Tweco 1160-1615 Mig Contact Tip 0.052 in Eliminator

Product Description

The TWECO 1160-1615 is a patented Eliminator Series MIG contact tip designed for extended service life in high-amperage welding applications. It accommodates 0.052-inch wire with a 0.064-inch inner diameter bore and a 0.345-inch outer diameter. At 1.5 inches in length, this tip is engineered specifically for Eliminator-style MIG guns rated from 250 to 650 amps. Licensed welders and MIG technicians working in heavy fabrication, manufacturing, or structural welding will find this tip suited for sustained, high-duty-cycle operation where standard consumables wear prematurely.

This contact tip is intended for use with Tweco Eliminator MIG guns operating in the 250 to 650 amp range. It is a direct-fit consumable for Eliminator-style torches and is sold individually. The extended-life design reduces tip changeover frequency in high-volume production environments, making it a practical choice for shops running continuous or near-continuous MIG welding cycles.

Installation Notes

Contact tip replacement is performed by qualified welding technicians or trained shop personnel. Always power down the welder and allow the gun to cool before removing a worn tip. Use the appropriate tip wrench to avoid cross-threading the new tip into the diffuser. Inspect the gas diffuser and nozzle for wear or spatter buildup during each tip replacement.
