BERNARD 1590 Contact Tips

Bernard 1590 contact tips – Parweld 1590

Keep your high-duty MIG welding operations running smoothly with the Bernard 1590 1.2 mm Long Contact Tip — the ideal spare for 200–300 A and 400 A MIG torches requiring extended reach. Crafted specifically for long-head assemblies, this contact tip offers precise wire guidance and superior electrical conductivity for 1.2 mm diameter mig wire.

In busy fabrication environments and production lines, downtime caused by poor feed, tip burn-back, or erratic arcs can impact productivity. By installing the Bernard 1590 contact tip from Parweld designed for long-head applications, you’ll benefit from:

• Enhanced feed performance: The tip’s extended length ensures the wire remains well-centred within the nozzle, reducing drag, snagging or misfeed.

• Improved arc stability: Reliable electrical contact means fewer arc interruptions and smoother welds.

• Simplified maintenance: A standard replacement part with a clear stock code helps maintain consistency in consumables across your torch fleet.

Key Features

• Genuine Bernard consumable designed for use with 200–300 A & 400 A MIG torches.

• Long-length version ensures better penetration into long-head torch necks — minimising spatter and enhancing feed reliability.

Installation & Maintenance Tip

Ensure the liner inside the torch neck is clear and suitable for the 1.2mm wire range. Pair the tip with the correct Bernard diffuser and nozzle bore size to avoid excessive spatter or heat build-up. Replace the tip when you observe signs of wear — e.g., increased arc instability, tip burn-back, or damage to the tip face.

This Bernard 1590 contact tip is manufactured as a high-quality by Parweld and is fully compatible with Bernard Style MIG torches. It offers the same fit, thread profile and performance characteristics, ensuring seamless integration into any system designed for 1590-style long contact tips.
