071825 - Miller Roughneck .030 Contact Tip 25-Pack

Precision Miller Consumables for Professional Results

Maximize the efficiency of your welding operations with the Miller 071825 .030" Contact Tips. Specifically manufactured for the Miller Roughneck Series of MIG guns, these tips are built to deliver superior arc starting and stability. The contact tip is the final point of electrical contact for the welding wire, making its quality and condition a determining factor in the overall success of the weld. Miller's manufacturing process ensures that the bore diameter is perfectly sized for .030" wire, minimizing micro-arcing inside the tip which can lead to premature failure and burn-back.

The 071825 model features a 1.312-inch length and a threaded base for easy installation. The "Multi-Turn" design referenced in some Miller documentation for this series implies a secure threading system that enhances the surface area contact between the tip and the diffuser. This improved contact aids in keeping the tip cooler by effectively transferring heat away from the arc zone, thereby extending the service life of the consumable. Cooler running tips pick up less spatter and maintain their structural integrity longer than inferior counterparts.

Essential Maintenance for MIG Welding

In any MIG welding setup, the contact tip is the most frequently replaced component. As the wire feeds through, it wears the bore into an oval shape, which causes the arc to wander and become unstable. Using fresh Miller 071825 tips ensures the wire is directed precisely into the weld joint. This 25-pack offering provides excellent value for professional welders who demand consistency. Whether you are welding mild steel, stainless, or aluminum (with appropriate liners), starting with a fresh contact tip is the best way to troubleshoot feed issues.

Technical Specifications

These tips are rated for the amperage ranges typically associated with Roughneck guns and .030" wire applications. The copper alloy material is selected for its balance of hardness and conductivity. When installing, ensure the threads are clean and tighten snugly to prevent high-resistance heating. Keep your inventory stocked with this 25-pack to avoid downtime and keep your production line moving smoothly.
