QT2-45-12 - Bernard QT2 Series 45-Degree Extended Reach MIG Gun Neck

Genuine Bernard QT2-45-12 Replacement Neck

The Bernard QT2-45-12 Neck is a premium replacement component designed to restore or enhance the performance of your Bernard MIG welding guns. As a critical part of the welding torch assembly, the neck (or gooseneck) dictates the angle of approach and the distance the welder can maintain from the workpiece. This specific model features a 45-degree bend, which is widely regarded as the most versatile angle for general fabrication, allowing for comfortable hand positioning across various welding joints. With an extended length of 12 inches, this neck provides exceptional reach, making it an ideal choice for welding inside deep channels, around complex fixtures, or in large structural assemblies where standard necks fall short.

Manufactured to Bernard's exacting standards, the QT2-45-12 ensures seamless compatibility with Q-Gun, S-Gun, and T-Gun series platforms. The neck is engineered to handle the thermal stresses of high-amperage welding, effectively dissipating heat to prevent overheating of the handle and consumables. Its internal geometry is precision-machined to a 2.2-inch bend radius, a specification chosen to minimize friction on the welding wire liner. This smooth path reduces the likelihood of wire feeding issues, such as bird-nesting or erratic arc stability, which are common problems with inferior aftermarket necks.
