279681 - Miller 5-Pin Remote Extension Cord 20ft

Industrial Grade Remote Extension

The Miller 279681 Control Remote Cable is a specialized accessory designed to extend the operational range of compatible welding remote controls. Engineered by Miller Electric, this 20-foot 3-inch (approximately 6.1 meters) cable assembly features a 5-pin configuration, making it essential for setups requiring distance between the operator and the power source. In industrial environments where equipment placement is dictated by floor space or safety protocols, this extension cable bridges the gap, allowing for precise amperage or voltage control from a distance.

Constructed with a robust outer jacket, the cable is built to withstand the rigors of daily use in welding shops, manufacturing plants, and field sites. The insulation protects the internal conductors from abrasion, oil, and common workshop contaminants, ensuring consistent signal transmission. Signal integrity is critical in remote control applications; a compromised cable can lead to erratic arc behavior or unresponsive controls. By using genuine OEM components like the 279681, operators ensure that the control signals sent from their hand pendant or foot pedal reach the machine accurately and without interference.

This cable is specifically terminated with 5-pin connectors, a standard interface for certain lines of Miller equipment. It functions as a direct pass-through extension, meaning it connects inline between the machine's remote receptacle and the remote control device. Maintenance personnel and facility managers appreciate the reliability of Miller's connection hardware, which is designed to resist loosening due to vibration or movement. Whether used for TIG welding precision or MIG process control, this extension adds versatility to the welding cell layout.
