OVERVIEW

Reach More Joints with the Tweco 1640-1308 Flexible Neck

Every welder knows the frustration of trying to lay a perfect bead in a tight corner or around an obstacle where a standard rigid gun just won't fit. You end up contorting your body, compromising your travel angle, and often producing a sub-par weld that requires grinding and rework. The Tweco 1640-1308 Flexible Conductor Tube is designed to solve exactly this problem. By replacing your standard rigid neck with this flexible 80-degree tube, you gain the ability to adjust your approach and get the nozzle exactly where it needs to be.

This isn't just about reaching tight spots; it's about comfort and ergonomics. The 80-degree angle is a classic configuration that reduces wrist strain during long welding sessions, particularly in horizontal and vertical positions. The added flexibility means you can tweak the neck slightly to suit your personal preference or the specific demands of the job at hand. Because it is a genuine Tweco part, you can trust that the copper quality is top-tier, delivering the smooth, consistent current transfer you need for a stable arc.

Installation is straightforward. If your current conductor tube is damaged—perhaps the threads are stripped, the insulation is cut, or the internal liner path is kinked—swapping it out for the 1640-1308 is a quick fix that restores your gun to like-new performance. A fresh conductor tube ensures that your wire feeds smoothly without drag, reducing bird-nesting and burn-backs. The durable outer jacket is built to withstand the heat and spatter of the industrial environment, ensuring that this neck lasts through the toughest jobs.

Don't let a rigid torch limit your welding capabilities. Upgrade your Tweco Mini-MIG or compatible gun with the 1640-1308 Flexible Conductor Tube and experience the difference that the right angle and a little flexibility can make in your daily fabrication work. Whether you are working on automotive exhaust, structural frames, or general repairs, this gooseneck gives you the control you need.
