Review on WeldingCity Lincoln Welding Electrode 45-40-15-0.045 by Dan Barrett

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Works, but not quite right.

Works but not quite right. I just installed this in my Lincoln weld pack and it didn't quite match the old part. The brass fitting at the end of the welder is shorter than that on the shank. Therefore, when you try to tighten the set screw, it is actually trying to push the sleeve fitting out. I solved this problem by tightening it with my finger, but not enough to push the fitting out. The entire description of this item says it's made for a 100 liter flashgun, but it's easy to get it to work. I'm giving it 3 stars because I've been able to get it to work and want to find it. Deducting 2 stars because I just couldn't use it. Instead I had to play around with it and come up with my own solution.

Pros
  • Tools and household goods
Cons
  • Very expensive
