Electrode Holders
Electrode, or stick holders are an essential part of any welding kit. They are used to hold the welding electrode in place and conduct the welding current to the electrode. There are many different types of electrode holders available, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.
Some of the most common types of electrode holders include:
- Clamp-style electrode holders are the most basic type of electrode holder. They are easy to use and relatively inexpensive. However, they can be difficult to hold onto if they are used for heavy-duty welding.
- Twist-style electrode holders are more advanced than clamp-style electrode holders. They have a twist-release mechanism that makes it easy to change electrodes. They are also more comfortable to hold, making them ideal for long welding sessions.
- High-current electrode holders are designed for welding with high-amperage electrodes. They have a larger contact area than other types of electrode holders, which helps to prevent arc blow.
