OVERVIEW

Genuine ESAB Central Adaptor Assembly for Industrial Wire Feeders

The ESAB Central Adaptor Assembly (Part Number 23610696) is a critical component designed to maintain the operational integrity of your ESAB wire feeding systems. In the demanding environment of industrial welding, the connection point between the power source and the welding torch is subject to significant mechanical stress, thermal cycling, and electrical load. This genuine ESAB assembly serves as the interface block, commonly known as a Euro connector, which allows for the transmission of welding current, shielding gas, and control signals to the MIG gun.

Constructed with high-grade materials, including precision-machined brass components, this adaptor ensures low-resistance electrical contact. Poor contact at the feeder connection is a common cause of voltage drop, erratic arcs, and overheating, which can damage both the torch and the machine. By installing this OEM replacement, operators can ensure optimal conductivity and stable arc performance. Furthermore, the assembly is engineered to provide a secure, leak-proof seal for shielding gas, preventing porosity in welds caused by atmospheric contamination at the connection point.

This unit is designed for compatibility with specific ESAB wire feeders that utilize the Euro-style central connection standard. It facilitates the rapid exchange of welding torches, allowing shops to switch between different gun lengths or amperages without tools. For maintenance teams and fabrication shops, keeping the central adaptor in good condition is essential for minimizing downtime and maintaining weld quality standards. Trust Josef Gas to supply authentic ESAB components that meet the original factory specifications for safety and performance.

FAQ

It serves as the connection point (Euro socket) on the wire feeder for the MIG gun, transferring current, gas, and wire.

Yes, this is the authentic ESAB part number 23610696 (often listed as 023610696).

No, it is designed specifically for ESAB wire feeders and machines that use this specific assembly configuration.

Typically, the central adapter is the connection block itself; the solenoid is usually a separate component inside the machine.

If your machine's chassis and internal plumbing support this specific ESAB part, yes, but it is primarily a replacement part.

Standard hand tools like wrenches and screwdrivers are usually sufficient to unbolt the old unit and disconnect the internal leads.

Heat usually indicates a loose connection or high resistance. Replacing the adapter assembly can resolve this issue.
