If you are running a Tweco WeldSkill or the classic No. 2 MIG gun, you know that the front-end parts take a beating. The nozzle insulator is one of those small parts that makes a big difference. The Tweco 1320-1125 (Part 32) is the genuine replacement insulator you need when your old one gets cooked, cracked, or lost on the shop floor. It sits right over your gas diffuser and holds the nozzle in place, making sure the nozzle doesn't touch the live parts of the gun.
Why does this matter? If your insulator is shot, your nozzle can become electrically "hot." If you touch the nozzle to the table or your workpiece, you'll get an arc where you don't want one, potentially ruining your tip, your nozzle, or leaving an ugly arc strike on your part. This high-heat composite insulator is built to handle the heat of day-to-day welding without crumbling apart like some of the cheap knock-offs do. It fits snug, keeping your gas flow centered and your nozzle tight.
This insulator fits a wide range of guns, including the WeldSkill 140, 180, and 220 models often found on portable MIG machines, as well as the industrial standard Tweco No. 2. Changing it out is simple: just pull off the nozzle, slide the old insulator off the diffuser (you might need pliers if it's really baked on), and slip this new one in place. It’s cheap insurance to keep your gun welding like new. Don't let a $5 part ruin a day of welding; keep a few of these 32 insulators in your toolbox.
