Key Components & Benefits

1. High-Purity Graphite Molds

• Description: The heart of the exothermic welding process, our molds are precision-machined from high-density, high-purity graphite. Available in hundreds of configurations to suit virtually any conductor combination (cable-to-cable, cable-to-rod, cable-to-bar, etc.).
• Benefits:
  • Exceptional Durability: Withstand hundreds of welds, offering long-term value.
  • Precision Fit: Ensures consistent weld pool containment and perfectly formed connections.
  • Smooth Release: Designed for easy removal of the completed weld without sticking or damage.
  • Versatility: A vast selection for every conceivable grounding, bonding, or lightning protection application.

2. Heavy-Duty Handle Clamps

• Description: Robust, ergonomic clamps designed to securely hold graphite molds during the welding process. Available in various sizes to accommodate different mold dimensions.
• Benefits:
  • Secure Grip: Provides a stable and safe hold, preventing mold movement during ignition and cooling.
  • Ergonomic Design: Comfortable for prolonged use, reducing operator fatigue.
  • Quick Release: Allows for efficient mold changes and post-weld handling.
  • Long-Lasting: Constructed from heavy-gauge steel or cast iron for maximum lifespan.

3. Reliable Ignition Devices

• Description: Crucial for safely initiating the exothermic reaction.
  • Flint Igniters: Traditional, simple, and reliable mechanical igniters.
  • Electronic Igniters: Battery-operated, offering enhanced safety with extended reach and no open flame, ideal for sensitive or confined spaces.
• Benefits:
  • Safe Ignition: Designed to keep the operator at a safe distance from the reaction.
  • Consistent Spark/Charge: Ensures dependable initiation of the welding material.
  • Durability: Built to withstand demanding job site conditions.

4. Mold Cleaning Brushes & Tools

• Description: Essential for maintaining mold integrity and ensuring clean welds. Includes specialized mold brushes (soft brass or nylon) and carbon scrapers.
• Benefits:
  • Extends Mold Life: Regular cleaning prevents residue buildup that can damage the mold cavity.
  • Ensures Weld Quality: Removes contaminants that could compromise connection strength or conductivity.
  • Prevents Sticking: Keeps mold surfaces smooth for easy release of welded conductors.

5. High-Temperature Sealing Compound / Putty

• Description: A pliable, heat-resistant compound used to seal mold openings, especially around irregularly shaped conductors or worn mold edges.
• Benefits:
  • Prevents Leakage: Contains the molten weld metal, preventing spills and ensuring a complete connection.
  • Forms a Tight Seal: Adapts to conductor shapes, compensating for minor gaps.
  • High Thermal Resistance: Withstands extreme temperatures without degrading.

6. Conductor Cleaning Brushes

• Description: Wire brushes (steel or brass) specifically designed to prepare conductors by removing rust, oxides, dirt, and moisture prior to welding.
• Benefits:
  • Optimal Electrical Contact: Ensures the purest metal-to-metal contact for a strong, low-resistance connection.
  • Enhanced Weld Strength: Clean surfaces allow for a proper molecular bond.
  • Crucial for Quality: A fundamental step for every successful exothermic weld.

7. Exothermic Welding Kits & Carry Cases

• Description: Conveniently packaged kits containing a selection of essential accessories (e.g., specific molds, handle clamp, igniter, cleaning tools, putty) within a durable, portable case.
• Benefits:
  • Portability & Organization: Keeps all necessary tools together and easily transportable.
  • Cost-Effective: Often offers better value than purchasing individual components.
  • Job-Specific: Kits tailored for common applications (e.g., grounding, lightning protection).
