WS200G10 - Tweco 200A Ground Clamp & Cable Assembly, 10ft, 50mm Dinse

Tweco WS200G10 Ground Clamp & Cable Assembly Overview

The Tweco WS200G10 is a premium pre-assembled grounding solution designed to facilitate optimal electrical conductivity in welding circuits. Rated for 200 Amperes at a 100% duty cycle, this assembly is engineered to withstand continuous industrial operation without overheating. The core of this assembly is the genuine Tweco 200 Amp copper ground clamp. Unlike stamped steel alternatives, the copper construction ensures superior current transfer and thermal management, minimizing resistance at the contact point with the workpiece. High contact resistance is a common cause of arc instability and poor weld quality; this high-grade clamp mitigates those issues effectively.

Connected to the clamp is a 10-foot length of #2 AWG welding cable. The cable features a durable neoprene jacket, providing essential protection against the harsh environments typical of welding sites, including resistance to oil, grease, heat, and abrasion. The flexibility of the #2 gauge wire allows for easy maneuvering around the shop floor or workbench while maintaining sufficient cross-sectional area to carry the full 200A load without excessive voltage drop.

The assembly is terminated with a 50mm male Dinse connector (often referred to as a Dinse-style plug). This international standard connector allows for a quick, twist-lock connection that is secure and highly conductive. While specifically listed as a direct replacement or accessory for the ESAB Rogue ES 180i and Ruffian ES 150 engine-driven welders, the standard 50mm Dinse termination makes this lead compatible with a vast array of modern welding power sources that utilize female 50mm Dinse receptacles. This universality makes the WS200G10 an excellent stock item for maintenance departments servicing mixed fleets of welding equipment.

Technical specifications include a robust spring mechanism in the clamp to maintain high jaw pressure, ensuring the "bite" necessary to penetrate light rust or mill scale. The fully assembled nature of the product reduces downtime, allowing operators to replace damaged leads immediately without the need for cable stripping, lug crimping, or connector assembly tools.
