951109 - 12-Pin Universal Mate-N-Lok Cap Housing - White

Precision Electrical Component for Industrial Equipment

The ESAB 951109 Housing Univ Cap 12 Pos Wht is a critical spare part designed for the maintenance and repair of ESAB welding power sources and wire feeders. As a 12-position universal cap housing, this component serves as the insulating shell for electrical connections within the machine's internal wiring harness. Manufactured from high-grade, durable white nylon, it provides essential protection against electrical arcing and short circuits while ensuring wires remain organized and securely connected.

This housing features a positive locking mechanism typical of Universal Mate-N-Lok style connectors, which is vital in the high-vibration environment of industrial welding. The latch ensures that the mating plug does not disconnect accidentally during machine operation or transport. The 12-position configuration allows for the transmission of multiple control signals or power lines through a single interface, streamlining the internal layout of the equipment.

Technicians repairing ESAB equipment rely on genuine OEM parts like the 951109 to maintain the factory safety ratings and reliability of the machine. Using generic or ill-fitting connectors can lead to intermittent faults, increased resistance, or heat buildup at the connection point. This housing is supplied as the plastic shell only; crimp terminals (pins or sockets) are typically sold separately or reused if undamaged during the repair process.

Whether you are troubleshooting a control board failure, replacing a damaged wire harness, or performing a complete refurbishment of an older power source, this housing ensures that your electrical connections are restored to their original specification. Its robust design resists thermal cycling and mechanical stress, providing a long service life even in demanding workshop conditions.
