- 1 in. (25.4 mm) tip diameter: Conforms to industry-standard sizing for drop-in replacement without modification to the MIG gun.
- 4-piece pack (SKU 60170): Provides multiple replacement tips in a single purchase, reducing downtime from unplanned tip changes during extended welding operations.
- Broad cross-brand compatibility: Fits Forney 304, 306, and 308 MIG welders as well as Tweco, Binzel, and Clarke MIG guns, reducing the need to stock multiple tip part numbers.
Applications
- Replacement contact tip for Forney 304, 306, and 308 MIG welders during routine maintenance or after tip wear.
- Direct-fit replacement for Tweco, Binzel, and Clarke MIG gun platforms using the same standard tip geometry.
- Suitable for MIG welding operations using 0.0230.024 in. diameter wire where consistent electrical contact between wire and gun is required.
