OVERVIEW

Restore Your Gun's Performance

Is your Tweco #1 MIG gun sputtering, feeding wire poorly, or getting unusually hot? The problem might not be your machine—it could be the neck. The Tweco 1610-1105 (Part No. 61-80) is the genuine replacement conductor tube for Tweco No. 1 series guns. Over time, conductor tubes can get bent from drops, clogged with spatter, or the internal surface can wear down, causing friction that ruins your wire feed. Swapping out an old, beat-up neck for a fresh one is one of the fastest ways to make an old gun feel brand new again.

This tube features a standard 80-degree bend, which is the classic angle most welders prefer for general bench work and fabrication. It provides a comfortable hand position while keeping the nozzle at the right angle for the puddle. The heavy-duty insulation protects the neck from shorting out against your table or workpiece, while the copper core ensures maximum power gets to your contact tip. Don't fight with erratic arcs or jerky wire feeding; replace the neck and get back to laying smooth beads.

Designed for durability, this gooseneck stands up to the heat and abuse of daily shop life. Whether you are repairing a legacy Tweco gun or maintaining a fleet of Spray Master units, this part ensures everything fits perfectly—from the liner running through the back to the nozzle screwing on the front. Keep a spare in your maintenance kit to avoid downtime.

Why Replace Your Conductor Tube?

  • Fix Feeding Issues: Worn internal paths cause wire drag.
  • Improve Conductivity: Damaged copper loses efficiency and creates heat.
  • Safety: Cracked insulation can lead to dangerous electrical shorts.
