264099 - Miller Strain Relief Bushing .450-.709 ID for 1.068 Hole

Secure Your Connections with the Miller 264099 Strain Relief Bushing

The Miller 264099 Bushing is a critical component designed to maintain the structural and electrical integrity of your welding equipment. As a genuine Miller Electric replacement part, this strain relief bushing is engineered to exact specifications, ensuring a perfect fit for compatible machines. Its primary function is to anchor the power cord or welding cable as it passes through the machine's chassis, absorbing the mechanical stress associated with pulling, pushing, and twisting. Without a functioning strain relief bushing, these forces are transferred directly to the delicate internal wiring connections, leading to potential short circuits, arc faults, or complete equipment failure.

This specific bushing is designed to fit a mounting hole diameter of 1.068 inches, a standard size for many industrial chassis configurations. It accommodates cables with an inner diameter (ID) ranging from .450 to .709 inches, making it versatile for various gauge power cords used in welding applications. The stepped or flexible design allows it to grip the cable firmly without damaging the insulation, providing a secure seal that also helps prevent dust and debris from entering the machine cabinet.

When repairing or refurbishing welding power sources, using OEM parts like the Miller 264099 is essential for safety and compliance. Makeshift solutions or incorrect sizing can result in loose cables that pose significant safety hazards in an industrial environment. Whether you are replacing a cracked, brittle, or missing bushing, this part restores the original factory protection to your equipment. It is constructed from high-quality, durable materials capable of withstanding the heat and rigors of a welding shop environment.

Installation is straightforward, typically requiring the bushing to be snapped or compressed into the chassis wall around the cable. By ensuring your power cords are properly relieved of strain, you extend the life of your welding machine and ensure consistent, safe operation. Trust in genuine Miller parts to keep your shop running smoothly.
