Torch Nozzle Tip Cleaners


Style A	Style B

Keep torch tips clear for a pinpoint flame.

Style A—Style A comes with 12 bits that all store inside the handle, so you always have the size you need on hand. To change the bit, twist the chuck at the tip, similar to how you would change a drill bit.

Style B—Style B has drill bit sizes stamped on the back of the case.

Welding Antispatter

Antispatter resists heat and keeps weld spatter from sticking to contact tips, nozzles, and welding accessories.

Spray On

Water Based—Water-based spray-on antispatter is nonflammable and a safer alternative to traditional oil-based antispatter.

Ceramic Based—Ceramic-based spray-on antispatter lasts up to 8 hours, so you won’t have to stop welding to reapply.

Brush On

Brush-on antispatter is a thick liquid that works in high-heat applications.

Dip In

Dip-in antispatter is applied by dunking your MIG gun nozzle into the container. It’s also known as tip dip.

Petroleum Based—Petroleum-based dip-in antispatter is good for use on hot MIG guns.

Water Based—Water-based dip-in antispatter can be used on hot or cold MIG guns. It lasts 3-4 times longer than petroleum-based dip-in antispatter.
