0558101808 - ESAB Replacement Left Side Housing Panel for Caddy Series

Restore Machine Integrity with Genuine ESAB Parts

The ESAB Side Panel Left (SKU: 0558101808) is a critical replacement component designed to restore the structural and protective housing of select ESAB welding power sources. As a genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part, this panel is engineered to the exact specifications of the original chassis, ensuring a seamless fit that maintains the equipment's mechanical rigidity and environmental resistance.

Welding environments are notoriously harsh, subjecting equipment to impact, heat, and abrasive contaminants. The external housing of a welding machine serves as the first line of defense for sensitive internal electronics, inverters, and control boards. A cracked or missing side panel compromises the machine's IP (Ingress Protection) rating, allowing conductive dust, metal shavings, and moisture to enter the high-voltage compartments. This can lead to catastrophic component failure, short circuits, and increased safety risks for the operator. Replacing a damaged panel with this specific ESAB unit (0558101808) is an essential maintenance step to prolong the service life of the power source.

This specific side panel is designed for the left-hand side of the unit (when facing the front controls). It is commonly associated with the portable ESAB Caddy series, including models such as the Caddy Arc and Caddy Tig machines. The panel is molded from high-grade, impact-resistant polymers that offer excellent thermal stability and electrical insulation properties. It features the correct ventilation louvers and mounting points required to ensure proper airflow dynamics within the machine, which is vital for the duty cycle and cooling of internal power components.

Installation of the ESAB Side Panel Left is straightforward, utilizing the existing chassis mounting points. By choosing genuine ESAB parts, maintenance professionals ensure that the machine remains compliant with safety standards and that the aesthetic condition of the fleet is maintained. This part is supplied as a single unit.
