Ceramic backing for welding is used as a support at the root of the joint during processes that require complete penetration. Its function is to contain the molten pool and promote proper bead formation at the back of the joint.
This type of accessory improves the quality of the bead and facilitates the execution of butt joints, providing thermal stability and proper root configuration. The use of ceramic backing is common in metal fabrication, welded structures, and industrial applications where precision and repeatability are required.
It is mainly used in the welding of sheet metal, metal structures, containers or industrial components where the quality of the root bead is crucial. The selection of ceramic backing must be made taking into account the thickness of the material, the type of joint and the welding process used.
This category also includes other complementary accessories for handling and managing welding material, such as the hood or hopper for wire drums, designed to facilitate the feeding of material from large-capacity containers and improve organisation in production environments.
