Submerged Arc Welding Contact Tips
High-performance contact tips engineered for the demanding requirements of submerged arc welding. Deliver reliable current transfer and consistent wire feeding for heavy-duty industrial applications.
Engineered for High-Amperage Performance
Submerged arc welding demands contact tips that can handle extreme currents while maintaining reliable wire feeding and consistent arc characteristics. Our SAW contact tips are specifically designed to meet these challenges, providing superior performance in the most demanding heavy fabrication environments.
Manufactured from carefully selected copper alloys with optimized conductivity and wear resistance, these tips deliver thousands of meters of reliable wire feeding before replacement. The precision-machined bore ensures smooth wire passage while maintaining the electrical contact necessary for stable arc performance.
Available in all standard wire sizes and thread configurations, our SAW contact tips are compatible with equipment from all major manufacturers. Custom designs are also available for specialized applications.
