0700300490 - ESAB RT 62W-L Water-Cooled Straight Torch Neck

ESAB RT 62W-L 0-Degree Torch Neck Overview

The ESAB Torch Neck RT 62W-L 0DEG (Part Number: 0700300490) is a specialized component designed for high-performance industrial welding environments. Engineered specifically for the ESAB RT series of MIG/MAG torches, this replacement swan neck features a water-cooled design capable of handling the thermal stresses associated with high-amperage welding. The "62W" designation indicates its robust water-cooling capacity, ensuring the contact tip and nozzle remain at optimal operating temperatures to prevent overheating and extend consumable life.

One of the defining features of this model is its 0-degree angle. Unlike standard 45-degree or 60-degree curved necks, this straight neck provides a linear path for the welding wire. This geometry is particularly advantageous in automated or robotic setups where precise vertical alignment is required, or in manual applications where deep, straight-line access into narrow gaps or pipe interiors is necessary. The straight design also minimizes friction on the wire liner, potentially improving feedability for stiffer wires.

Constructed with high-quality materials, the RT 62W-L neck ensures excellent electrical conductivity and structural integrity. It integrates seamlessly with ESAB's gas distribution systems to provide smooth laminar flow shielding, critical for defect-free welds. Whether you are maintaining a robotic cell or a heavy-duty manual station, using genuine ESAB parts guarantees compatibility and reliability.
