The Tweco WeldSkill WS16S35 is a standard-duty contact tip designed for GMAW (MIG) and FCAW (Flux-Cored) welding applications utilizing 0.035-inch (0.9mm) welding wire. As part of the 16 Series consumable line, this contact tip features the industry-standard dimensions required for compatibility with a wide range of Tweco MIG guns, including the Classic No. 3, No. 4, and Spray Master series, as well as various WeldSkill gun models.
Manufactured from a high-grade copper alloy, the WS16S35 ensures optimal electrical conductivity at the point of contact, which is critical for maintaining a stable arc and minimizing voltage drop across the contact interface. The tip is machined with a 3/8"-24 UNF thread, providing a secure mechanical and electrical connection to the gas diffuser. With an overall length of 1.5 inches (38.1mm) and an outside diameter of 0.375 inches (9.5mm), it fits standard nozzle assemblies without obstructing gas flow.
The bore tolerance is precision-engineered to accommodate 0.035" wire with minimal friction while ensuring sufficient electrical contact. This balance reduces micro-arcing inside the tip, thereby extending the service life of the consumable. This SKU (11601425) represents a bulk package containing 25 individual contact tips, making it a strategic procurement choice for industrial environments where consumable turnover is frequent.
