OVERVIEW

Reliable Power Connection for Industrial Welding

The Dinse Style 35-50 Male Cable Connector is an essential accessory for professional welders, specifically designed to interface with machines like the Crossfire SDW-210E. This connector facilitates a secure, low-resistance link between your welding power source and the welding cables, ensuring that the full amperage of your machine reaches the arc without significant voltage drop. Built to the international Dinse 35-50 standard, this plug is compatible with a wide array of European and North American welding power sources that utilize the 1/2-inch (approx. 13mm) pin diameter twist-lock receptacles.

Robust Construction and Safety

Manufactured from high-grade brass, the core of this connector provides excellent electrical conductivity, which is critical for maintaining arc stability and preventing overheating at the connection point. The brass body is encased in a tough, flexible rubber insulator that withstands the rigors of the shop floor, including impact, abrasion, and exposure to sparks. This insulation not only protects the connector physically but also ensures operator safety by shielding live electrical components. The design effectively prevents accidental arcing against the machine case or other grounded surfaces.

Easy Installation and Maintenance

Installing the Dinse 35-50 plug is a straightforward process that requires minimal tools. The connector utilizes a mechanical set-screw (grub screw) system to clamp down on the stripped copper cable strands. This eliminates the need for soldering, allowing for quick field repairs or cable replacements. The connector is sized to accept welding cables ranging from 35mm² to 50mm² (approximately #2 to 1/0 AWG), making it versatile for various amperage requirements up to approximately 300 amps. Whether you are building new leads or replacing a damaged plug, this kit provides all the necessary components for a professional-grade connection.

Compatibility and Versatility

While explicitly listed for the Crossfire SDW-210E, the utility of this plug extends to any welding machine equipped with 35-50 female panel sockets. Its quick-connect twist-lock mechanism allows welders to rapidly switch between different lead lengths or polarities, enhancing productivity in dynamic work environments. The positive locking action resists loosening from cable twisting or vibration, ensuring a consistent connection throughout the welding operation.

FAQ

This connector is designed for cables ranging from 35mm² to 50mm², which corresponds roughly to American Wire Gauge (AWG) sizes #2, #1, and 1/0.

This is a male connector (plug) designed to fit into the female panel sockets found on the front of welding machines.

Yes, this plug is specifically compatible with the Crossfire SDW-210E and other welders that use the Dinse 35-50 standard.

The connector uses a mechanical set screw (Allen/hex screw). You strip the cable insulation, insert the copper strands into the brass body, and tighten the screw securely. No soldering is required.

The numbers refer to the cable cross-section range in square millimeters. Physically, the 35-50 plug has a larger pin diameter (approx. 13mm) compared to the 10-25 plug (approx. 9mm). They are not interchangeable.

Yes, this plug is used for both positive and negative leads. You will typically need two plugs if you are building a complete set of leads.

Yes, the kit comes complete with the brass connector body and the protective rubber insulating sleeve.

While ratings can vary slightly by specific use case, Dinse 35-50 connectors are generally rated for welding currents up to approximately 300 amps at a reasonable duty cycle.
