consumable parts for MIG/MAG and TIG torches

Country: Austria · Model: MIG/MAG, TIG consumables

Original consumable parts for MIG/MAG and TIG torches include three types of contact tips, about 300 gas nozzles, six types of wire liners and TIG accessories. Process stability and production costs depend on them, because the parts work in heat, spatter and under constant abrasion by the wire. The tips, nozzles, liners and special shapes are developed in Austria.

MIG/MAG: contact tips E-Cu, CuCrZr, WQ; about 300 gas nozzles; 6 types of liners (steel, CrNi, Teflon, graphite, bronze)
TIG: gas nozzles (including “champagne” and narrow ones), gas lenses, meshes, TFC system, A and P systems
Application materials: steel, CrNi, aluminium, CuSi
Development: Austria

Description

The E-Cu tip, made of pure electrolytic copper, has high electrical and thermal conductivity but softens at about 260 °C, so it is used for low currents in manual welding. CuCrZr, made of a copper–chromium–zirconium alloy, withstands up to 500 °C and works at medium and high currents in manual and robotic torches for steel, CrNi, aluminium and CuSi. The WQ has a tungsten-copper core in a CuCrZr body for severe conditions, and the Contec for aluminium and CuSi gives 100 % constant contact and an unchanging TCP point. Insulated nozzles for steel and CrNi are cleaned with a reamer or a magnetic pulse, and coated nozzles for aluminium and CuSi with a brush. Liners come in uncoated and coated steel, CrNi, Teflon, graphite and bronze, and for aluminium there are also gas distributors.

How to choose

The tip type is chosen by current and welding method: E-Cu for manual work at low currents, CuCrZr for medium and high currents, WQ for severe duty. The liner is selected to suit the wire material from six types or a combination of them. In TIG, the A system with a push-on nozzle is convenient where nozzles are changed often, and the P system with a screw-on nozzle gives maximum stability.

FAQ

Which contact tip should be chosen for robotic welding of aluminium?

For aluminium and CuSi the manufacturer offers the special Contec tip. For medium and high currents in robotic torches, CuCrZr, which withstands up to 500 °C, is also suitable.

Which TIG gas nozzle shape should be chosen?

The “champagne” nozzle gives even gas distribution, and the “champagne glass” gives a better view of the welding point. There are also narrow and standard nozzles and nozzles for spot welding.

What are the gas lens and gas mesh for in a TIG torch?

The gas lens forms a laminar flow of shielding gas, and the mesh protects the lens itself. Torch caps come in different lengths, and tungsten electrodes with different alloying additions.

How many MIG/MAG gas nozzles are in the range?

About 300, including narrow ones for better access, reinforced Heavy Duty ones and coated nozzles for aluminium.
