Questions about this item

How long does the EL16T-45 tapered contact tip last under continuous welding?

The EL16T-45 tapered contact tip is a consumable welding part; its service life depends on amperage, wire feed speed and material being welded.

Does the 358-1160-1604 tip run hotter or draw more power than standard tips during all-day use?

The contact tip itself does not draw power or generate heat independently; it conducts welding current from the gun to the wire, so temperature rise follows the welding parameters you set.
