OVERVIEW

Reliable Grounding with the ESAB Work Clamp

The ESAB Work Clamp (951680) is an essential accessory for professional welders who demand consistency and safety in their welding operations. A welding circuit is only as strong as its weakest link, and often, that link is the ground connection. This high-quality work clamp is designed to provide a secure, low-resistance connection to your workpiece, ensuring that the full power of your machine reaches the arc.

Manufactured by ESAB, a global leader in welding and cutting equipment, this clamp features a robust design capable of withstanding the rigors of daily industrial use. Whether you are working in a fabrication shop, on a construction site, or in a garage, a solid ground is critical for preventing arc wander, sputtering, and cold welds. The 951680 model utilizes a strong spring mechanism (or screw-type action depending on the specific sub-variant) to bite through rust, paint, and scale, establishing a clean electrical path.

Why Choose an ESAB Ground Clamp?

Cheap or worn-out ground clamps can cause significant heat buildup, which not only damages the clamp and cable but can also pose a safety hazard. The ESAB Work Clamp is engineered with high-conductivity materials at the contact points to minimize resistance. This efficiency translates to a smoother welding arc and better bead appearance. It is an ideal replacement for damaged OEM clamps or as an upgrade for entry-level equipment.

At Josef Gas, we understand that downtime is costly. That is why we stock reliable components like the ESAB 951680 to keep your operations running smoothly. Compatible with various welding processes including MIG, TIG, and Stick, this clamp is a versatile addition to your welding toolkit.

FAQ

It completes the electrical circuit for arc welding by connecting the ground cable to the workpiece, ensuring current flows back to the machine.

A hot ground clamp usually indicates a loose connection or high resistance. Ensure the clamp jaws are clean and gripping bare metal, not paint or rust.

Yes, the ESAB 951680 is suitable for all standard arc welding processes, including MIG, TIG, and Stick.

The cable is typically attached via a lug and bolt connection or a set screw mechanism, depending on the specific terminal design of the clamp.

Yes, as long as the welding cable size matches the clamp's connector, it can be used with any brand of welding machine.

Poor grounding causes arc wandering, sputtering, difficult arc starts, and can even damage the welding machine's internal components.

No, this SKU is typically for the clamp assembly only. Welding cable must be purchased separately.

While specific ratings can vary by exact sub-model, ESAB work clamps of this style are generally rated for industrial use, often between 300A and 500A.
