Tweco 1160-1752 Mig Contact Tip 0.035 Inch

Product Description

The TWECO 1160-1752 is a Velocity2a series MIG contact tip designed for 0.035 inch wire diameter. It provides the electrical contact point between the welding wire and the gun, transferring current at the point of wire exit. The Velocity2a design reduces the total number of thread sets to one, pairing brass threads against heat-treated stainless steel to minimize seizing and cross-threading. This tip is installed by welding professionals as a routine consumable replacement during MIG gun servicing.

The 1160-1752 fits into the Tweco Velocity2a MIG gun system and is sold in a minimum quantity of 10 per order. The single-thread engagement design speeds up tip changes and reduces the tool count needed on the job. The brass-to-stainless thread interface maintains a secure connection during welding without locking up from heat exposure. This tip suits production and fabrication environments where MIG welding downtime from consumable failure is a real cost concern.

Key Features

• 0.035 inch bore diameter for precise wire fit and consistent current transfer
• Single thread set design reduces cross-threading and seizing compared to standard two- or three-thread MIG consumables
• Brass threads mate against heat-treated stainless steel threads for a grip-and-hold interface that resists loosening
• Tool-free installation compatible with the Velocity2a nozzle and gooseneck system
• Sold in packs of 10, reducing per-tip cost for high-volume applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with the Tweco Velocity2a MIG gun system. Accepts 0.035 inch welding wire. Verify nozzle and diffuser compatibility with the Velocity2a platform before ordering.

Installation Notes

Contact tips are installed by welding professionals as part of routine MIG gun consumable maintenance. Power down and disconnect the welding machine before replacing the contact tip. Allow the gun and nozzle to cool fully before handling to avoid burns. Hand-tighten only — no tools are required for the Velocity2a thread design.
