11-23 - Tweco Style 11-23 Contact Tip .023 (25 Pack) for MIG Guns

Precision Engineering for Stable Arc Transfer

The Tweco Style 11-23 Contact Tip is a fundamental component designed to ensure optimal electrical conductivity and arc stability in Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) processes. Engineered to meet or exceed OEM specifications, these contact tips are manufactured from premium copper alloy tubing. This material choice is critical, as it provides the necessary thermal conductivity to dissipate heat generated at the contact point, thereby reducing the risk of tip deformation and keyholing during prolonged welding sessions. The internal diameter is machined to a strict tolerance of +/- .003 inches, ensuring a precise fit for .023" (0.6mm) welding wire while allowing for smooth wire feeding without excessive drag.

Designed for versatility and broad compatibility, the 11-23 tip features a standard 1/4"-28 UNF thread, making it directly compatible with the widely used 35-50 gas diffusers found in Tweco No. 1, Tweco Mini-MIG, and Lincoln Electric Magnum 100L MIG guns. This specific tip geometry is rated for welding applications up to 200 amperes, making it suitable for light-to-medium duty fabrication tasks often associated with automotive bodywork and thin sheet metal fabrication. The consistent concentricity of the bore relative to the outer diameter ensures that the wire exits the gun in a predictable manner, which is essential for automated or high-precision manual welding.

In industrial MRO environments, the reliability of consumables is paramount to maintaining uptime. These generic replacements for the Tweco 1110-1100 part number offer a reliable alternative that maintains the electrical integrity of the welding circuit. By ensuring a positive electrical connection with the wire, these tips minimize voltage drops and micro-arcing within the tip bore, phenomena that typically lead to premature failure and burn-back. Supplied in a convenient 25-pack, this product supports efficient inventory management for workshops requiring consistent consumable replacement schedules.
