The Tweco WeldSkill WS14T-116 is a standard duty contact tip designed for MIG welding applications utilizing 1/16-inch (1.6mm) diameter wire. As part of the renowned 14 Series, this consumable is engineered to fit a broad range of Tweco MIG guns, including the classic No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4 series, as well as various WeldSkill and Mini-MIG gun assemblies. The tip features a standard 1/4"-28 UNF thread, ensuring compatibility with standard gas diffusers such as the 51, 52, and 52FN series.
Manufactured from a high-grade copper alloy, these tips are designed to withstand the thermal cycling inherent in semi-automatic welding processes while maintaining excellent electrical conductivity. The bore is precision-drilled to a nominal diameter of approximately 0.073 inches, providing the necessary clearance for 1/16-inch wire to feed smoothly while ensuring consistent electrical contact for arc initiation and stability. The 1.5-inch overall length is the industry standard for this series, allowing for proper nozzle relationship and gas coverage.
This specific SKU (11401346) represents the WeldSkill packaging configuration, delivering 25 units per pack. This bulk quantity is ideal for industrial environments where consumable turnover is frequent due to high-amperage welding or extended arc-on time. The tips are manufactured to strict tolerances to minimize micro-arcing inside the bore, which can lead to premature failure or burnback issues.
