Welding Holder

Welding Holder Use

Welding holders or often referred to as wire holders are arc welding equipment that is held by the welder when welding. Welding holders are used to hold metal or carbon electrodes. The handle holder on the welding holder is made of a coating material that has high heat resistance and low electrical resistance and is made to balance the hand grip. There are a number of methods used to clamp the electrode with a welding holder, one of which is pincer and spring construction to produce pressure so that a good connection is obtained. Clean the contact area using a wire brush so that the contact area between the electrode and the electrode holder is clean. The jaws of the electrode holder should also be cleaned using sandpaper or other suitable means. Weliding electrode holder is best equipped with a shield (small heat-resistant plate) to prevent radiant heat from being welded to the welder's hands.
