BETTER WELDS
START AT THE ROOT.

Keep your purge focused and your weld root supported. Find the right baffles, nylon plugs, and backing tape for your next job.

Pull-Thru Purge Baffles

Keep your purge focused on the weld. These reusable silicone baffles isolate the weld zone to reduce the volume you need to purge.

✓ Reusable silicone construction
✓ Stainless steel center mandrel
✓ Match pipe inside diameter and schedule

Nylon Tube & Pipe
Purge Plugs

Close off tube and pipe openings with expanding nylon plugs. Choose the size and stem style for your setup, including hollow-stem options for a gas inlet or vent.

✓ Durable nylon construction
✓ Solid- and hollow-stem options
✓ Match the expansion range to your pipe I.D.

Fiber Insulated
Weld Backing Tape

Give the weld puddle backing support with aluminum adhesive tape and a woven fiberglass strip. Help shape a consistent root bead and reduce cleanup on suitable applications.

✓ Heat-resistant fiberglass backing
✓ 2.5-inch and 4-inch widths
✓ 200-amp and 600-amp options
