Platinum WC-01531 Heavy Duty 500A Welding Ground Clamp

The Platinum WC-01531 is a heavy-duty 500-amp welding ground clamp designed for high-current MIG, Stick, and TIG work. A direct cable connection eliminates the need for a cable lug—attach the lead straight to the clamp using the supplied hex wrench. A one-piece cable terminal and jaw design creates a clean, low-resistance path from the cable to the workpiece for stable arc starts and consistent grounding. Solid brass jaws bite securely onto flats, 50 mm RHS, or pipe, holding fast in shop or field conditions. Built for daily use around fabrication bays and service trucks, this clamp balances strong clamping force with efficient current transfer to help reduce heat buildup at the connection.

For crews that swap leads and move between machines, the WC-01531 keeps setup simple. The positive cable fit resists pullout under strain, while the solid brass build stands up to spatter, impacts, and frequent repositioning. Whether you’re tacking frames, repairing equipment, or running production beads, this 500A welding ground clamp delivers dependable conductivity and straightforward operation.

Markets

• Welding and Fabrication Shops Reliable ground for daily production and repair work.
• Construction and Structural Steel Stable connections on beams, railings, and site fixtures.
• Automotive Repair and Fleet Maintenance Grounds frames, brackets, and exhaust components.
• Manufacturing Consistent conductivity for assembly lines and fixture welding.
• Shipbuilding and Marine Service Secure grounding on plate, pipe, and handrails.
• Municipal & Facility Maintenance Practical clamp for multi-process welders in maintenance bays.

Professionals in fabrication, construction, and maintenance value a ground clamp that installs quickly and holds tight. The Platinum WC-01531’s direct cable connection cuts setup steps and removes the extra resistance of a lug, while the one-piece terminal design keeps current flowing straight to the work. Solid brass jaws maintain a clean electrical contact on scale, paint-free steel, or prepared surfaces, so welders see fewer arc interruptions and less rework. In mixed-process shops that jump between MIG, Stick, and TIG, the 500-amp rating offers the headroom needed for thicker material and higher duty cycles without swapping clamps.

Why Welders Choose the Platinum Heavy Duty 500A Welding Ground Clamp

Crews choose the WC-01531 because a 500A welding ground clamp with solid brass jaws delivers steady conductivity on real-world jobs. The direct cable connection removes a cable lug, reducing resistance and speeding setup on MIG, TIG, and Stick welders. Its one-piece terminal and jaw keep the current path short, which helps maintain a stable arc and reduces hot spots at the clamp. With a 50 mm clamping range, it grips plate, RHS, and pipe used across fabrication, automotive repair, and construction. The result is consistent grounding, fewer arc interruptions, and quicker changeovers between stations or machines.
