OVERVIEW

Genuine ESAB Replacement Part for Automation

The ESAB 0413511001 is a specialized Bent Contact Tube (D20) engineered specifically for use with ESAB's renowned A2 and A6 automatic welding heads. As a critical component in automated welding systems, this contact tube plays a vital role in transferring welding current to the wire while guiding it precisely into the weld joint. Manufactured to ESAB's exacting standards, this OEM part ensures seamless compatibility and restores the original performance specifications of your heavy-duty welding equipment.

In industrial environments where A2 and A6 tractors or heads are utilized—often for Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) or heavy-duty GMAW—reliability is paramount. Using genuine ESAB consumables like the 0413511001 contact tube minimizes the risk of arc instability, wire feed issues, and premature component failure. The "D20" designation refers to the tube's specific diameter sizing, ensuring a perfect fit within the torch assembly or straightener unit of the welding head. Its bent design is intentional, allowing operators to direct the wire at specific angles required for certain joint configurations or multi-pass welding sequences.

Procuring the correct spare parts for automation equipment is essential for maintaining production schedules. This contact tube is constructed from high-grade copper alloy, selected for its superior electrical conductivity and thermal properties. By maintaining efficient current transfer, it helps produce consistent, high-quality welds that meet rigorous industrial codes. Whether you are maintaining a fleet of A2 Multitracs or A6 Mastertracs, keeping a stock of these specific contact tubes ensures that your maintenance team can address wear and tear immediately, reducing costly downtime.

This product is supplied as a single unit. Please verify your equipment's parts manual to confirm that part number 0413511001 matches your specific torch setup, as ESAB offers various contact tube geometries for different wire diameters and welding applications.

FAQ

This contact tube is designed specifically for ESAB A2 and A6 automatic welding heads.

D20 refers to the outer diameter or mounting size of the tube, which is 20mm, ensuring it fits the specific jaw or holder on the A2/A6 equipment.

The bent design allows for better wire positioning and access into specific joint configurations, such as fillets or deep grooves, which might be difficult with a straight tube.

Yes, the ESAB A2 and A6 heads are commonly used for SAW, and this contact tube is built to handle the high currents associated with that process.

It is manufactured from a high-conductivity copper alloy designed to withstand high heat and electrical current.

Replacement frequency depends on amperage and duty cycle. Inspect the tip regularly for keyholing (wear at the exit) or spatter buildup, and replace it if arc stability degrades.

Yes, this is a genuine ESAB part with the internal SKU ESB0413511001.

Yes, if your A2/A6 head is set up for GMAW (MIG/MAG), this contact tube can be used provided it matches your wire size and torch setup.
