KP3160-1-50F - Lincoln Electric Magnum PRO 350A Nozzle | 1/2" ID Flush Thread-On

Lincoln Electric KP3160-1-50F Magnum PRO 350A Thread-On Nozzle

The Lincoln Electric KP3160-1-50F is a high-performance gas nozzle engineered specifically for the Magnum PRO 350A series of semi-automatic welding guns. This consumable is a critical component for maintaining shielding gas coverage and protecting the front-end parts of your MIG gun during intense welding operations. Featuring a 1/2-inch (12.7 mm) inner diameter, this nozzle provides a balanced gas flow ideal for standard wire sizes ranging from .035 to 5/64 inches, ensuring porosity-free welds in various applications.

Constructed with durability in mind, the KP3160-1-50F features a robust nickel plating. This specialized finish significantly reduces spatter adhesion, allowing for easier cleaning and a longer service life compared to standard copper nozzles. The bottleneck shape is designed to taper towards the work end, offering the welder improved visibility of the weld puddle and better access into restricted spaces or tight corners. This specific model offers a "Flush" tip relationship, meaning the contact tip sits flush with the end of the nozzle, which is a versatile configuration suitable for a wide range of short-circuit and spray transfer modes.

One of the standout features of the Magnum PRO consumable line is the secure thread-on mechanism. Unlike slip-on nozzles that can become loose or misaligned, the KP3160-1-50F threads directly onto the gas diffuser. This ensures precise concentricity between the contact tip and the nozzle bore, resulting in consistent gas shielding and arc stability. The threads are engineered to be coarse, which helps prevent the nozzle from seizing to the diffuser even after repeated thermal cycling and heavy use. This nozzle is rated for 350 amps, making it robust enough for industrial fabrication environments.

Key Features:

• Precise Fit: Thread-on connection guarantees alignment.
• Spatter Resistance: Nickel plating sheds spatter easily.
• Versatile Design: Flush tip alignment for general welding.
• Heat Management: Designed to dissipate heat effectively to keep the gun cool.
