OVERVIEW

Keep Your Arc Smooth with ESAB Contact Sockets

Every welder knows that the contact tip is where the rubber meets the road—or rather, where the power meets the wire. The ESAB Contact Socket 5000R is built to handle the heat and keep your arc steady. When your contact tip starts to wear out, you get erratic feeding, stuttering arcs, and frustrating burnbacks. That's why having a fresh pack of these high-quality sockets on hand is a no-brainer for any serious shop.

This pack comes with 50 contact sockets, so you aren't running to the supply cabinet every other day. Whether you are running a production line or tackling a big fabrication project, these tips are designed to last and perform. They fit 5000R series equipment perfectly, screwing in securely and providing a clean path for your wire. The copper material conducts heat away from the wire, helping to prevent the wire from sticking to the tip during those long beads.

Don't let a worn-out two-dollar part ruin a thousand-dollar weld. Swap out your contact socket regularly to keep your spatter down and your beads looking slick. With this 50-pack, you can afford to change them out as soon as they show signs of wear, ensuring your machine runs like new every time you pull the trigger.

FAQ

Its primary function is to transfer the welding current from the torch to the wire electrode while guiding the wire towards the weld pool.

This package contains 50 contact sockets.

It is manufactured from a high-conductivity copper alloy designed to withstand high heat and electrical current.

Replace the socket when the bore becomes oval-shaped (keyholing), if the wire starts to snag, or if you experience erratic arc issues.

No, it is specifically designed for systems compatible with the 5000R series components. Always check your torch manual for part number verification.

Yes, a worn socket can cause poor electrical contact, leading to an unstable arc, increased spatter, and potential burnback.

Yes, provided the bore size matches the diameter of the flux-cored wire being used.

Buying in bulk is cost-effective and ensures you never run out of critical consumables during a job, minimizing downtime.
