140-0653 - Binzel Style MB36 Contact Tip 5/64" (2.0mm) M8 - 10 Pack

Product Overview

The 140-0653 Contact Tip is a high-quality aftermarket consumable designed to be fully compatible with Binzel MB36 style MIG welding guns. This specific contact tip is engineered to accommodate 5/64-inch (approximately 2.0mm) welding wire, making it an essential component for heavy-industrial welding applications where larger diameter wires are utilized for higher deposition rates. The tip features a standard M8 thread, ensuring a precise and secure fit into the gas diffuser or tip holder of standard MB36 torches.

Material and Construction

Manufactured from high-grade Copper (Cu), this contact tip offers excellent electrical conductivity and thermal transfer properties. The copper construction ensures that the welding current is efficiently transferred to the wire with minimal resistance, which is critical for maintaining a stable arc and preventing premature burn-back. While standard copper tips are the industry standard for general fabrication, they are designed to wear over time; this product is supplied in a pack of 10 to assist inventory management and ensure welders have immediate access to replacements.

Compatibility and Usage

This contact tip is specifically dimensioned for the MB36 series of air-cooled MIG guns, a popular platform in medium-to-heavy fabrication environments. The M8 thread specification distinguishes it from smaller torches (which often use M6), reflecting the higher amperage rating of the MB36 system. It is suitable for use with solid wires, flux-cored wires, and metal-cored wires of the corresponding 5/64" diameter. As a generic/aftermarket part, it provides a cost-efficient alternative to OEM branded consumables without compromising on fit or function.
