OVERVIEW

Restore Your Remote Control Functionality

Keep your welding operations running smoothly with the ESAB 997758 5-Pin Male Plug, a premium replacement connector for welding machine accessories. In TIG and advanced MIG welding, the reliability of your remote controls—whether they are hand switches mounted on the torch or foot pedals on the floor—is paramount. A loose or damaged connector can lead to arc stuttering, failure to initiate, or erratic amperage control. This 5-pin male plug is the standard replacement for many ESAB hand switches, restoring your equipment to factory-level performance.

This connector is engineered for the harsh reality of welding environments. It features a tough outer shell that resists impact, dust, and grime. The 5-pin configuration is keyed to ensure correct orientation, preventing damage to the pins during insertion. The screw-on locking ring ensures a tight, vibration-resistant seal against the machine's receptacle, which is crucial when working around heavy machinery or moving the power source frequently. The internal terminals are designed for secure soldering, allowing for a permanent and conductive bond with your control cable wires.

Don't let a broken plug halt your production. The ESAB 997758 is an exact fit for compatible ESAB equipment, eliminating the guesswork associated with generic universal connectors. It comes complete with the necessary housing and strain relief components to assemble a professional-grade connection. Ideal for maintenance departments and welding repair shops, this plug is a vital spare part to keep on hand for quick fixes to TIG torch switches and remote control cables.
