OVERVIEW

Genuine Tweco 16S-52 Contact Tip for .052" Wire

The Tweco 16S-52 Contact Tip (Part Number 1160-1105) is a premium OEM consumable designed for heavy-duty MIG welding applications. Engineered by Tweco, a leader in arc welding products, this contact tip is part of the robust 16S Series, known for its durability and performance in industrial environments. It is specifically machined to accommodate .052-inch (1.3mm) welding wire, ensuring a precise fit that promotes optimal electrical conductivity and arc stability.

Constructed from a high-quality copper alloy, the 16S-52 tip excels at thermal management, effectively dissipating heat generated during high-amperage welding processes. This thermal efficiency helps prolong the life of the tip and reduces the frequency of replacements, thereby minimizing downtime. The tip features a standard geometry with a 3/8"-24 UNF thread, making it compatible with a wide range of Tweco MIG guns, including the popular Spray Master series and other professional-grade torches that utilize heavy-duty consumables.

Using genuine Tweco consumables like the 1160-1105 ensures that your welding equipment operates at peak efficiency. The consistent bore diameter reduces friction on the wire, preventing feeding issues such as bird-nesting or erratic arc behavior. Whether used in fabrication shops, manufacturing plants, or heavy equipment repair, the Tweco 16S-52 contact tip delivers the reliability professionals demand.
