Reboot Welding Electrode Holder Twist Type 400AMP Full Copper Heavy Duty Electrode Clamp Accessories for Welding Machine ARC MMA Welder

This is a robust electrode holder. The connection method is very simple. The spring pressure allows the holder to grip the electrode securely.

This welding handle is a bit different. you twist the head to loosen and tighten the rods. There is no spring to wear out, and this is more solid than the spring type, so it holds the rods better. It is a bit harder to get used to if you have used the spring clip type, but it works better. it arrived timely, and the price was not too high. I'm very satisfied with it.

Good enough quality for DIY guys but would never stand up to all day use.

The welding clamp is an essential tool for my husband, since he is a welder. This new tool is just what he was looking for, since the electrodes used define the amount of amperage, which are 500A, which are the most used in his daily work. Excellent, very functional tool. I recommend it.

I waited a couple days of use before putting out a review. Shipped to my house next day with prime membership. When I opened it I noticed that the head was a 2 piece assembly. I thought that it wouldn’t hold up long, needless to say it’s held up quite well for the first job I’ve put it through. Running constant 150 amps through this stinger welding a bunch of half inch plate for a winch mount for the car trailer, and this thing hasn’t let me down. The wire is held inside the collar by not one but two set screws. The cavity is a little over an inch to allow a good bit of wire through for that extra bit of comfort in the back of your mind. I am running #2 wire without an issue. The handle took a bit of time getting used to but not long at all, just a few welds. So far so good. And for the price it’s well worth it. I recommend this stinger and have no doubt that if I have an issue customer service will take care of it without an issue.

I bought the 300 amp a year ago. I tend to burn the rods down to 1/2 inch long and have burnt out a couple of the 300 amp stingers. This 500 amp is heavier duty, heavy spring, a little harder to squeeze. I does clamp much better. NO slop in the clamp of the two jaws. Should hold the rod much tighter.

It's a great twist style stinger for its price but definitely not durable, when in use for industrial environments. I use 3/16 rod and above and I did notice that the insulation is prone to cracking after long use. I did use it non stop for 3 days, 10 hours each and it break and stop holding the rod, I can see that it would be great to buy if your a hobbist welder or interested this particular style as it's cheap. I would definitely invest in a more quality product some where else if using a industrial setting or consistent use.

Great
