Genuine ESAB Capacitor Foam Replacement

Maintain the integrity and reliability of your ESAB welding equipment with the ESAB Capacitor Foam (Part Number: 0446174001). This is a genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) component designed specifically for ESAB power sources. Inside a welding machine, large capacitors store significant energy and are critical for smooth arc performance. However, these components can be heavy and susceptible to movement caused by the vibrations of the machine or during transport.

This specialized foam insert serves a dual purpose: it acts as a secure mounting aid to keep the capacitor firmly in place, and it provides essential vibration dampening. Over time, the original foam in a machine can degrade due to heat and age, potentially allowing components to shift. A shifting capacitor can lead to broken solder joints, disconnected wires, or even short circuits that could damage the main control board. Replacing the foam during maintenance intervals or when swapping out capacitors is a small investment that protects the expensive internal electronics of your welder.

Trust Josef Gas for your authentic ESAB repair parts. Whether you are performing routine maintenance or a critical repair, using the correct mounting foam ensures your machine meets factory specifications for safety and durability.
