Strong Hand Tools®, manufacturer of Strong Hand Tools® Welding Clamps, and BuildPro® Welding Tables, proudly introduces the New Universal Flange and Pipe Fixture. This fixture will enable fabricators to reduce setup time in flange + pipe joining, and increase weld quality for greater repeatability.
Flanges [diameter range: 3” – 18.3”, Hole Count: 4 – 16], can be accurately located, and securely clamped, to the Universal Flange Fixture Plate in setup for flange + pipe joining.
Two Guide Blocks, set as required for each specific flange diameter and hole pattern, hold the flange against the Fixture Plate, and expand symmetrically to accurately locate the flange. Pins in the two Guide Blocks provide easy flange loading. The patent-pending Fixture Plate provides full welding clearance, and allows easy removal of the finished weldment.
The fixture is strong and rigid, to withstand cumulative stresses resulting from welding, and holds the joined flange & pipe during cool down to prevent distortion, expansion, and contraction. Load the flange & pipe, accurately position, and unload quickly for quality welds, maximum productivity, and repeatability.
Multiple Universal Flange & Pipe Fixtures can be used for T-Pipe setups. View the how-to video on the Strong Hand Tools YouTube channel.
