OVERVIEW

Restore Your MIG Gun with the ESAB 36455 Handle Kit

Don't let a cracked or broken handle slow down your welding projects. The ESAB 36455 Handle Kit is the perfect solution for welders looking to repair their equipment without breaking the bank. Welding guns take a beating—they get dropped, dragged, and exposed to extreme heat every day. Eventually, the plastic handle shell can crack or break, making the gun uncomfortable to hold and potentially unsafe to use. Instead of buying a brand-new gun, you can simply replace the handle and get back to work in minutes.

This kit comes with everything you need to replace the outer shell of your compatible ESAB or Tweco MIG gun. It includes the durable plastic handle halves and the screws required to secure them together. The material is tough and heat-resistant, designed to stand up to the sparks and spatter of the shop floor. Once installed, the handle feels solid and secure, restoring the original balance and grip of your torch. A good grip is crucial for laying down consistent beads, and this replacement part ensures you have the control you need.

Why replace your handle?

  • Safety: A cracked handle can expose live electrical connections or gas lines.
  • Comfort: A loose or broken grip causes hand strain and makes it harder to maneuver the torch.
  • Cost Savings: Repairing your gun is significantly cheaper than replacing the entire unit.

Installation is easy and can be done with a standard screwdriver. Simply disassemble the old handle, transfer the trigger and cable assembly into the new shell, and screw it shut. It’s a quick fix that makes a big difference in your daily welding comfort. Keep your gear in top shape and extend the life of your trusty MIG gun with this genuine ESAB replacement part.
