KP2103-2B1 - Lincoln Electric 1/16" Contact Tip, 3/8" Length, 10-Pack

Reliable Consumables for Industrial Welding

The Lincoln Electric KP2103-2B1 Contact Tip is a specialized consumable designed to maintain the efficiency and reliability of your welding operations. In the world of industrial fabrication, the quality of small components often dictates the overall productivity of the line. This contact tip is engineered specifically for welding wires with a diameter of 1/16 inch (1.6 mm), making it suitable for heavy-duty applications where larger wire sizes are required for higher deposition rates. The tip features a compact length of 3/8 inch (9.5 mm), a specific dimension that ensures compatibility with designated Lincoln Electric welding gun assemblies.

Procurement managers and facility maintenance teams understand that using Genuine Lincoln Electric parts is crucial for maintaining equipment warranties and ensuring long-term performance. These contact tips are manufactured to strict tolerances, ensuring that the internal bore perfectly matches the wire diameter. This precision reduces friction while maintaining the necessary electrical contact for a stable arc. The KP2103-2B1 comes with a 16-thread specification, allowing for a secure and tight fit into the gas diffuser or torch head, preventing loosening during the thermal expansion and contraction cycles typical in welding environments.

Supplied in a convenient pack of 10, this product allows workshops to maintain adequate stock levels, minimizing the risk of work stoppages due to a lack of consumables. Regular replacement of contact tips is a standard maintenance procedure; as the bore wears out (becomes oval-shaped), the electrical transfer becomes inconsistent, leading to poor weld quality. By stocking the KP2103-2B1, you ensure that your welding operators have immediate access to fresh tips, keeping your production schedule on track. Whether for structural steel, heavy equipment repair, or general manufacturing, these tips provide the durability and consistency expected from the Lincoln Electric brand.

Investing in OEM consumables like the KP2103-2B1 is an investment in quality assurance. Generic alternatives often suffer from inferior copper alloys or poor machining, which can lead to premature failure or damage to the welding gun liner. Lincoln Electric's commitment to quality ensures that every tip in the 10-pack performs identically, providing peace of mind for supply chain managers and welding supervisors alike.
