The ESAB 598922 Conduit ST-16 is a specialized component designed to maintain the integrity of your welding wire feed system. Engineered for industrial environments where reliability is non-negotiable, this conduit serves as the critical pathway for welding wires ranging from 1/16-inch to 7/64-inch in diameter. Its robust construction is specifically tailored to handle the increased rigidity and friction associated with larger diameter solid and flux-cored wires, ensuring that your automated or manual welding processes run without interruption.
With a length of 10 feet, this ST-16 series conduit is ideal for standard MIG gun assemblies or short-distance transfer from bulk packs to feeders. The internal geometry is precision-wound to minimize contact surface area, thereby significantly reducing the coefficient of friction. This reduction in drag is essential for preventing feed motor burnout and eliminating the erratic wire speeds that lead to poor weld quality. For maintenance and repair operations (MRO), replacing worn or kinked conduits with genuine ESAB parts restores factory-level performance to your equipment.
Installation is straightforward, designed to fit seamlessly into compatible ESAB and Tweco-style equipment. The outer jacket provides necessary rigidity to prevent collapsing while remaining flexible enough to maneuver around the shop floor. Whether you are running mild steel, stainless, or hardfacing wires, the ESAB 598922 ensures that the wire is delivered to the contact tip with precision and consistency.
