Double side welding preparation
CLEAN BOTH SIDE OF THE 2 METAL SHEETS
Clean both sides of the sheet metal on the area of the welding
spot to insure a good electric contact between the electrodes
and the metal sheets and between the sheets surfaces
Single side gun electrode sharpening
•
Sharpen the electrodes with a file
•
The electrode shape should be regular and not flat,
typically round or conic
Single side welding preparation
•
Clean both sides of the top metal sheet
•
Clean the top side of the bottom metal sheet
•
Clean the bottom metal sheet at the ground contact point
Single sided gun welding recommendations
•
Apply a pressure of at least 10kg (20lbs) on the electrode
•
Always weld on the thinner metal sheet side
.
•
Always start with the furthest point to the ground to the
closest.
