Pro-source 206190 Mig Welder Contact Tip 1/16 in Wire Od

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE 206190 is a MIG welder contact tip designed to guide the consumable wire electrode through the welding gun and into the weld pool with consistent electrical contact. It accepts wire outside diameters from 0 inches up to 1/16 inch (0.0938 decimal inch, 1.60 mm), making it suited for light-gauge wire applications. The tip measures 1.25 inches in length with a 0.31-inch width and depth profile. Welders and fabrication technicians install this tip as a routine consumable replacement during MIG welding operations to maintain arc stability and minimize wire feed resistance.

This contact tip is appropriate for MIG welding setups using small-diameter wire electrodes in light fabrication, sheet metal work, and repair welding applications. It fits welding guns configured for wire in the 0 to 1/16-inch OD range. The compact dimensions make it suitable for standard MIG gun tip threading on benchtop and portable wire-feed welders commonly used in light industrial and maintenance environments. This item is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 25 units, making it practical for shop restocking.

Key Features

• Accepts wire outside diameters up to 1/16 inch (0.0938 decimal inch / 1.60 mm)
• Compact 1.25-inch length fits standard MIG gun tip seats
• 0.31-inch diameter profile for tight gun neck clearance
• Lightweight at 0.03 pounds for minimal gun balance impact
• Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 25 units for shop-level restocking

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement contact tip for MIG welding guns configured to run wire electrodes in the 0 to 1/16-inch outside diameter range. Verify gun tip thread pitch and tip seat geometry before installation.

Installation Notes

Contact tips are installed by welding technicians as part of routine MIG gun consumable maintenance. Always power down the welder and allow the gun neck to cool before removing a worn tip. Use the correct tip wrench or pliers to avoid cross-threading the tip into the gun diffuser. Inspect the contact bore for elongation or spatter buildup and replace the tip at the first sign of irregular arc behavior or wire feed resistance.
