ABSTRACT:
An electric welding torch adapted to hold an electrode comprises a helically fluted tube made of flexible material and adapted to surround a portion of the electrode inserted in the tube. Means is provided for mounting the tube in the torch and permitting relative rotation of displaced portions of the tube along the electrode for selectively holding the electrode in the tube by physical engagement of helical land portions of the tube against the surface of the electrode and for releasing the electrode by twisting of the tube in a direction opposite that of the spiral flutes or by application of axial compression of the tube.
