Essential welding accessories
To become a great welder, one needs a combination of skills, experience, and top-notch equipment. While we can provide valuable tips and insights to enhance your welding skills on our blog, our expertise truly shines when it comes to helping you understand the significance of welding equipment and tools we offer in-store. In this guide, we will explore our welding accessories and how they can benefit you.
1. Welding Pliers
Welding pliers are versatile tools that are essential for any professional welder. These pliers serve multiple purposes, making them indispensable in your workshop. If you ever need to adjust your welding nozzle while it’s still hot, welding pliers are your go-to tool. Additionally, they double as wire cutters, providing you with a two-in-one solution. Welding pliers are also handy for removing spatter from the inside of the nozzle. In short, these tools are a must-have for any welding workspace.
2. Welding Chemicals
If you frequently encounter splatter issues during your welding projects, it may be due to improper shielding gas pressure settings for the specific gas and environment you’re working in. While mastering gas regulation is essential, welding chemicals can also come to your rescue. We offer a choice of anti-splatter spray or paste to combat splatter problems. Many welders use these anti-spatter chemicals not only on their workpieces but also on their welding torches to prevent spatter build-up. By using anti-spatter spray on your torch, you can achieve better welding results.
3. Welding Regulators
Our MIG Welding Regulator is designed to control the flow of shielding gas to ensure precise and safe welding. We supply MIG welding gas and TIG welding gas for your torches, but without a properly functioning welding regulator, your welding outcomes may not meet your expectations, and you could even jeopardize your safety. It’s crucial to select a regulator that provides the appropriate gas pressure for your workpiece and the gas you’re using. For instance, Acetylene can become explosive if it’s compressed excessively, so you need a regulator that allows for a controlled flow of gas suitable for different materials.
4. Welding Fume Extraction Equipment
Safety should always be a top priority for welders, especially concerning exposure to noxious welding fumes. We recommend our Safety Helmets, which not only protect your eyesight but also purify the air you breathe. These helmets are battery-powered, eliminating the hassle of dealing with wires while welding, and their filters are easily replaceable, ensuring a secure and long-term investment in your health and safety. For additional safety equipment, such as clothing, gloves, and goggles, please explore our welding safety equipment page.
5. Gas Trolley
Avoid the risk of back strain by using our gas cylinder handling equipment instead of attempting to carry heavy gas canisters to your workstation. We offer both small and large sizes to accommodate the needs of your business.
6. Ready to Go Welding Sets
If you find yourself overwhelmed by the multitude of welding accessory options, you might be interested in our convenient sets. These sets contain all the essential equipment you need, and we currently offer two types: the Oxy Acetylene Welding Set and the Oxygen Propane Welding Kit. Your choice may depend on your preferred gas mix and your existing workshop setup. These sets are particularly helpful for start-ups and hobbyists, making it easier for you to select the ideal accessories for your welding needs.
