950964 - ESAB 22-20 AWG Crimp Contact Socket for Control Cables

Restore Your Welder's Control Cables

Don't let a loose wire or a damaged connector pin stop your production. The ESAB 950964 Contact Socket is the exact replacement part you need to fix broken or corroded connections in your welding equipment's control cables. Sized for 22-20 AWG wire, this contact socket is the standard female terminal used in many of the multi-pin plugs and receptacles found on ESAB welders and wire feeders. When a cable gets yanked or a pin gets bent, replacing the individual contact is far more cost-effective than replacing the entire cable assembly.

This part is designed for professional repair. It requires a suitable crimping tool to attach securely to the wire, ensuring a mechanical bond that won't pull out under tension. Once crimped, the socket snaps into the connector housing, providing a fresh, clean contact surface for your electrical signals. Keeping a supply of these contact sockets on hand is a smart move for any shop that performs its own equipment maintenance, ensuring you can quickly address connectivity issues and get back to welding.

Why Choose OEM Replacement Contacts?

Using the correct contact socket is vital for preventing electrical resistance buildup, which can cause heat and signal degradation. The ESAB 950964 is manufactured to precise specifications to match the housing and mating pins of your equipment. This ensures:

• Proper Alignment: The socket sits correctly in the connector housing.
• Secure Locking: Retention barbs (if applicable to the specific housing) engage correctly to prevent push-back.
• Optimal Conductivity: High-quality materials ensure signals pass through without interference.

Whether you are fixing a remote control cord or a complex automation harness, trust genuine ESAB parts for a lasting repair.
