It features a 0.064-inch nominal bore diameter, a 0.375-inch OD, and measures 1.5 inches in length. The tip is machined from 122 DHP copper alloy tubing using extrusion or gun-drilling methods, producing a consistent, smooth inside diameter surface held to a tolerance of plus or minus 0.003 inches. Thread size is M8 x 1.25-6g. Licensed welding technicians and MIG gun operators install this tip as a consumable replacement on MIG welding guns rated up to 600 amps. Each tip is marked with the part number and wire diameter for quick field identification. Sold in packs of 25.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis contact tip is suited for standard MIG welding applications up to 600 amps. The threaded design ensures consistent contact with a compatible gas diffuser when installed on a MIG gun. The twist-lock feature allows the tip to lock in place without thread engagement concerns. When the primary wear point is reached, a quarter-turn clockwise rotation exposes a new wear point, effectively doubling the service life of the tip. The thick-walled copper construction acts as a heat sink, drawing heat away from the arc source during operation. Compatible with slip-on and thread-on nozzle styles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachined from 122 DHP copper alloy tubing for consistent, smooth bore surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInside diameter tolerance held to plus or minus 0.003 inches for reliable wire feed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwist-lock design locks tip in place and increases electrical contact surface area\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotatable wear point extends tip life — quarter-turn clockwise reveals a fresh wear surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThick-walled design conducts heat away from the arc source\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach tip stamped with part number and wire diameter for easy identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for standard welding applications up to 600 amps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with MIG guns accepting M8 x 1.25-6g threaded contact tips and compatible with slip-on or thread-on nozzle styles rated up to 600 amps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by welding technicians during routine MIG gun consumable replacement. Power down and disconnect the welding machine before servicing the gun neck or replacing contact tips. Ensure the gas diffuser threads are clean and undamaged before seating the tip. Do not overtighten — the twist-lock interface is designed to seat with hand engagement and a quarter-turn lock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.052 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBore Diameter (Nominal ID)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.064 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eID Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: plus or minus 0.003 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M8 x 1.25-6g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Amperage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 600 amps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 122 DHP copper alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity per Pack\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUOM\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: TWECO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1160-1138\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TWECO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344052420914,"sku":"1160-1138","price":125.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310545831.jpg?v=1782027902","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/tweco-1160-1138-mig-contact-tip-0-052-in-25-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
