40B Shortstub®

Bernard's Shortstub® has maintained its time-tested design for decades.

Our Manual Welding Products provide high quality with a wide range of styles, sizes and capacities to enhance your welding applications.

Electrodes can be used to within one inch of the high heat, high impact head compared with the normal three inches of the electrode that is leftover when using a typical tong-type holder.

Bernard Shortstub greatly improves productivity because it is designed for quick, easy installation of electrodes and it is built to last with a proven high impact, high heat replaceable head.

Bernard Shortstub models provide long life because the replaceable head can be ordered separately and installed quickly, eliminating total replacement.

Over 2,000 pounds of gripping pressure enables the electrode to be bent to a desired shape for access to difﬁcult welds.
