Comments

sillyghillie: Garage was full of wood and flammable materials, needed to get the welder outside to do a major house project with a gate. this cord was perfect. it is very beefy and seems well built. ran my welder at 150 or so amps for hours on end without any heat in the cord.

fluknick: Needed length. Cord is stout, heavy. Never even gets warm. Has power light. Would def recommend- at least I would purchase again.

M Gray: The quality is better than I thought it would be, I gave my welding cord to a family in need to connect their live-in trailer up, this unit is to replace it, but I got surprised when I received it today and seen the quality, anyone will be pleased with this purchase.

Alexia Esco: Honestly, its feels like it does the job. It's good for now. The black plastic that covers the wires, seems to be pretty thin, I would hate to scuff it on a sharp edge as it might tear open... last thing I need is an expose electrical wire. But if youre careful with it, yes it is worth the money. I've used it for a 220v 50amp welder and plasma cutter and it does the trick! Over all great buy for 100bucks!

rdegrie: I've been impressed with the quality of the cord, and i really like the lighted feature.

Garage Mechanic: Works as it should and I have used it a few times to hook up my 240 v mig welder. Cord appears to be well made, but as for durability it will take a few years to comment as I don’t use it enough, but for my purposes should be fine.

JB: Needed to use my welder outside of my shop and this extension cord fit the bill perfectly. While it probably wouldn't stand up to heavy industrial use this cable is perfect for home use. I can also see this product being very effective for extending an RV power cord.

Andrew B.: great value for the money as it is genuine stranded copper 8guage cable with proper ends on it, however the outer sheathing is a little stiff even at above freezing temps im skeptical how itll handle a canadian winter outside, also the female plug is a really tight fit even after 20-30 uses it cant be pulled apart by hand, i have to unplug the cord and use a steel bar to pry the connection apart.. it seems to be the ground prong that gives the trouble but i dont know what a solution would be maybe some dielectric grease

HankHillsGuitar: No seriously, this thing behaves less like an extension cord and more like a garden hose full of water. Winds and unwinds nicely, wants not to kink or tangle owing to the ridiculously large wire diameter. Lighted ends are cute, why not I suppose? Not like you'd have trouble finding this thing, it's just so bloody large. Most importantly though, I couldn't find any place online or anywhere else where I could get 40' of 8/3 plus two 250V plugs for about $120 or so, which is what I paid for this. If you don't have a N6-50 receptacle, you'll need to either install one or purchase an adapter for your standard N14-50 (stove) or N14-30 (dryer) receptacles. If you find something better for less, I'd be very honestly quite surprised. Skookum AF.

Blake: It's definitely worth the money. The cord is flexible but solid. Works great. It already paid for itself in one little job. I have a 230 amp MIG Linde welder and I was able to weld 1/4" to 1/4" no problem and I would purchase this cord again. Maybe even the 100ft cord next time. Everywhere I looked people wanted over $200 for a 50 foot cord. I got a 40 foot cord for I believe was $127 and delivered right to me. Thank you 😁
