QT5-30 - Bernard QT5-30 Q-Gun Body Tube Assembly 30 Degree

Bernard QT5-30 Neck: Industrial Durability for Heavy Fabrication

The Bernard QT5-30 Neck is a premium replacement body tube designed specifically for the rigorous demands of industrial MIG welding. Manufactured by Bernard, a leader in welding gun technology, this 30-degree neck assembly is engineered to fit the widely used Q-Gun, S-Gun, and T-Gun series. In high-volume manufacturing and heavy fabrication environments, equipment downtime is costly. The QT5-30 ensures that your welding operations remain continuous and efficient by providing a robust, long-lasting connection between the handle and the front-end consumables.

Constructed with a focus on thermal management and structural integrity, the QT5-30 features an armored jacket that resists impact, abrasion, and the accumulation of weld spatter. This durability is essential for shops where equipment is handled roughly or exposed to extreme heat. The 30-degree bend angle is a critical specification for this model, offering a slightly straighter profile compared to standard 45-degree or 60-degree necks. This specific angle allows welders to access joints that might be difficult to reach with more curved necks, providing versatility in your welding procedure specifications (WPS).

At Josef Gas, we understand that having the right parts on the shelf is vital for maintaining production schedules. The Bernard QT5-30 is designed for quick changeovers. The body tube connects securely to the gun handle, ensuring excellent electrical conductivity and gas flow. Poor connections can lead to resistance heating and poor weld quality, but genuine Bernard parts are machined to tight tolerances to prevent these issues. Whether you are replacing a damaged neck or reconfiguring a torch for a specific job, this body tube delivers the reliability professionals expect.

Investing in genuine Bernard components like the QT5-30 protects your welding assets. Generic replacements often lack the precise internal geometry required for smooth wire feeding, leading to bird-nesting and arc instability. The QT5-30 maintains a smooth path for the welding wire, compatible with Bernard's jump liner system, to ensure consistent arc performance across various wire diameters and types.
