OVERVIEW

Premium Fronius MIG Contact Tip for 1.2mm Wire

Maximize the performance of your Fronius welding system with the genuine Fronius Contact Tip 1.2mm (0.045") M8 CuCrZr. Identified by SKU FB0210506 (and compatible with part number 42,0001,506), this contact tip is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of industrial MIG/MAG welding. The contact tip is the critical transfer point for welding current to the wire; using a high-quality, precision-manufactured tip is essential for maintaining a stable arc and consistent weld quality.

Manufactured from Copper Chrome Zirconium (CuCrZr), this tip offers exceptional resistance to thermal softening and mechanical wear. Unlike standard copper tips, the CuCrZr alloy maintains its hardness even at high temperatures, preventing the bore from becoming oval-shaped ("keyholing") prematurely. This ensures precise wire targeting and reliable electrical contact over a longer service life, reducing downtime for consumable changes.

This M8 threaded tip is designed for seamless compatibility with a wide range of Fronius torches, including the MTG, MTW, AL, and AW series, as well as select Robacta robotic torches. Whether you are welding mild steel or stainless steel, this 1.2mm tip provides the reliability needed for high-duty cycle applications.

Key Benefits

  • Extended Lifespan: CuCrZr alloy withstands higher heat and abrasion than standard copper.
  • Stable Arc: Precision bore tolerances ensure consistent current transfer.
  • Versatile Fit: Standard M8 thread fits most industrial Fronius MIG guns.
  • Reduced Downtime: Fewer tip changes mean more arc-on time.

FAQ

This contact tip is designed for 1.2mm (0.045") welding wire.

It features a standard M8 thread, common on many Fronius industrial torches.

E-Cu (Electrolytic Copper) is softer and cheaper, suitable for low amps. CuCrZr (Copper Chrome Zirconium) is harder and more heat-resistant, lasting significantly longer in high-heat or high-duty cycle applications.

Yes, it is compatible with Fronius MTW (water-cooled) and MTG (gas-cooled) torch series that use M8 tips.

Replace the tip when the bore becomes oval (keyholing), causing arc instability, or if burnback occurs fusing the wire to the tip.

While the size matches, aluminum wire typically requires a slightly larger bore tolerance due to thermal expansion. Fronius offers specific tips marked with an 'A' or made of E-Cu for aluminum to prevent seizing.

Yes, this product corresponds to the specifications of the standard Fronius 42,0001,506 contact tip.
