Red Head Series Weld Heads

Magnatech Redheads are designed to make pipe-to-pipe and pipe-to-fitting welds with precision and repeatability. Redheads can be used for fusion welding, or with filler wire addition – an integral head mounted feeder is standard on all models. Three models cover the size range of 12.7 to 168 mm (0.5 to 6.625�) OD. Digital technology forever eliminates the need for periodic calibration – rotation and wire speed remain accurate regardless of wear, and heads can be interchanged without time-consuming recalibration.

Description

TORCH ROTATION

Uniform torch rotation is ensured by a chain and sprocket drive using a precision stainless steel bearing assembly that is immune to heat.

MOUNTING The Weld Head mounts entirely on one side of the joint, allowing use on pipe-to- pipe and pipe-to-fitting welds.

CLAMPING MICROMETER FINE ADJUSTMENT ON CLAMP Provides rapid Adjustment for Pipe O.D. Variation

ENGRAVED SCALE CLAMP ADJUSTMENT FOR PIPE O.D. (METRIC OR INCH)
