Impact Welding – Using Impact clip

 

 

Impact welding is the term used for welding wires to a 

conductive metal surface. This process is common when 

thermocouples are required to be welded to a test piece/

structure or similar application.

 

 

The impact welding clip attachment should be plugged 

into the black negative (

-

) socket on the front of the L60+ 

welder. The impact clip should then be attached in close 

proximity to where the thermocouple is required to be 

attached.

 

 

The thermocouple wires are then gripped in the holding 

pliers and pressed against the surface to which they are 

to be welded.

 

 

The weld switch or footswitch is then pressed triggering 

the L60+ welder discharge that will attach the wires to the 

applied surface. Once the thermocouple has be success-

fully welded the impact weld clip can be removed.
