OVERVIEW

Genuine ESAB Replacement Part

Keep your ESAB CM-79 or Ultra-Line track burner running smoothly with the 995587 Counterweight. For professional welders and fabricators who rely on portable track machines for long, straight cuts or precise beveling, equipment reliability is non-negotiable. Over time, counterweights can be misplaced during transport or site changes, leaving your machine unbalanced and difficult to use. This OEM replacement part restores the original functionality of your equipment, ensuring that your torch stays steady and your machine stays on the track.

The CM-79 and Ultra-Line machines are workhorses of the industry, often tasked with cutting thick plate where a steady hand isn't enough. However, the physics of a cantilevered torch arm means that without a counterweight, the drive wheels may lose traction on the side opposite the torch. This loss of traction causes the machine to stall or stutter, ruining the cut and wasting valuable material. The 995587 provides the necessary ballast to keep all wheels firmly planted, ensuring positive traction and consistent travel speed, which is essential for maintaining the pre-heat and cutting oxygen stream quality.

Easy Installation and Setup

Designed for quick setup, this counterweight slides easily onto the designated bar or mounting point on your ESAB machine. It allows for adjustment to accommodate different torch lengths and hose weights. Whether you are setting up for a bevel cut that places the torch far from the machine body or running a standard setup, having this counterweight available in your kit ensures you are ready for any configuration. It is a small investment that protects your larger investment in the machine and the material you are processing.

Don't let a missing part compromise your fabrication quality. The ESAB 995587 is the direct replacement specified for your Ultra-Line system, guaranteeing fitment without the need for modification. Ensure your shop is equipped with the right accessories to handle heavy-duty cutting tasks safely and efficiently.
