0701380434 - ESAB Econ 605 Heavy-Duty Stick Welding Stinger

Get a Grip on Your Welding Projects

Upgrade your stick welding setup with the ESAB Econ 605 Electrode Holder, a tough and affordable stinger built for the real world. When you are burning rods all day, you need a holder that doesn't overheat, doesn't slip, and doesn't weigh you down. ESAB has designed the Econ 605 to meet these needs, offering a practical solution for everyone from farm repair welders to heavy equipment fabricators. It’s the perfect replacement for worn-out holders or an upgrade for the cheap stingers that often come with budget welding machines.

The Econ 605 features a classic tong-style design, which is the industry standard for a reason. The spring-loaded lever makes swapping out spent electrodes quick and easy—just squeeze, drop the stub, and grab a fresh rod. The jaws are designed with multi-angle grooves, allowing you to position the electrode at 45, 90, or 180 degrees relative to the handle. This flexibility is a lifesaver when you are trying to reach a difficult joint or welding in a tight corner. The strong spring pressure ensures the rod stays exactly where you put it, so you can focus on your puddle, not on fighting your equipment.

Durability is where the Econ 605 truly shines. The outer shell is made from rugged, heat-resistant material that can take a beating. Dropping it on the concrete floor or dragging it across steel plates won't crack the handle easily. Inside, the heavy-duty components handle the electrical current efficiently, keeping the handle cooler for longer. If you are looking for a no-nonsense electrode holder that delivers professional results without the premium price tag, the ESAB Econ 605 is the tool for you.

Why Choose the Econ 605?

This stinger is all about value and reliability. It fits comfortably in a gloved hand, reducing strain during those long beads. Installation is straightforward, compatible with standard welding cable connections. Don't let a loose or overheating holder ruin your welds—grab the ESAB Econ 605 and weld with confidence.
