950964 - ESAB 22-20 AWG Crimp Contact Socket for Control Cables

Reliable Electrical Connections for ESAB Equipment

The ESAB Contact Socket (22-20 AWG), identified by part number 950964, is a critical component for maintaining the integrity of your welding machine's electrical systems. Designed specifically for use with 22 to 20 gauge (AWG) wires, this crimp-style socket is typically utilized in multi-pin connectors found on control cables, wire feeders, and power source interfaces. In the demanding environment of industrial welding, control signals must be transmitted without interruption to ensure arc stability and precise parameter control. A compromised or corroded contact can lead to intermittent faults, machine errors, or complete signal loss.

This genuine ESAB spare part ensures that your repairs meet original equipment manufacturer (OEM) standards. Unlike generic electrical connectors that may suffer from poor tolerances or inferior conductivity, the ESAB 950964 is engineered to provide a secure, vibration-resistant connection when properly crimped. It is an essential item for maintenance departments and repair technicians tasked with troubleshooting and refurbishing welding automation equipment and manual power sources.

Technical Precision

The socket is designed to accept stripped wire ends within the 22-20 AWG range, a common size for low-voltage control wiring and sensor feedback loops. The contact geometry ensures a tight friction fit with the corresponding mating pin, maintaining low contact resistance over thousands of mating cycles. Whether you are rebuilding a damaged Amphenol connector or replacing a burnt pin in a control harness, this component restores the factory-level performance of your ESAB machinery.
