176797 - Miller .030 Contact Tip for M-Series MIG Guns

Reliable Performance for Your Miller MIG Gun

Every welder knows that the contact tip is the heart of the MIG gun. It is the final point of contact where the welding power is transferred to the wire, and its condition directly affects the quality of your weld. The Miller 176797 Contact Tip is the genuine replacement part for your .030" wire setup, designed to keep your Millermatic or Hobart welder running smoothly. Whether you are fabricating in a shop or performing repairs in the field, using genuine Miller consumables ensures that your equipment performs exactly as the engineers intended.

These tips are built to withstand the heat and abuse of daily welding. The 1.312-inch length is the standard size for many of the most popular guns in the industry, including the M-25 gun found on many Millermatic 250 and 252 machines, and the M-10/M-15 guns on smaller units. A worn contact tip can cause a host of frustrating problems, from "roaming" arcs to wire burnback that fuses the wire to the tip. By replacing your tip regularly with a fresh Miller 176797, you ensure consistent wire feeding and a crisp, stable arc.

Don't let a cheap generic tip ruin your bead. These tips feature a smooth internal bore that reduces friction, allowing the wire to glide through effortlessly. This is particularly important when using softer wires or when welding out of position where feedability is paramount. Keep a pack of these in your toolbox so you are never caught off guard by a worn-out tip in the middle of a project.
