Xtrweld 7490 Mig Contact Tip Bernard Style 0.045 in 10 Pack

Product Description

The XTRWELD 7490 is an OEM-quality MIG contact tip designed to Bernard style specifications, sold in a 10-piece bag. Contact tips thread into the MIG gun nozzle assembly and guide the welding wire through the arc zone, directly affecting arc stability, wire feed consistency, and weld quality. This tip is sized at 0.045 inches to match 0.045-inch solid wire or flux-core wire applications. The 7490 is part of a consumable system intended to give professional welders a reliable, cost-effective replacement option without sacrificing fit or performance.

This contact tip is suited for production welding, fabrication shops, and field repair work where Bernard-style MIG guns are in use. It is compatible with Bernard BTB, S-Gun, and W-Gun platforms. These tips are marked with the part number and wire size for fast identification at the gun, which reduces downtime during tip changes on active jobs. They are appropriate for both short-circuit and spray transfer processes using standard MIG wire at 0.045 inches.

Installation Notes

Contact tip replacement is a routine consumable task performed by welders and MIG gun service technicians. Before changing a contact tip, power down the welder and allow the nozzle assembly to cool completely to avoid burns. Use the correct tip wrench or pliers to avoid cross-threading — hand-tighten first, then snug with a tool. Inspect the liner and gas diffuser each time tips are changed to prevent feeding issues that are often mistakenly attributed to the tip.
