bqt2-045 - Bernard Style QT2-45 Replacement MIG Gun Neck

Precision Replacement Body Tube for Bernard Systems

The BQT2-45 Body Tube Assembly is a premium aftermarket component designed to meet or exceed the specifications of the original Bernard QT2-45 part. Engineered for professional industrial environments, this body tube serves as the critical conduit for welding current, shielding gas, and wire delivery in air-cooled MIG gun systems. It is specifically manufactured to be fully compatible with the widely used Bernard Q-Gun, S-Gun, and T-Gun series, ensuring seamless integration with existing equipment setups without the need for adapters or modifications.

Constructed from high-grade materials, the body tube features a robust outer armor that protects the internal electrical components from impact, heat, and spatter accumulation. The 45-degree bend geometry is precision-formed to maintain a consistent internal diameter, which is crucial for preventing wire drag and ensuring smooth feeding of solid and flux-cored wires. This angle is the industry standard for general fabrication, offering a balanced combination of reach and ergonomic comfort for the operator. The connection end is machined to tight tolerances to ensure a secure, low-resistance electrical connection with the gun handle, minimizing heat buildup at the joint.

Maintenance and modularity are key aspects of the Q-Gun design, and this replacement body tube supports that philosophy. It accepts standard Bernard-style consumables, including Centerfire, Quik Tip, and TOUGH LOCK systems, allowing users to maintain their preferred consumable inventory. Whether replacing a damaged neck or reconfiguring a torch for a specific application, the BQT2-45 provides reliable performance and durability. It is an essential spare part for maintenance departments looking to minimize downtime in high-volume welding operations.
