Quickclamp Orbital Weldhead
The Magnatech Quickclamp weld heads are designed to make pipe-to-pipe and pipe-to-fitting welds.They are “full function” – with the capability of reproducing all the precise motions of a skilled welder. A continuously adjustable clamp eliminates the need to interchange components when changing pipe sizes. Simply slip the head over the pipe and clamp with a toggle lever.
The Quickclamp heads improve productivity by increasing duty cycle, reducing repair rates, and producing welds of consistent quality.
