I went to Home Depot and bought new Lincoln tips. Only to find when I got home the thread diameter is smaller than my machine. Anyone know where I can find these old style tips?

I went to local welding shop and they said I needed buy all new hose torch setup.
The SP-100 tips have a thread that is 6mm. x1 dia.

Notice that your machine is set up for gas.
Suspect that it was converted to gas from flux and non Lincoln components were used.
This is the standard SP-100 wand.
