36002200 - ESAB Torch Positioning Vertical Slide

Take Control of Your Automated Welds

As a welder or welding operator, you know that in automation, geometry is everything. The ESAB Vertical Slide Assembly gives you the control you need to dial in your process to perfection. When you are setting up a bug-o, a side-beam carriage, or a custom fixture, the ability to precisely adjust your torch height can make the difference between a flawless bead and a rework nightmare. This vertical slide (SKU: 36002200) is designed to give you that tactile, precise control over your vertical axis, ensuring your stick-out is exactly where it needs to be.

We've all dealt with sloppy slides that drift once the arc starts or bind up when you try to make a micro-adjustment. ESAB has engineered this assembly to solve those headaches. The movement is smooth and predictable, allowing you to make fine adjustments to your arc length or wire stick-out without fighting the equipment. This is crucial when welding sensitive alloys or when running critical code work where voltage variations caused by height changes are unacceptable. The rugged construction means it holds its zero, even when the shop floor gets rough.

This slide isn't just a piece of metal; it's your interface for quality control. By mounting your MIG gun or TIG torch to this assembly, you gain the ability to adapt to variations in part fit-up quickly. If a joint has a slight high-low or if the fixture height varies, a quick turn of the adjustment mechanism brings your torch back into the sweet spot. It is built tough to resist the heat and grime of the weld zone, so you don't have to worry about the mechanism seizing up with spatter or dust over time.

Upgrade your setup with a slide that works as hard as you do. The ESAB Vertical Slide Assembly is compatible with a wide range of holders and fixtures, making it a versatile addition to your tool crib. Whether you are running long seam welds on structural steel or precision circumferential welds on pipe, having a reliable vertical slide ensures that your focus stays on the puddle and the parameters, not on fighting a loose torch mount. Trust ESAB to provide the stability your automated welding demands.
