If you are looking for new contact tips for your welder, be aware there are many different kinds! Some fit multiple machines, but many don’t.

For example I have a Hobart 185 which is made by Miller but doesn’t use the Miller tips, only Hobart specific tips.

To make it even more confusing, I have replaced the gun assembly with an aftermarket unit that takes TWECO parts.
Here is the replacement gun I used on my Hobart when mine wore out (it works great and takes the more common TWECO style consumables): https://amzn.to/3SOHpcf
