OVERVIEW

Get Back to Work with the ESAB 950913 Replacement Switch

Don't let a small electrical failure stop your production line. The ESAB 950913 Paddle Switch is the direct replacement part you need to fix broken or intermittent controls on your ESAB welding equipment. When a switch fails, it can be frustrating—machines won't turn on, modes won't change, or remote controls stop responding. This genuine ESAB part is designed to get your gear back up and running with the same reliability and performance you expect from the original factory build.

This switch utilizes a DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) configuration. For the welder, this means the switch can handle two different circuits at once, a common requirement for switching between different weld modes or control settings. It features a 2-position action, giving you a solid "click" so you know exactly what setting you are on, even in a noisy shop environment. The paddle actuator is a standout feature; unlike small toggle batons that can be hard to flip with thick MIG or TIG gloves, the wide paddle offers a larger surface area, making it easy to flip on or off without removing your safety gear.

Specs That Match Your Machine

Using the wrong electrical parts can be dangerous or damage your expensive welder. The ESAB 950913 is rated for 4A at 125V, ensuring it can safely handle the control currents of your machine. It comes equipped with screw terminals for wiring. This is a huge plus for DIY repair and maintenance because it allows for a tight, secure connection using just a screwdriver—no soldering iron required in many cases. This secure connection style is vital for equipment that gets dragged around the shop or loaded onto trucks, as it resists loosening from vibration.

Whether you are repairing a foot pedal, a remote amperage control, or a main panel switch, using genuine ESAB parts ensures the fit is perfect. There is no need to file down the mounting hole or crimp new connectors to make a generic switch fit. Simply disconnect the old unit, screw your wires into the new 950913, and mount it back in place. Keep your downtime to a minimum and trust in the durability of OEM components to keep your arc burning.

FAQ

DPDT stands for Double Pole Double Throw. It means the switch has two separate circuits (poles) that can each be connected to one of two terminals (throws). This allows it to control two different functions simultaneously.

This switch is rated for 4 Amps at 125 Volts AC. It is designed for control circuits and should not be used for high-amperage main power switching exceeding these limits.

The switch features screw terminals (SCR). You simply strip the wire end, insert it under the screw head or clamping plate, and tighten the screw to secure the connection.

The description '2POS' (2 Position) typically indicates a maintained switch, meaning it stays in the position you flip it to (like a light switch), rather than springing back.

Technically yes, you can use just one side of a DPDT switch to function as a Single Pole switch, but you should ensure the physical dimensions and amperage ratings match your original part.

Yes, the internal SKU ESB950913 indicates this is a genuine ESAB replacement component.

Typically, you will need a screwdriver to open the machine panel and a small screwdriver (flathead or Phillips) to secure the wires to the switch terminals.

Paddle switches have a wider actuator surface, making them easier to operate quickly and easier to use while wearing protective welding gloves.
