Contact Tip M6 0,9MM Mig Welding

The M6 0.9mm Contact Tip is a high-conductivity welding consumable engineered for the South African light-industrial, DIY, and automotive sectors. Designed for use with standard 15AK and 25AK MIG torches, it is the primary choice for operators using 0.9mm solid or flux-cored wire—the ideal "middle-ground" wire size for welding everything from 2.0mm security tubing to medium-gauge plate. This tip ensures a concentrated electrical arc and smooth wire travel, which is essential for maintaining weld integrity and reducing post-weld cleanup.

Key Performance Features

• High-Purity E-Cu (Electrolytic Copper): Manufactured from premium copper to provide maximum electrical conductivity and rapid heat dissipation, preventing the wire from "seizing" during long weld runs.
• Precision 0.9mm Calibrated Bore: Specifically engineered to allow for the thermal expansion of 0.9mm wire while maintaining constant electrical contact for a stable, flicker-free arc.
• Standard M6 Threaded Base: Features the industry-standard 6mm metric thread, ensuring 100% compatibility with all major South African MIG torch brands (Binzel-style 14AK, 15AK, and 24KD).
• Anti-Friction Internal Finish: The internal bore is polished to a high mirror finish to minimize wire-drag, significantly reducing the risk of "bird-nesting" at the feeder rolls.

Ideal Applications

• General Security Fabrication: The preferred tip for welding palisade fencing, heavy-duty burglar bars, and security gates using 0.9mm ER70S-6 wire.
• Trailer & Agricultural Repair: Perfect for repairing light-to-medium duty trailers, cattle kraals, and farm implements where a slightly heavier bead than 0.8mm is required.
• Automotive Chassis Work: Ideal for structural repairs on bakkie frames and suspension mounts where consistent penetration is critical.
• DIY & Workshop Projects: A reliable and affordable consumable for home workshop users performing a wide variety of mild steel fabrication and repairs.

Product Benefits

• Stable Arc Ignition: By ensuring a consistent electrical pick-up point, this tip minimizes arc-stutter and produces a smoother, more manageable weld pool.
• Optimized Shielding Gas Flow: The slim M6 profile is designed to work in harmony with the gas shroud, allowing for maximum gas coverage and reducing the risk of porosity.
• Cost-Effective Maintenance: Available in high-volume packs, allowing for quick and easy replacement to maintain peak welding performance on a daily basis.

Pro Tip: To maximize the life of your 0.9mm tip, always use MIG Anti-Spatter Spray or Gel to prevent molten droplets from clogging the orifice. If you notice your arc becoming unstable or "wandering," check the exit hole of the tip; if it has become "egg-shaped" due to wear, replace it immediately to restore your weld quality and prevent excessive spatter.
