Gusset magnets from Strong Hand Tools align, locate, and hold steel gussets, base plates, and steel panels against a steel substructure in assembly, tacking, and welding operations. Four rare earth disc magnets embedded in the Gusset magnet faceplate hold steel panels against a frame or substructure with direct, even clamping pressure for a fast, accurate, and convenient setup. The low-profile Gusset magnets leave ample space for welding access.
Three adjustable 1-1/2” long magnetic hex bolts protrude from the magnet face and can be pre-set to the correct depth to securely position the gusset or panel in a precise location for tack welding. Three positioning pins on the Gusset magnet faceplate act as a guide for the quick alignment and positioning of the magnet against the substructure.
Strong Hand Tools also introduces the tri-mode welder platform, which is capable of tighter tolerances and flexibility, producing finished parts, while the new FS3W end effecter has produced integral fastener results testing 250% stronger joints than spot welds or rivets, achieving high-strength joints in excess of 544kg.
