OVERVIEW

Stop Changing Tips, Start Welding

If you are tired of your contact tips melting, keyholing, or seizing up in the middle of a job, it is time to upgrade to the Lincoln Electric Magnum PRO series. The KP2745-040T is built for the serious welder running .040" wire who needs gear that can keep up with the heat. Rated for a massive 550 amps, these tips are designed to handle the punishment of spray transfer and high-deposition welding without failing prematurely. The tapered shape is a huge quality-of-life improvement, letting you see exactly where your wire is hitting the joint and allowing you to get your nozzle deeper into tight V-grooves or corners without obstruction.

The secret sauce here is Lincoln's Copper Plus™ technology. Standard copper tips get soft when they get hot, leading to the wire wandering and the hole wearing out into an oval (keyholing). These Magnum PRO tips use a special alloy that stays hard even when you are pushing the gun to its duty cycle limits. This means the arc stays focused, the wire feeds smoothly, and you aren't walking back to the tool crib every hour for a fresh tip. It’s about consistent performance; when the tip stays cool, the arc stays stable, and your spatter levels go down.

We also know the frustration of trying to unscrew a tip that has welded itself to the diffuser. You grab the pliers, you strip the threads, and suddenly you need a whole new front end. Lincoln solved this with their Anti-Seize™ thread design. The threads are engineered to dissipate heat and resist fusion, so when it is finally time to swap the tip, it spins out easily. This 10-pack ensures you have plenty of backup, but with the extended life of Copper Plus, you won't be burning through them nearly as fast as generic tips. Keep your arc on and your downtime off with Magnum PRO.

FAQ

This contact tip is designed for use with .040 inch (1.0 mm) diameter welding wire.

The KP2745-040T is rated for up to 550 Amps, making it suitable for high-amperage welding applications.

These tips are compatible with Lincoln Electric Magnum PRO semi-automatic and robotic MIG guns.

A tapered tip gives you better visibility of the weld puddle and helps you fit the nozzle into tighter spots, like corners or deep grooves.

Copper Plus is a proprietary alloy used by Lincoln Electric that resists heat better than standard copper, preventing the tip from softening and wearing out quickly.

They are designed with Anti-Seize threads to prevent fusing, making them much easier to remove than standard tips even after high-heat welding.

This product (KP2745-040T) comes in a package of 10 contact tips.

Yes, as long as the flux-cored wire diameter is .040" and the gun setup is correct, these tips can handle the current required for flux-cored welding.
