948163 - ESAB PT-15/17/19 High Voltage Cable Assembly - 50 ft

Industrial Grade High Voltage Replacement Cable

The ESAB 948163 is a specialized High Voltage Cable Assembly designed for heavy-duty industrial plasma cutting applications. Engineered to meet the rigorous specifications of ESAB's legacy high-performance torches, this component is critical for the safe and efficient transfer of high-voltage electrical current required for arc initiation and maintenance in plasma systems. Specifically compatible with the PT-15, PT-17, and PT-19 series torches, this cable ensures that your equipment operates within its designed electrical parameters, minimizing the risk of arcing faults or voltage drops that can compromise cut quality.

Constructed with industrial-grade insulation materials, the cable is built to withstand the harsh environments typical of metal fabrication shops, shipyards, and manufacturing facilities. The outer jacket offers superior resistance to abrasion, oil, grease, and incidental contact with hot metal, protecting the conductive core and ensuring operator safety. At 50 feet (15.2 meters) in length, this assembly provides substantial operational flexibility, allowing operators to maneuver around large assemblies or structural components without the constant need to reposition the primary power supply unit.

Maintenance of the high-voltage circuit is paramount in plasma cutting systems. A compromised cable can lead to inconsistent pilot arc starting, misfires, or dangerous electrical leakage. Replacing worn or damaged cables with genuine OEM parts like the ESAB 948163 guarantees correct connector fitment and dielectric strength. This direct replacement part eliminates the guesswork associated with generic alternatives, ensuring that the impedance and voltage ratings match the power source requirements perfectly. It is an essential spare part for maintenance departments managing older ESAB mechanized or manual plasma cutting stations.
