0349302267 - ESAB Replacement Cylinder Bottle Shelf

Genuine ESAB Structural Replacement Component

The ESAB 0349302267 Bottle Shelf is a critical structural component designed specifically for the safe retention and transport of shielding gas cylinders on compatible ESAB welding power sources and carts. As a genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part, this shelf is engineered to meet the exact dimensional and load-bearing specifications of the original machine assembly. In industrial welding environments, the stability of high-pressure gas cylinders is paramount for safety; this shelf provides the necessary base support to prevent cylinder instability during the movement of the welding unit.

Constructed from durable, heavy-gauge steel, the shelf is built to withstand the significant weight of standard industrial gas bottles (such as those containing Argon, CO2, or mixed gases) as well as the mechanical stresses associated with shop floor mobility. The component features pre-drilled mounting points that align precisely with the chassis of the specific ESAB equipment it is designed for, ensuring a seamless installation process without the need for modification or fabrication. The finish is treated to resist corrosion and wear, maintaining the professional appearance and longevity of the welding system.

Failure of a bottle shelf due to impact damage, fatigue, or overloading can present serious safety hazards, including the risk of a falling cylinder which could shear the regulator or cause injury. Replacing a compromised shelf with this authentic ESAB part restores the unit's safety compliance and operational functionality. It serves as the primary load-bearing platform in the cylinder retention system, working in conjunction with safety chains or straps to keep the vessel vertical and secure. This part is identified by the SKU 0349302267 and is essential for maintenance and repair operations on specific ESAB welder models requiring a rear-mounted cylinder platform.
