01 / POSITION

Welding gap clips

Set the gap.
Position the plates.

The clips slide onto the plate edge before tack welding. Their wire diameter acts as a spacer to set the root gap between the components.

The principle: establish the gap during assembly, exactly where the welded joint will be made.
