MIG welding contact tip

The Tweco 358-1160-1105 is a replacement contact tip built for MIG welding guns. It feeds 0.052 inch wire through a HAWA tip body sized to the 16S series. The part is supplied new and ready for installation on compatible Tweco equipment.

Suits 16S guns running .052 wire

Welders using Tweco 16S series guns with 0.052 inch wire will find this tip matches the gun geometry and wire diameter. Shops running a different wire size, a different gun series, or a non-Tweco gun should select the tip specified for that combination.

Wire diameter 0.052 inch

The critical specification is the 0.052 inch wire size marked on the tip as 52 in the 16S-52 designation. If the welding wire is thicker or thinner, the tip will not feed correctly and a different size must be used.

Questions about this item

When should I replace the 16S-52 contact tip?

Replace the tip when the bore wears larger than .052 inch or wire feeding becomes erratic.

What limits continuous welding with the 16S-52 tip?

Heat buildup in the copper HAWA tip body is the first limit during sustained MIG welding.

How hot does the 358-1160-1105 tip get during all-day MIG runs?

The HAWA copper tip conducts welding current directly, so it reaches high temperatures during extended use.
