Why should I Replace The Ground Clamp on my TITANIUM Easy-Flux 125 Welder with $8 BERGER 300 Clamp

@Squishey replacing Ground Clamp on TITANIUM Easy-Flux 125 Amp Welder with $8 BERGER 300 Amp Welding Ground Clamp a frustrated beginning welder experience

I’m a beginner and I noticed this about my ground clamp. Ground clamps that came with my welder just doesn’t work. CHICAGO ELECTRIC WELDING
Welding Cable Lugs - #2 AWG, 1/2 In. Stud, 2 Pc

This ground clamp that comes with the 125 has a weak spring, poor wire contact and poor surface contact Ground clamp conducts electricity and sucks energy at out of the weld in point. Both ends of the clamp are not very good, the wire side and the clamp side. Berger replacement so it’s no very expensive. It’s has a great contact area. A strong spring.

Using a good lug, it has better wire contact, and copper braided stunt. nice contact. See how the ground connects right to the clamp end. The amps on the welder is a max of 125 and it says 300 on the clamp, so the clamp will pass double the amount of amperage

Now I have to turn down the voltage and wire speed, it runs a lot hotter which I think is good for better weld penetration.

Let’s test it out.

I found out learning with this junk clamp was harder for me then using a good clamp. It makes learning a lot easier.
