OVERVIEW

Tweco 63-60 Conductor Tube (Stock No. 1600-1101)

The Tweco 1600-1101 is a high-performance conductor tube, commonly referred to as a gooseneck, designed specifically for the legendary Tweco Classic No. 3 MIG gun series. Identified by the model number 63-60, this component features a standard 60-degree bend, which is the most versatile and widely used angle for general fabrication and manufacturing applications. It serves as the critical bridge between the gun handle and the consumables, carrying both the welding current and the shielding gas to the weld pool.

Constructed from high-quality copper alloy and protected by a durable metal jacket and insulation, this conductor tube is built to handle the thermal stresses of welding at up to 300 amps. A damaged or bent conductor tube can lead to severe wire feeding issues, erratic arcs due to poor conductivity, and gas coverage problems. Replacing a worn neck with this genuine Tweco part ensures that the liner sits correctly and the gas flows without turbulence.

Installation is straightforward, utilizing Tweco's proven connection design to ensure a tight, leak-free fit with the gun handle. The output end is threaded to accept standard Tweco gas diffusers (such as the 52 or 52-23 series), allowing for the use of standard nozzles and contact tips. Whether you are repairing a damaged gun or refurbishing older equipment, the 1600-1101 ensures your Tweco No. 3 gun operates at peak efficiency.

FAQ

The Tweco 1600-1101 (Model 63-60) has a 60-degree bend angle.

This conductor tube is designed for the Tweco Classic No. 3 MIG gun, rated for 300 amps.

No, this is the conductor tube (gooseneck) only. The gas diffuser, nozzle, and contact tips are sold separately.

Yes, this is a genuine Tweco component, stock number 1600-1101.

It is rated for 300 Amps, matching the capacity of the No. 3 gun.

No, the No. 4 gun typically uses the 64-series conductor tubes (e.g., 64-60), which are physically larger to handle higher amperage (400A).

Signs include erratic wire feeding, the neck becoming excessively hot, visible physical damage (bends/cracks), or internal blockages that cannot be cleared.

The difference is the angle of the bend. The 63-60 is 60 degrees, while the 63-45 is 45 degrees. Both fit the No. 3 gun.
