Review on πŸ”Œ Lincoln Electric KH520 Stick Electrode Holder: High Capacity 200 Amp (1 Pack), Black by Jeffrey Crutcher

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Garbage, not your regular Lincoln part

This stinger will not securely hold a 1/8 or 3/32 rod. They move in the teeth, and when you click the 7018 electrode after the welding is complete, the electrode comes right out of the teeth. This is because the upper jaw is flat, there is no triangular shape to pinch the electrode, the lower jaw only has teeth. When I emailed Lincoln about this and showed them the last photo in my review of what a Stinger should look like, they didn't offer a refund or any help other than "If you want better quality, try it." Purchase our [ slightly more expensive Stinger]. I think you will find it of higher quality." loser. The standard that came with my Miller is 100 times better than this one. If my employer would provide me with this, I would buy it for myself and put it to work for myself. I never expected such a useless product from Lincoln, and much more from the most useful craft. Ha ha.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Not secure
