21588 - ESAB 25ft Rubber Water Hose Assembly for TIG Torches

Technical Overview of the ESAB 21588 Water Hose Assembly

The ESAB 21588 is a specialized Water Hose Assembly designed for the rigorous demands of industrial TIG welding environments. Engineered to facilitate the efficient transfer of coolant from the water cooler to the welding torch, this assembly is a critical component for maintaining optimal operating temperatures in high-amperage applications. The hose measures 25 feet (7.6 meters) in length, providing significant reach and allowing operators to work at a distance from the power source and cooling unit without compromising flow rates.

Constructed from high-grade rubber, the hose is formulated to withstand the harsh conditions typical of welding shops, including exposure to sparks, abrasion, and incidental contact with hot surfaces. Unlike lower-quality vinyl or plastic alternatives, the rubber composition offers superior flexibility and resistance to kinking, ensuring a consistent flow of coolant. The assembly comes pre-fitted with industry-standard connections, designated in the product specifications as compatible with B/A configurations, ensuring a secure, leak-proof interface with compatible ESAB equipment and standard water-cooled torch setups.

Proper cooling is essential for preventing torch overheating, which can lead to premature failure of power cables, collets, and the torch body itself. The ESAB 21588 ensures that the thermal management system of your welding setup operates at peak efficiency. This replacement part is manufactured to ESAB's strict quality control standards, guaranteeing compatibility and performance that meets or exceeds original equipment specifications. It is an ideal solution for maintenance and repair operations looking to restore the functionality of their water-cooled TIG systems.
