Review on Forney 56000 Electrode Holder 200 Amp by Daniel Fung

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent replacement

The Forney 56000 200Amp Electrode Holder, also known as the "Stinger", was an excellent replacement for the cheap Stinger that came on I just bought the market for a small 110 volt welder. It's much heavier and has a much better grip on the welding rods. When the bar runs out, simply squeeze the handle to release. I am very satisfied and the price is right. Whether you're replacing a broken or worn-out one, or upgrading to something better, this Stinger will meet your needs without breaking your piggy bank. If you need an amp rated over 200 amps, Forney makes a 300 amp Stinger which is very similar to the 200 amp but slightly more powerful and at a higher price point. Yes, it is made in China. Isn't that all?

Pros
  • Serrated copper jaws allow the electrodes to be used at different angles for greater comfort and efficiency
Cons
  • Doubt
