OVERVIEW

Keep Your Millermatic Running Smoothly

Don't let a worn-out gun part compromise your weld quality. The Miller 169728 Contact Tip Adapter is the genuine replacement part you need to keep your MIGmatic M-25 or M-40 gun performing like new. Whether you are welding in your garage with a Millermatic 212 or running production with a Millermatic 252, this adapter is the unsung hero that holds your contact tip securely in place and ensures the welding current gets exactly where it needs to go.

Over time, the constant heat and current of welding can take a toll on your gun's front-end consumables. If you are experiencing an unstable arc, burn-backs, or if your contact tips are constantly loosening, it might be time to replace the adapter. A fresh adapter ensures a tight, conductive connection, giving you that crisp, frying-bacon sound you look for in a perfect MIG weld. Because these are genuine Miller parts, you don't have to worry about cross-threading or poor fitment that often comes with generic knock-offs.

This convenient 2-pack is a must-have for any welder's toolbox. Having a spare adapter on hand means you won't be stuck waiting for parts in the middle of a project. These adapters are built to Miller's high standards for durability and performance, ensuring they stand up to the demands of daily welding. They are compatible with a huge lineup of classic and modern Miller machines, making them a versatile addition to your shop's inventory.

Installation is simple: just unscrew the old adapter from the gun tube and screw on the new one. Pair it with fresh Miller contact tips and a clean nozzle, and you will see an immediate improvement in your gun's consistency. Invest in genuine Miller consumables to protect your equipment and improve your results.
