The ESAB 0349501007 Contact Tip is a critical consumable designed for professional MIG/MAG welding applications. Engineered with a precise 1.0mm (0.040") bore, this tip is specifically manufactured to accommodate standard 1.0mm welding wires, ensuring optimal electrical transfer from the power source to the filler metal. The tip features a standard M6 thread, making it widely compatible with ESAB's extensive line of PSF series MIG guns, as well as other torches utilizing the M6 standard. With a length of 27mm, it adheres to industry-standard geometries for gas coverage and stick-out.
Material composition is paramount in contact tip performance. These ESAB tips are crafted from high-grade copper alloy, selected for its superior thermal and electrical conductivity. Efficient heat dissipation is essential to prevent the tip from softening under high-amperage loads, which can lead to keyholing (ovalization of the bore) and subsequent arc instability. By maintaining structural integrity at elevated temperatures, these tips reduce the frequency of burn-backs and micro-arcing inside the bore, phenomena that often lead to premature failure and wire jamming.
In industrial environments, consistency is key. The manufacturing tolerances of the ESAB 0349501007 ensure that every tip in the 10-pack performs identically. The internal bore is finished to reduce friction, allowing the wire to feed smoothly without drag. This is particularly important when using softer wires or longer cable assemblies where feedability issues can be exacerbated by poor-quality consumables. By choosing genuine ESAB parts, operators ensure that the current transfer point remains stable, resulting in a consistent voltage drop and a predictable weld pool.
This product is supplied in a package of 10, providing a cost-effective solution for high-volume welding operations. Regular replacement of contact tips is a standard maintenance procedure to ensure weld quality; having a reliable supply of precision-manufactured tips helps minimize downtime associated with troubleshooting wire feed problems. Whether used in automated setups or manual fabrication, these M6 contact tips deliver the reliability expected from the ESAB brand.
