0700006883 - ESAB 200A Ground Lead Assembly with OKC 25 Connector - 16ft

High-Performance Electrical Grounding for Welding Applications

The ESAB Return Cable 200A OKC 25 (SKU: 0700006883) is a premium-grade welding cable assembly designed to establish a reliable, low-resistance electrical connection between the workpiece and the welding power source. In any arc welding process—whether SMAW, GMAW, or GTAW—the quality of the ground loop is critical for maintaining arc stability, preventing voltage drops, and ensuring consistent weld bead morphology. This assembly is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of industrial environments, providing a rated current capacity of 200 Amperes.

The assembly features a high-quality, multi-stranded copper conductor which offers superior electrical conductivity compared to aluminum alternatives. This copper core is encased in a durable, heat-resistant rubber jacket designed to withstand the harsh conditions typical of fabrication shops, including exposure to sparks, spatter, oil, and mechanical abrasion. The 16-foot (approximately 5 meters) length is optimized for standard workbench setups and medium-sized fabrication cells, minimizing excess cable clutter while providing sufficient reach.

A key technical feature of this assembly is the OKC 25 connector. This is ESAB's designation for the standard 25mm² Dinse-style quick connector, widely used across the industry for its secure locking mechanism and excellent current transfer characteristics. The connector is professionally terminated to ensure mechanical strength and electrical integrity. On the opposing end, a heavy-duty ground clamp is attached, featuring a strong spring mechanism and copper contact points to bite through minor surface rust or scale, ensuring an immediate and solid earth connection. This product is an essential component for maintaining the electrical efficiency of your welding circuit.
