262982 - Miller Brass Twist Lock Panel Receptacle - Female

Genuine Miller OEM Replacement Receptacle

The Miller 262982 is a high-quality, genuine OEM replacement receptacle designed for specific Miller welding power sources. This component serves as the critical interface between the welding machine and the welding cables, ensuring the safe and efficient transfer of high-amperage welding current. Engineered with precision, this receptacle features a female twist-lock mechanism that provides a positive mechanical and electrical connection, significantly reducing the risk of accidental disconnection during operation.

Constructed from high-grade brass, the 262982 receptacle offers superior electrical conductivity. Brass is the material of choice for this application due to its excellent balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and ability to handle thermal cycling without degrading. In high-amperage welding applications, resistance at the connection point can lead to dangerous heat buildup, voltage drop, and poor arc performance. By utilizing this genuine Miller part, operators ensure that the full power of the machine reaches the workpiece, maintaining the arc characteristics intended by the manufacturer.

This unit is designed for panel mounting, fitting securely into the chassis of compatible Miller welders. The panel mount design includes necessary insulation to prevent shorting to the machine case, ensuring operator safety and equipment longevity. Whether replacing a damaged port due to wear and tear or performing routine maintenance on a fleet of industrial welders, the Miller 262982 ensures that the equipment remains compliant with original factory specifications.

Maintenance professionals and industrial electricians prefer OEM parts like the 262982 because they eliminate the guesswork associated with aftermarket components. The dimensions, thread pitch, and locking geometry are exact matches for the original equipment, ensuring a hassle-free installation process. This part is essential for maintaining the reliability of your welding operations, preventing downtime caused by faulty cable connections.
