11601761 - Tweco Velocity VTH-35 Heavy Duty Contact Tip (10-Pack)

Reliable High-Performance Consumables for Industrial Fabrication

The Tweco Velocity VTH-35 Contact Tip (Part Number 1160-1761) represents a leap forward in MIG welding consumable technology, designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial manufacturing and heavy fabrication. Sold in a pack of 10, these heavy-duty tips are engineered for use with 0.035-inch (0.9mm) welding wire, a standard gauge for a wide variety of structural and automotive applications. The 'VTH' designation stands for Velocity Tip Heavy Duty, indicating a robust construction capable of sustaining higher amperages and longer arc-on times compared to standard duty tips.

The core innovation of the Velocity series is its threadless, drop-in design. Traditional threaded tips often suffer from cross-threading or seizing due to thermal expansion and spatter accumulation. The Velocity system eliminates these issues by using a unique cam-lock mechanism that seats the tip firmly with a simple rotation. This ensures a consistent electrical connection and maximizes heat transfer away from the tip, prolonging the life of the consumable and reducing production downtime. For procurement managers and shop foremen, the 10-pack packaging ensures that welding stations remain stocked with high-quality components, minimizing interruptions in workflow.

Compatible with Tweco Fusion MIG guns and Spray Master guns retrofitted with Velocity conductor tubes, the VTH-35 integrates seamlessly into existing Tweco setups. The solid copper alloy provides excellent conductivity, ensuring a stable arc and consistent weld bead profile. By choosing Tweco Velocity consumables, operations can expect reduced troubleshooting time related to wire feeding and arc instability, leading to overall improved productivity and cost-efficiency.
