0369850880 - ESAB 500 Amp Heavy-Duty Stick Electrode Holder

Maximize Comfort and Control with the ESAB 500 Electrode Holder

For welders who spend hours under the hood, the ESAB 500 Electrode Holder offers the perfect balance of power, durability, and ergonomics. Stick welding (SMAW) at high amperages can be physically demanding, and having a stinger that feels secure and balanced in your hand makes all the difference. The ESAB 500 is designed with an ergonomic handle that fits comfortably in a gloved hand, providing excellent leverage and reducing wrist strain during long welding sessions or when welding in difficult positions.

Performance-wise, this holder is a beast. Rated for 500 Amps, it allows you to run large diameter electrodes without the tool overheating or failing. The jaw design ensures a rock-solid grip on the electrode, allowing you to manipulate the rod with precision for optimal bead placement. Unlike cheaper holders that lose their spring tension or clamping force over time, the ESAB 500 is built to last, maintaining its grip strength through thousands of rod changes. This reliability translates to less downtime and better welds.

Safety is also a top priority. The fully insulated body prevents accidental arcing if the holder touches the workpiece, protecting both the welder and the base material from damage. The cable connection is robust and easy to secure, ensuring that all the power from your machine reaches the arc. Whether you are working in a fabrication shop, on a construction site, or in a maintenance bay, the ESAB 500 Electrode Holder is the dependable partner you need for heavy-duty stick welding.
