2218717 - ESAB PSF 405/505 Gas Nozzle Seat

Industrial Grade Replacement for ESAB PSF Systems

The ESAB 2218717 Nozzle Socket is a critical component designed for the maintenance and repair of ESAB PSF 405 and PSF 505 MIG welding guns. In high-volume industrial fabrication environments, the integrity of welding torch consumables is paramount to maintaining production schedules and quality standards. This nozzle socket serves as the foundational interface between the torch neck and the gas nozzle, ensuring that shielding gas is directed precisely over the weld pool without turbulence or leakage.

Manufactured to ESAB's rigorous OEM specifications, this part guarantees a precise fit that aftermarket alternatives often fail to replicate. Using genuine parts like the 2218717 reduces the frequency of downtime caused by loose nozzles or poor electrical isolation. For procurement managers and maintenance teams, stocking this specific nozzle socket ensures that the PSF series torches—workhorses in heavy industry—remain operational. The component is engineered from high-quality materials capable of withstanding the intense heat cycles associated with high-amperage MIG welding, thereby extending the service life of the torch front-end assembly.

Proper inventory management of consumables such as this nozzle socket allows for rapid turnaround during equipment servicing. When a nozzle socket threads become stripped or damaged due to spatter buildup and thermal expansion, immediate replacement is necessary to prevent damage to the more expensive swan neck. This product provides a cost-effective solution to extend the lifecycle of your existing welding assets while maintaining the high performance expected from ESAB equipment.
