermal stress of heavy-duty welding. The bore is precision-drilled to ensure the wire feeds smoothly without snagging, yet remains tight enough to ensure solid electrical contact. This balance is critical for maintaining arc stability and achieving deep, consistent penetration.

Value for the Pro
We know that in a busy shop, time is money. You don't want to be running to the supply cabinet every hour. That is why this product comes in a convenient pack of 25. Stocking up means you always have a fresh tip ready to go when you need it, minimizing downtime and keeping your production line moving. These tips are compatible with Tweco WeldSkill guns and other 15 Series setups, making them a versatile addition to your consumables inventory.
