OVERVIEW

Technical Overview of the ESAB 0458629885 Cable Set

The ESAB 0458629885 is a complete welding cable kit designed for light-to-medium duty manual metal arc (MMA) welding applications. This set is engineered to provide reliable power transmission from the power source to the workpiece, minimizing voltage drop and ensuring a stable arc. The kit features high-quality multi-strand copper conductors with a cross-sectional area of 16 mm², which balances current carrying capacity with exceptional flexibility.

Each cable in the set measures 3 meters (approximately 10 feet) in length, offering a practical working radius for benchtop welding or localized maintenance tasks. The cables are sheathed in durable, heat-resistant rubber insulation that withstands the rigors of industrial environments, including exposure to sparks, abrasion, and oil. The set includes both the welding lead (fitted with a fully insulated electrode holder, typically the Handy 200 model or equivalent) and the return lead (fitted with a robust earth clamp).

A key feature of this cable set is the inclusion of OKC 50 connectors. These bayonet-style connectors (compatible with standard Dinse 50 sockets) ensure a quick, positive lock into the welding machine, preventing accidental disconnection and overheating due to loose contacts. This specific SKU is the standard accessory kit for many of ESAB's portable inverter machines, such as the Caddy Arc, Buddy Arc, and Rogue series, making it an essential replacement or upgrade for users of these power sources.

FAQ

Both the electrode cable and the return (ground) cable are 3 meters (approximately 10 feet) long.

The cables are fitted with OKC 50 connectors, which are compatible with standard 50mm² Dinse-style sockets commonly found on many inverters.

The cable has a cross-sectional area of 16 mm².

Yes, if your Rogue model uses the larger OKC 50 sockets (common on most models), this kit is a direct fit.

Yes, it includes a fully assembled electrode holder on one cable and a ground clamp on the other.

16mm² cables are typically rated for around 150 Amps at reasonable duty cycles. For sustained high-amperage welding above 200A, heavier cable is recommended.

ESAB typically uses high-quality rubber insulation for better flexibility and heat resistance compared to standard PVC.
