OVERVIEW

Keep Your Equipment Running Cool

Heat is the enemy of your welding gear. Whether you are pushing high amps on a TIG aluminum job or running long beads with a water-cooled MIG gun, your cooling system is the lifeline of your torch. ESAB W4001400 Welding Coolant is the premium choice for keeping that system running smoothly. Designed to replace plain water or inferior coolants, this 5-liter jug provides everything your water cooler needs to protect your investment.

Why Not Just Use Water?

Using tap water or even distilled water alone can lead to big problems over time. Water allows algae to grow, which turns into a sludge that clogs your lines and burns out your pump. It also freezes if your shop gets cold in the winter, potentially cracking your radiator or pump housing. ESAB's coolant contains special inhibitors that stop algae dead in its tracks and prevent freezing, ensuring your cooler is ready to work whenever you are.

Protect Your Torch

Automotive antifreeze is great for cars but terrible for welders because it conducts electricity. If you use it in a TIG torch, the high-frequency start can short out through the fluid, ruining your torch head and cables. ESAB W4001400 is a low-conductivity formula, meaning it keeps the electricity at the arc where it belongs, not in your cooling lines. It also lubricates the seals in your pump, making them last longer and run quieter. Simply pour it in—no mixing required—and get back to welding with confidence.

FAQ

No, this coolant is pre-mixed and ready to use. Diluting it with water will reduce its anti-corrosion and anti-freeze properties.

No. Automotive antifreeze often contains conductive additives that can cause electrical shorts in welding torches, especially during high-frequency TIG starting. It can also damage pump seals.

While specific batch ratings vary, this coolant is generally formulated to prevent freezing down to approximately -10°C to -15°C, making it safe for unheated shops in moderate climates.

It is recommended to flush and replace the coolant in your welding system once a year to ensure the corrosion inhibitors and algaecides remain effective.

Yes, ESAB coolant is compatible with most standard welding water coolers, including Miller, Lincoln, and Bernard systems, provided the system materials are compatible with glycol-based fluids.

Yes, it contains biocide additives specifically designed to prevent the growth of algae and bacteria that can clog small coolant passages.

This is a low-conductivity fluid designed specifically for welding applications to prevent high-voltage leakage.

ESAB coolants are typically clear or slightly tinted, but color does not affect performance. Always check the label to ensure it is the correct fluid for your application.
