High-durability welding contact tip | Alpha Tip Standard Type
The welding wire is in contact with the inner hole of the contact tip to supply electricity, but because the contact point is constantly changing as the wire is supplied to the base material, the power required for welding tends to be unstable.
Another problem was that continuous use of regular contact tips caused the wire hole at the tip to wear out, causing arc fluctuations.
Alpha Tip was developed by our company to solve the many problems that existed with conventional contact tips.
A special spring built into the Alpha Tip presses the wire so that it is constantly fed along the inner hole to the base material, making it possible to generate a very stable arc while maintaining a constant power.
Even if the tip wire hole expands, the pressure of the special spring keeps the power supply point constant and minimizes vibration, resulting in 3 to 7 times greater durability than conventional standard tips.*1
By extending the replacement cycle for contact tips, waste material generation can be reduced, reducing consumable costs and achieving ISO14001 certification, and our proprietary Alpha Tip solves previously unattainable problems such as environmental friendliness.
Suitable wire diameters range from Φ0.9 to Φ1.4, and tip lengths of 40L and 45L are available.

Precautions for use
The α-Tip integrated and separate adapters have a special spring built in, so please check the following points.
- Adjust the pressure of the wire feeder to be slightly stronger.
- Use with torches 4m or less…Standard feed motor specifications
However, if a long torch feeder is used, it can also be used with 6m torches. - Please clean the coil liner, etc., as dirt may cause poor feeding.
