Backing Tape - Argweld

Designed specifically for thin gauge stainless steel welding, the Backside Support Adhesive bonds to the backside of the weld to support the first pass and the weld pool. This technique allows the argon gas emitted by the welding torch to remain around the weld pool, eliminating the need for backside inerting, while providing a consistent high quality bead profile. The aluminum tape is 75 mm wide. It has a 25 mm wide woven, heat resistant glass fiber tape in the center. The fiberglass tape is dense, weighing 1000 grams per square meter. The 80 amp tape is supplied in 25 meter rolls, and the 160 and 240 amp tape is 12.5 meters long.
