Andy I got the new tapered nozzle, 11/32"part # 178386. When installed the contact tip is .150 inch recessed. Is there a contact tip by Miller or others that is longer to get me 1/4 to 3/8 inch stick out? The factory nozzle of 1/2 inch holds the contact tip flush.This is for the M-25 gun on the 251 welder using .023inch wire. The contact tip must be .400 to .525 inch longer, I don't want to shorten the nozzle as the diameter will increase. The thread on the contact tip is 1/4-28, last resort is to machine custom tips.Any ideas? Thanks, Carl W. .......=o&o>............

What are you asking?
Your contact tip does not have to be sticking out of the nozzle.
As long as it is not too far back inside the nozzle you should be fine and not have problems welding. -
Your stick out is not determined by how far the contact tip sticks out of the nozzle. It is the distance the wire is sticking out of contact tip while welding. Am I right?Comment

Yes, IMO. Carl, I don't understand why you want tip stick-out. Is it to get into narrow spaces?Originally posted by ascwldr24
