200 A Clamp-Style Electrode Holder
This clamp-style electrode holder is rated for 200 A and suited to stick welding (SMAW) tasks. It accepts cable up to 2/0 gauge and connects via a ball-point screw socket measuring 5/32 in. The jaw is made from copper alloy for reliable electrical contact. Medium-duty rating makes it appropriate for general workshop and maintenance use.
Medium Duty Cycle and Jaw Limits
Medium duty rating means the holder is designed for intermittent welding rather than continuous high-amperage runs. At the full 200 A rating the duty cycle will be limited, so extended beads require cooling pauses. The copper-alloy jaws grip standard electrodes but may wear faster under heavy daily use. Cable connection is fixed to the ball-point screw type.
Cable Capacity and Worksite Fit
The 2/0 gauge capacity provides headroom for typical stick welding leads up to the rated current. Heavier cable or sustained output above 200 A exceeds the design envelope and risks overheating. At 13.9 oz the holder remains light enough for extended hand-held operation. Not suited for processes requiring higher continuous duty cycles or specialised jaw geometries.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 200 A clamp-style or a lighter-duty model?
This holder is rated for 200 A maximum current with a medium-duty rating, so choose it when your arc welder runs near that amperage; lighter jobs can use a lower-rated clamp.
What does the 200 A rating mean when I’m actually stick welding?
It means the copper-alloy jaws can carry up to 200 A continuously during SMAW without overheating, provided the cable and connections are also sized for that current.
How does the ball-point screw cable connection affect what I can run?
The ball-point screw accepts 2/0 gauge cable and a 5/32 in socket, capping the practical amperage to the 200 A rating of the holder itself.
