OVERVIEW

Precision Binzel Style M8 Contact Tip for Heavy-Duty Welding

The 140-0587 Contact Tip is a premium aftermarket consumable designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial MIG welding. Engineered specifically for use with 1/16" (1.6mm) welding wire, this contact tip ensures optimal electrical conductivity and smooth wire feeding, which are critical for maintaining a stable arc and achieving high-quality welds.

Manufactured to precise tolerances, this tip features a standard M8 thread, making it fully compatible with Binzel MB36 and MB501 style MIG guns. It is designed to thread securely into 142-0020 and 142-0022 tip holders, providing a tight mechanical connection that minimizes heat buildup and resistance. The high-grade copper construction offers excellent thermal properties, allowing the tip to withstand the high heat associated with heavy-amperage welding often used with thicker 1/16" wires.

Regular replacement of contact tips is essential for preventing issues such as arc instability, burnback, and irregular wire feeding. This generic replacement part offers the durability and performance required for professional fabrication environments while providing significant cost savings compared to OEM alternatives. Whether you are welding structural steel, heavy machinery, or performing maintenance repairs, this contact tip delivers the reliability needed for continuous operation.

FAQ

This contact tip is designed for Binzel style MB36 and MB501 MIG guns.

It features an M8 thread.

This tip is sized for 1/16" (1.6mm) welding wire.

It fits tip holders with part numbers 142-0020 and 142-0022.

No, this is a high-quality generic replacement part designed to Binzel specifications.

You should change the tip when the bore becomes oval-shaped (keyholing), if the wire sticks (burnback), or if the arc becomes unstable.

No, this tip is specifically for 1/16" wire. Using smaller wire will result in poor electrical contact and an erratic arc.

It is made of copper for optimal electrical conductivity and heat dissipation.
