Machined from 122 DHP copper alloy tubing, the tip delivers consistent electrical conductivity and a smooth inside diameter surface held to a tolerance of plus or minus 0.003 inches. The nominal inside diameter is 0.09 inches with an outside diameter of 0.375 inches and an overall length of 1.5 inches. Licensed welding technicians and MIG welders working in fabrication, manufacturing, and structural applications install this tip as a standard consumable replacement on MIG welding guns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis contact tip is suited for heavy-duty MIG welding environments where consistent wire feed and reliable electrical contact are critical. The M8 x 1.25-6g thread size provides a secure, proper-contact fit with a standard gas diffuser when threaded into a compatible MIG gun assembly. It is intended for continuous or high-cycle production welding applications where amp loads approach 600 A. Each tip is marked with the part number and wire diameter to simplify inventory management and quick identification during gun changeovers on the shop floor or in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for heavy-duty welding applications up to 600 amps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachined from 122 DHP copper alloy tubing for consistent, smooth inside diameter 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\u003eM8 x 1.25-6g thread size ensures secure fit with compatible gas diffusers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number and wire diameter marked on each tip for easy identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNominal 0.09 inch bore accommodates 3\/32 inch (0.078 inch) welding wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement contact tip for MIG welding guns accepting M8 x 1.25-6g threaded tips with a 0.375 inch outside diameter and 1.5 inch length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eContact tips are installed and replaced by qualified welding technicians or MIG welders during routine gun maintenance. Always power down the welding machine and allow the gun to cool before removing or installing a contact tip. Use appropriate tip removal tools to avoid damaging the gas diffuser threads. Inspect the gas diffuser for thread wear or spatter buildup before threading in the replacement tip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.078 inches (3\/32 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBore (Nominal ID)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.09 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside 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 Current Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 600 amps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: plus or minus 0.003 inches\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\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 608246373850\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: 1160-1430\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TWECO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346539348274,"sku":"1160-1430","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310545807.jpg?v=1782083168","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/tweco-1160-1430-mig-contact-tip-0-078-in-wire-1-5-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
