13735631 - ESAB OKC 600A Cable Socket Connector for 2/0-3/0 Cable

High-Performance Power Transmission for Industrial Welding

The ESAB 0160361882 Cable Socket is a premium-grade electrical connector designed to facilitate secure and efficient power transfer in heavy-duty welding environments. Engineered to handle amperages up to 600A, this component is critical for maintaining arc stability and minimizing voltage drop across long cable runs. It is specifically sized to accommodate welding cables ranging from 2/0 AWG to 3/0 AWG, making it a versatile solution for medium to heavy industrial fabrication setups.

Constructed from high-conductivity brass, the core of the socket ensures minimal electrical resistance, which is vital for preventing energy loss and localized heating. The exterior is protected by a robust, high-dielectric rubber sleeve that provides excellent insulation properties. This housing is formulated to withstand the harsh conditions typical of industrial sites, including exposure to welding spatter, oil, grease, and ozone. The mechanical design features a positive locking system that ensures the mating plug remains securely engaged during operation, preventing accidental disconnections that could lead to arcing or safety hazards.

For procurement specialists and facility managers, the ESAB 0160361882 represents a reliable maintenance component that extends the lifecycle of welding assets. Proper cable management using high-quality connectors like this reduces downtime associated with cable failures and equipment overheating. It is fully compatible with standard mating plugs in the ESAB OKC range and similar industry-standard connectors, allowing for seamless integration into existing fleets of welding power sources and secondary cables.
