37287 - ESAB MT Series Contact Tip .040" (Pack of 5)

Genuine ESAB Replacement Contact Tips for MT Series Guns

Keep your welding operations running smoothly with the ESAB 37287 Contact Tip, specifically designed for the widely used MT series of MIG guns. In the world of MIG welding, the contact tip is one of the most critical yet frequently overlooked components. It serves as the final point of electrical transfer to the welding wire, and its condition directly influences the stability of your arc and the quality of your weld. This product is engineered to meet the exact specifications of ESAB and L-Tec MT-200, MT-400, and MT-500 torches, ensuring a perfect fit and reliable performance every time you pull the trigger.

The ESAB 37287 is sized for 0.040-inch (1.0 mm) welding wire, a common diameter for medium-to-heavy fabrication tasks. Using the correct tip size is essential; a tip that is too tight can cause wire shaving and feeding jams, while a tip that is too loose leads to poor electrical contact and a wandering arc. These tips are precision-machined to provide the ideal clearance, allowing the wire to feed smoothly while maintaining constant electrical contact. This balance reduces the frustration of bird-nesting and erratic arc starts, allowing operators to focus on their technique rather than troubleshooting equipment issues.

Constructed from high-quality copper alloy, these contact tips are built to withstand the intense heat and physical wear of industrial environments. Over time, the bore of any contact tip will wear into an oval shape due to the friction of the moving wire, or become clogged with spatter. Replacing your contact tip regularly is a best practice that prevents quality issues before they start. This package contains five (5) contact tips, providing a cost-effective solution for shops that need to keep consumables on hand. Whether you are repairing heavy machinery, fabricating structural steel, or performing general maintenance, having a fresh pack of ESAB 37287 tips ensures you are always ready to weld.

By choosing genuine ESAB parts, you are investing in the longevity of your equipment. Generic consumables often lack the strict quality control and material purity of OEM parts, leading to faster wear and potential damage to the torch head. With the ESAB 37287, you get the assurance of a component designed by the manufacturer to deliver optimal current transfer and heat dissipation, maximizing the duty cycle and efficiency of your MT series MIG gun.
