OVERVIEW

Upgrade Your Welding Leads with ESAB Quality

Welders know that a bad connection can ruin a good weld—and a good day. The ESAB OKC Female Cable Connector (often referred to as the OKC 95) is built to keep your arc stable and your leads secure. This female socket is designed to attach to your welding cable, allowing you to quickly connect and disconnect from your machine or extend your leads with a male connector. It is rated for 3/0 AWG (70-95 mm²) cables, handling the high amperage required for structural and heavy fabrication work without breaking a sweat.

Built for the Shop Floor

Cheap plastic connectors crack and fail when dragged across concrete floors or exposed to sparks. ESAB uses a tough, flexible rubber boot for this connector, providing superior impact resistance and electrical insulation. The rubber material also provides a good grip, making it easy to twist and lock the connector even when wearing welding gloves. The connection itself uses a proven twist-lock system that wipes the contact surface clean as you connect it, ensuring optimal current flow every time.

Key Benefits for Welders

  • Universal Fit: Compatible with standard OKC and DINSE-style male plugs found on most modern welding machines.
  • Cool Operation: Tight, high-contact connection reduces resistance, keeping the connector cool and preventing energy loss.
  • Easy Maintenance: Simple grub-screw or sleeve assembly makes field repairs quick and hassle-free.

Don't let a loose or burnt-out connector slow you down. Equip your cables with the ESAB OKC Female Connector for a professional-grade link between your power source and your work.
