635850 - ESAB Stainless Steel Ring Terminal 16-14 AWG 1/4-Inch Stud (Reel of 2500)

Durable Repair Parts for Welding Equipment

When repairing welding power sources, wire feeders, or water coolers, the quality of your electrical connections dictates the reliability of the repair. The ESAB 635850 Ring Terminal offers a robust solution for technicians and welders who demand longevity from their equipment. Unlike standard automotive-grade terminals, these stainless steel lugs are built to endure the harsh realities of a welding environment. The stainless steel material provides superior hardness and resistance to environmental factors, ensuring that your ground connections and control signals remain stable over time.

This product features a 0.250-inch (1/4") ring eyelet, a common size for grounding studs and terminal strips inside welding machines. It accepts wire gauges ranging from 16 to 14 AWG, covering the majority of internal control wiring and lighter power leads. The terminals come on a reel of 2500, making this an excellent investment for repair shops that service fleets of machines. Having a bulk supply on hand means you are always ready to replace a corroded connector or fabricate a new wiring harness without waiting for parts delivery.

Proper electrical termination is critical for safety and performance. These ring terminals are designed to provide a solid mechanical bond when crimped with the appropriate tooling. The stainless steel material, while harder than copper, offers excellent conductivity for control circuits and ensures that the terminal does not deform or loosen easily under thermal cycling. This is particularly important in welding machines where internal temperatures can fluctuate significantly. By using OEM-quality parts like the ESAB 635850, you ensure that your repairs meet the original specifications of the equipment.

Why Choose Stainless Steel Terminals?

• Longevity: Resists rust and oxidation better than standard tin-plated copper.
• Strength: Provides a rigid connection point that withstands vibration and mechanical stress.
• Professional Finish: Ensures repairs look and perform like factory-original wiring.
