282082 - Miller 282082 Twist Lock Brass Power/Gas Receptacle with Ring

Genuine Miller Replacement Power and Gas Receptacle

The Miller 282082 Rcpt, Tw Lk Brass Power/Gas Female with Ring is an essential component for maintaining the operational efficiency of your Miller welding equipment. Designed as a direct OEM replacement, this receptacle serves as the critical interface between your welding machine and the torch assembly. It is engineered to handle the dual function of transmitting high-amperage welding current and shielding gas through a single, streamlined connection point. This "gas-through" design is common in modern TIG and MIG setups, reducing cable clutter and simplifying the setup process for professional welders.

Constructed from high-grade brass, this receptacle offers excellent electrical conductivity, minimizing voltage drop at the connection point to ensure a stable and consistent arc. The brass material also provides robust resistance to corrosion and mechanical wear, which is vital for equipment used in industrial environments. The twist-lock mechanism ensures a positive, vibration-resistant connection that prevents accidental disconnections during operation. This feature is particularly important for maintaining safety and weld quality, as a loose connection can lead to arcing, overheating, or shielding gas leaks that compromise the weld pool.

Installation of the Miller 282082 is straightforward, as it is designed to fit specific Miller power sources without modification. The kit includes the necessary retaining ring to secure the receptacle firmly to the machine's front panel. By using genuine Miller parts, you ensure that your equipment retains its original performance specifications and safety ratings. Whether you are repairing a damaged terminal or performing preventative maintenance on your fleet of welders, this brass power/gas female receptacle provides the reliability and durability expected from Miller Electric products.

Regular inspection of your welding machine's output terminals is recommended. If you notice signs of pitting, heat discoloration, or thread damage, replacing the receptacle with the Miller 282082 can restore your machine's performance. Trust in OEM components to deliver the precise fit and long-lasting service life required for heavy-duty welding applications.
