Bernard 403-20-116-25 Mig Welding Contact Tip 1/16 in

Product Description

The BERNARD 403-20-116-25 is a MIG welding contact tip designed for wire-feed welding applications. Contact tips are consumable components that guide the welding wire from the gun liner to the arc, transferring current to the wire as it exits the torch. This tip is sized for 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) welding wire. It is a standard replacement consumable installed by welding professionals and maintenance technicians during routine torch service or when tip wear causes arc instability or wire feeding issues.

This contact tip is suited for MIG welding operations using 1/16 inch solid or flux-core wire. It fits into compatible BERNARD MIG gun torch bodies as a direct replacement consumable. Typical applications include structural fabrication, maintenance and repair welding, and production welding environments where consistent current transfer and wire guidance are required to maintain weld quality.

Key Features

• Sized for 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) welding wire for precise wire guidance
• Designed as a consumable replacement to restore arc stability and feeding performance
• Compact, lightweight construction at 0.1 pounds for easy handling during torch service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement contact tip for BERNARD MIG welding guns accepting 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) wire. No additional compatible model numbers were specified in the product data.

Installation Notes

Contact tip replacement is performed by welding technicians or maintenance personnel. Always disconnect the welding machine from its power source and allow the torch to cool completely before servicing. Use the appropriate tip wrench to remove the worn tip and thread in the replacement, taking care not to cross-thread. Inspect the nozzle, liner, and retaining hardware for wear at the same time to avoid premature tip failure after reinstallation.
