OVERVIEW

Precision Stainless Steel Replacement Component

The ESAB 53A61 is a high-precision replacement ball designed for specific maintenance applications within ESAB welding equipment and industrial systems. Measuring 0.250 inches (1/4 inch) in diameter, this component is manufactured from premium stainless steel, offering excellent resistance to oxidation, corrosion, and wear. In industrial environments where equipment is exposed to moisture, shielding gases, or mechanical friction, the material properties of this ball ensure long-term reliability and consistent performance.

This component is typically utilized in critical assemblies such as gas flowmeters (acting as the float indicator), check valves (preventing backflow), or mechanical detent systems (providing tactile clicks or tension). The precise spherical geometry and surface finish are essential for maintaining the correct flow rates or mechanical action intended by the original equipment manufacturer. Using non-OEM substitutes with incorrect weight or dimensional tolerances can lead to inaccurate gas readings or mechanical slippage.

Maintenance professionals understand that even the smallest components play a vital role in the overall functionality of complex welding systems. The ESAB 53A61 is engineered to meet strict tolerance standards, ensuring a perfect fit without the need for modification. Whether you are rebuilding a wire feeder mechanism, servicing a regulator, or repairing a torch assembly, this genuine ESAB part restores your equipment to its optimal operating condition.

FAQ

The ball has a diameter of 0.250 inches, which is equivalent to 1/4 inch.

It is made from stainless steel to prevent corrosion and ensure durability.

Yes, this is a genuine ESAB replacement part, ensuring compatibility with their equipment.

If your flowmeter specifies a 0.250" stainless steel ball, this is the correct replacement. The material density is critical for accurate readings.

No, because it is made of stainless steel, it is highly resistant to rust and corrosion compared to standard carbon steel balls.

This is a general spare part used in various ESAB assemblies, including regulators, wire feeders, and valves. Check your equipment's parts diagram for the part number 53A61.

This item is typically sold individually unless otherwise specified in the packaging quantity.

Yes, 0.250" (1/4") is a standard size, but this specific SKU is sourced from ESAB to guarantee material quality for welding applications.
