Welding Cables

Common Stressors

Welding cable is relatively sturdy by nature. Thanks to their strong construction, outdoor concerts go off without a hitch, electrical equipment is consistently powered and generators work when they are needed most. Though they are usually highly durable, even welding cables can succumb to outside stressors. These include, but are not limited to:

Water A light sprinkling his fine, but days buried in mud and stagnant water may compromise a welding cable. If you need a cable that can withstand such conditions, make sure it is correctly rated before you purchase it.

Oil It stands to reason that many welding cables will come into contact with oil. After all, oil provides the necessary lubrication for any interchangeable parts. It can also corrode a welding cable.

Rough use Welding cables are pretty tough customers. In their wide scope of use, they may be run over by monster trucks, consistently trampled or left exposed for many days. Even the toughest welding cables should be checked regularly for signs of breakdown to ensure safety.
