The Tweco 1240-1216, also identified as model HD24LB62, is a premium heavy-duty brass nozzle designed for industrial MIG welding applications. Part of the widely utilized Tweco 24 Series, this nozzle is engineered to fit Tweco Professional No. 4 and No. 5 MIG guns, as well as Spray Master 350 and 450 series torches. The nozzle features a standard 5/8-inch (15.9 mm) bore, which is the industry standard for general-purpose fabrication, providing an optimal balance of gas coverage and accessibility to the weld joint.
Constructed from a high-grade heavy-duty brass alloy, this nozzle offers superior thermal conductivity and resistance to mechanical deformation compared to standard copper counterparts. The brass material is particularly effective in high-amperage applications where reflected heat from the weld pool can cause rapid deterioration of lesser consumables. The "HD" designation indicates a robust wall thickness designed to withstand the rigors of heavy industrial environments, reducing the frequency of replacements and downtime.
This nozzle utilizes an adjustable slip-on connection mechanism. It fits over the standard 34A or 34CT gas diffusers (insulators), allowing the operator to slide the nozzle forward or backward. This adjustability is critical for setting the correct contact tip-to-nozzle relationship (recess, flush, or stick-out) depending on the welding transfer mode—short circuit, globular, or spray transfer. Supplied in a pack of 2, the 1240-1216 ensures that welding stations remain stocked with high-quality consumables essential for maintaining arc stability and weld quality.
