N-5814C - Bernard Centerfire Copper Nozzle, 5/8" Bore, 1/4" Recess

Maximize Productivity with Bernard Centerfire N-5814C Nozzles

Upgrade your MIG welding setup with the Bernard N-5814C Centerfire™ Nozzle, a component designed to solve common frustration points in the welding shop. If you are tired of struggling with cross-threaded contact tips or inconsistent gas coverage, the Centerfire system is the solution. This specific nozzle, the N-5814C, offers a standard 5/8-inch bore which provides excellent gas coverage for most medium-to-heavy duty welding applications on mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.

The 1/4-inch recessed tip positioning is a favorite among professional welders. By recessing the contact tip slightly inside the nozzle, the tip is shielded from the intense heat of the arc and reflective heat from the base metal. This reduces the frequency of tip burn-back and extends the life of your consumables. Additionally, the recess helps prevent the tip from shorting out against the workpiece when welding in tight corners or deep grooves.

Tool-Free Maintenance

One of the biggest advantages of the N-5814C is the speed of maintenance. Because the nozzle holds the contact tip in place, you can change a contact tip without any tools—simply unscrew the nozzle by hand, drop in a new tip, and screw the nozzle back on. No pliers, no stripped threads, and significantly less downtime. This "Drop-In" technology means you can get back to welding in seconds, not minutes.

Superior Gas Shielding

Quality welds depend on quality shielding. The N-5814C features an integrated spatter shield that smooths out the flow of shielding gas. This results in less turbulence and better protection of the weld pool, ultimately leading to cleaner welds with less oxidation. Whether you are running a Bernard Q-Gun or the newer BTB series, this copper nozzle delivers the reliability and performance professional fabricators demand.
