Esab Miniarc ES 180i Replacement Base Chassis Plate

Restore Your Miniarc ES 180i with a New Base Plate

If your Esab Miniarc ES 180i has taken a tumble or seen too many rough job sites, the base plate is often the first thing to crack. A compromised base isn't just cosmetic; it exposes the sensitive internal electronics of your inverter welder to dust, moisture, and metal shavings from the shop floor. The Esab Base Plate (0464670002) is the direct factory replacement you need to get your machine back to 100%. Don't risk taping up a broken housing or letting your welder sit unevenly on the bench—swap out the damaged part and keep welding.

This base plate is built to the exact same standards as the one that came on your machine when it was new. Because it is a genuine Esab part, you won't have to fight with misaligned screw holes or plastic that doesn't quite snap into place. It is designed to cradle the internal components of the Miniarc 180i securely, dampening vibration and providing the sturdy foundation the machine needs. Whether you are a mobile welder tossing your gear into a truck bed or a shop fabricator moving between stations, a solid base plate is key to protecting your investment.

Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with basic tool repairs. By removing the outer shell screws, you can access the chassis, remove the old broken plate, and transfer the rubber feet and internal mounts to the new unit. It is a cost-effective way to save a perfectly good welder from the scrap heap. Keep your Miniarc running smooth and looking professional with this authentic replacement part.

Why Replace Your Base Plate?

• Protection: Seals the bottom of the unit against shop debris and moisture.
• Stability: Ensures the welder sits flat and stable on workbenches or floors.
• Internal Safety: Prevents internal components from shifting or shorting against the case.
