Tweco 1160-1707 Eliminator Contact Tip 0.045 Inch

Product Description

The TWECO 1160-1707 is a patented Eliminator Series Robotics Contact Tip designed for use with Tweco Eliminator MIG guns rated from 250 to 650 amps. The tip accommodates 0.045 inch wire and measures 1.5 inches in length. Built for extended service life, this contact tip is engineered to outperform standard consumables in demanding robotic and semi-automatic MIG welding applications. It is sold individually and is a direct-fit consumable for Eliminator-style gun assemblies. Welding technicians and robotic welding cell operators install this tip as a routine consumable replacement during scheduled maintenance or mid-shift changeovers.

This contact tip is suited for robotic MIG welding systems as well as manual Eliminator MIG gun setups operating in the 250 to 650 amp range. The 0.045 inch bore size makes it appropriate for applications using standard 0.045 inch solid wire or flux-core wire in that diameter. It is a single-piece consumable sold per each, making it easy to stock in quantity for production environments where tip changes are frequent.

Installation Notes

Contact tip replacement is performed by welding technicians or robotic cell maintenance personnel. Always power down the welding system and allow the gun neck and nozzle to cool completely before removing a spent tip. Use the appropriate tip wrench to avoid cross-threading or damage to the diffuser threads. Verify wire diameter compatibility before installing a new tip to maintain proper current transfer and wire feed performance.
