OVERVIEW

Ultimate Power and Control

Upgrade your welding setup with the ESAB Electrode 800A, a top-tier electrode holder built for extreme performance. When your work involves heavy plate welding or aggressive gouging, standard stingers simply can't keep up. This unit is specifically rated for 800 Amps, providing the thermal capacity and electrical throughput needed for large diameter electrodes and high-duty cycle processes.

The ESAB 800A features a rugged design that prioritizes both durability and user experience. The jaws are crafted from high-conductivity alloys that ensure a low-resistance connection to the electrode, promoting easy arc starts and stable burning. The heavy-duty spring mechanism (or screw-type action, depending on specific sub-model configuration) exerts powerful clamping force, ensuring the rod stays exactly where you position it, overhead or flat.

Heat management is excellent, thanks to the specialized handle materials that resist thermal buildup. This allows welders to work longer without the discomfort of a hot handle. Installation is straightforward with a robust cable connection point designed to accept large-gauge welding cables securely. Trust ESAB's legacy of quality to keep your production line moving with this essential heavy-duty accessory.
