12601652 - Tweco EL24CT-62 Eliminator MIG Nozzle, 5/8" Bore, Coarse Thread (2-Pack)

High-Performance Gas Shielding for Eliminator Series Guns

The Tweco EL24CT-62 Nozzle is a premium consumable component engineered specifically for the Tweco Eliminator series of air-cooled MIG guns. This package contains two (2) high-quality nozzles, ensuring that welding operations can maintain continuity without interruption due to consumable wear. The EL24CT-62 is characterized by its 5/8-inch (15.9 mm) bore diameter, which is the industry-standard size for a wide range of medium-to-heavy duty fabrication tasks. This bore size provides an optimal balance between gas flow velocity and coverage area, making it suitable for solid wires ranging from 0.035" to 1/16" and flux-cored wires in similar diameters.

A defining feature of this nozzle is the "CT" designation, which stands for Coarse Thread. Unlike fine-threaded nozzles that can easily cross-thread or seize due to thermal expansion and spatter accumulation, the coarse thread design allows for quick, quarter-turn style engagement. This robust threading ensures that the nozzle remains securely seated during operation but can be easily removed for cleaning or contact tip changes. The nozzle seats directly onto the gas diffuser, simplifying the front-end assembly of the MIG gun.

Constructed from a durable copper alloy, the EL24CT-62 excels in thermal management. The material effectively draws heat away from the contact tip and diffuser, radiating it outwards to prevent overheating and prolonging the life of the entire front-end consumable set. The nozzle is self-insulated, featuring high-temperature insulation material integrated into the design, which prevents electrical potential on the nozzle surface and eliminates the need for a separate, fragile insulator part. This design streamlines inventory management and reduces the number of parts required to keep the gun operational. The recessed tip relationship typically associated with this part number aids in maintaining a proper stick-out and protects the contact tip from direct spatter accumulation.
