OVERVIEW

Keep Your Cool with the Right Connections

Every welder knows that a water-cooled torch is only as good as the system feeding it. If you are dealing with a cracked, leaking, or stiff water hose, you are risking your equipment and your weld quality. The ESAB 17980 Water Hose is the heavy-duty, 2.5-foot jumper you need to get your coolant flowing smoothly again. Whether you are setting up a new water cooler or replacing an old line that's seen better days, this hose is built to handle the job.

Why choose rubber over plastic? Flexibility and durability. In a shop full of hot metal and sharp edges, you want a hose that can take a beating. This rubber hose resists melting from accidental contact with hot surfaces better than cheap vinyl lines, and it coils easily without kinking. The 2.5-foot length is perfect for those short runs between your water cooler and your machine, keeping your setup tidy and free of excess slack that can get snagged.

Installation is straightforward with the pre-crimped standard fittings. Just thread it onto your B-size water outlets, tighten it down, and you are back in business. Don't let a $20 leak cause a $500 torch failure. Swap out your worn lines with genuine ESAB parts and weld with confidence, knowing your cooling system is sealed and secure.

Key Benefits

  • Perfect Fit: 2.5ft length eliminates messy excess hose behind your cart.
