OVERVIEW

Restore Precision Control with the ESAB 10.0K Linear Potentiometer

When your welding equipment's control dials become erratic or unresponsive, it can severely impact the quality of your work. The ESAB 10.0K Linear Potentiometer (SKU: 13731305) is a genuine OEM replacement part designed to restore the smooth, accurate adjustment capabilities of your ESAB welding machine. Whether you are adjusting wire feed speed, voltage, or amperage, a functioning potentiometer is critical for dialing in the perfect weld settings.

Over time, potentiometers can wear out due to dust ingress, mechanical fatigue, or frequent use in harsh industrial environments. Symptoms of a failing potentiometer include "dead spots" where the machine output drops, jumping values when turning the knob, or a complete inability to adjust settings. Replacing a worn unit with this high-quality ESAB component ensures that your machine operates exactly as the manufacturer intended.

This specific component features a 10,000 Ohm (10k) resistance with a linear taper. A linear taper means that the resistance changes at a constant rate as you turn the shaft, providing intuitive and predictable control over your machine's output. Because it is an authentic ESAB part, you can trust the fitment and electrical specifications to match your equipment perfectly, eliminating the guesswork often associated with generic electronic components.

At Josef Gas, we understand that downtime costs money. Keeping essential repair parts like this potentiometer on hand—or being able to source them quickly—is vital for maintaining productivity in your shop. This part is compatible with various ESAB power sources and wire feeders. Please verify your machine's parts manual to ensure compatibility with part number 13731305 before ordering.

FAQ

This potentiometer has a resistance of 10.0 kΩ (10,000 Ohms).

This is a linear taper potentiometer, meaning the resistance changes uniformly as you turn the shaft.

Typically, this part number refers to the potentiometer component itself. You will usually need to reuse your existing knob or purchase one separately.

Signs of failure include 'dead spots' where the machine output drops to zero, erratic jumps in settings when turning the knob, or physical damage to the shaft.

While electrically similar, generic parts may not fit the mounting hole, shaft size, or circuit board connector. Using the OEM part ensures proper mechanical fit and reliability.

This is an ESAB OEM part used in various power sources and wire feeders. Please check your specific machine's parts manual for SKU 13731305 to confirm compatibility.

Depending on the specific machine model, this potentiometer may require soldering wires to the terminals or it may connect via a plug. Check your existing part configuration.

'LIN' stands for Linear, indicating the type of resistance taper the potentiometer uses.
