36459 - ESAB Potentiometer and Control Knob Replacement Kit

Restore Precision with the ESAB 36459 Potentiometer & Knob Kit

Maintaining the accuracy of your welding equipment is critical for achieving consistent, high-quality welds. The ESAB 36459 Potentiometer & Knob Kit is a genuine OEM replacement assembly designed to restore full functionality to your ESAB welding machine's control panel. Over time, potentiometers—the internal components responsible for adjusting variable settings like voltage, amperage, or wire feed speed—can wear out due to dust ingress, mechanical fatigue, or electrical drift. This can lead to erratic machine behavior, where settings jump unexpectedly or fail to hold steady. Similarly, the external control knobs can become cracked, loose, or stripped in rugged industrial environments, making it difficult to make fine adjustments.

This comprehensive kit addresses both issues simultaneously. By replacing the potentiometer, you ensure that the electrical resistance values sent to the machine's control board are accurate and linear. By replacing the knob, you restore the tactile feedback and grip necessary for operators to dial in precise parameters, even while wearing welding gloves. Using genuine ESAB parts guarantees that the component matches the specific resistance curve and power rating required by your machine's circuitry, preventing potential damage that generic aftermarket parts might cause.
