Selecting the Right Shape of MIG Welding Nozzle
There are several shapes of MIG welding nozzles available, including straight, bottleneck and short or long taper nozzles. Straight nozzles typically have larger inside diameters but don’t offer as good of joint access. If greater joint access is critical, bottleneck nozzles, which are particularly good for automated welding applications, are a better option.
Short and long taper nozzles are also common choices for gaining good joint access. Note, that long taper nozzles may collect spatter more easily due to a smaller inside diameter. Short taper nozzle can help prevent such a problem.
When selecting a nozzle, finding one that provides the best joint access for the application is most important. It is also imperative to avoid contaminants from affecting the gas flow to the weld puddle. The best choice is to use as large of a nozzle as possible that still allows access to the weld joint. Doing so helps ensure the greatest shielding gas flow. Larger nozzles are also less prone to collecting spatter compared to those with smaller inside diameters.
