Weld Force Gauges

First step of Resistance Welding Quality Assurance is validating your weld force is correct!

Problems caused by incorrect weld force:

 

If Weld Force is Too Low…

  • Expulsion at Weld Interface
  • Surface Expulsion/Electrode Sticking
  • Low Weld Strength
  • Internal Cracks in Weld Nugget

If Weld Force is Too High…

  • Excessive Weld Indentation
  • Cracks in Parent Material

What is incorrect force costing you every day?

Tuffaloy supplies a range of weld force gauges to fit your needs. All gauges come with a Certificate of Calibration.

We offer:

  • Hydraulic Analog Gauges with 2-3% accuracy
  • Digital-Electronic Gauges (DLC) with 0.5% accuracy
  • Weld Through Digital Probes with 0.5% accuracy

All gauges can be returned to Tuffaloy for calibration, repairs if needed and NIST certification.
