18702 - ESAB 50mm Plastic Replacement Gauge Lens 2353517

Maintain Equipment Integrity with Genuine ESAB Parts

In the industrial maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) sector, the longevity and safety of gas regulation equipment are paramount. The ESAB 50mm Plastic Gauge Crystal (Part Number 2353517) is a critical replacement component designed to restore the functionality of damaged or aged pressure gauges. Over time, gauge lenses can become scratched, clouded, or cracked due to the harsh environments typical of welding and fabrication shops. A compromised lens not only obscures critical pressure readings but also exposes the delicate internal mechanism of the gauge to dust, moisture, and debris, potentially leading to equipment failure.

This replacement crystal is manufactured to ESAB's strict OEM specifications, ensuring a precise fit for 50mm gauges commonly found on ESAB regulators and flowmeters. Unlike generic alternatives, this part guarantees that the snap-fit or bezel retention mechanism works correctly, providing a secure seal against the elements. The use of high-quality plastic offers a balance of optical clarity and impact resistance, reducing the risk of shattering that can occur with glass lenses in dynamic industrial environments.

Procuring the correct spare parts is essential for minimizing downtime. By replacing a damaged crystal rather than the entire gauge assembly, facility managers can effect cost-efficient repairs that extend the service life of expensive gas control assets. This component is an essential stock item for any maintenance department overseeing welding stations, ensuring that safety protocols regarding pressure monitoring are always met with clear, legible instrumentation.
