Welding Platen Uses
The welding tables and acorn style tables are used for layout, setup, and clamping of welded parts. They are also used for bending and straightening of railing, pipe, angle iron and any other metal fabrications.
The welding table is machined for close tolerance work and repeatability. A large assortment of Weldsale welding platens and welding tables are available from stock.
Weldsale Welding Table Details
Our Weldsale welding platens and welding tables are cross ribbed in both directions greatly reducing sagging and warping. The cross ribbing helps to assure a long lasting flat working surface on the top side.
The Weldsale welding platens are made from cast iron (grey iron) and are machined to .005” per foot tolerance for a work surface that stays flat for an indefinite period.
Welding Platen Stands
Weldsale company also has available a full line of Weldsale stands to support the Weldsale platens. Weldsale new style flush mount platen stands allow fast and efficient construction of multiple platen beds, now or later. The Weldsale stands are also known generically as the “legs” for the platens. Standard height is 32 inches. Custom heights are available with an extra lead time and extra cost.
We also have the light duty stands for the light duty platens.
Weldsale Tooling
Weldsale Company also has available Weldsale clamps, bending posts, and welding cubes. Additionally Weldsale has patents on a family of FlexTooling components. The variety of available tooling from Weldsale includes the gooseneck hold down dogs, tapered drift pins, bending posts, arm clamps and horizontal clamps etc.
Weldsale FlexTooling is also known generically as welding clamps, bending posts, welding cubes, work holding fixtures, angle plates, box parallels, etc. We have all types of tooling to fit Weldsale platen tables, Acorn style platen tables, and generic platen tables.
Weldsale New Products
Weldsale company also has available a new line of Weldsale cast iron cubes, tombstones, towers, knees, angle plates and other products to make the two dimensional Weldsale platen into a 3 dimensional surface. These mini platen blocks can be stacked and bolted to the welding table for clamping at elevated heights above the platen.
We are continually bringing out new products. We also make custom products. Please inquire.
Weldsale Downdraft Welding Tables
Weldsale Company sells downdraft tables, welding fume extraction equipment, welding fume extractors, and general platen style welding down draft tables. Weldsale downdraft systems pull smoke and fumes through the down draft welding table and away from the welders breathing zone.
The downdraft principle (moving welding smoke away from the welder) is in keeping with OSHA guidelines regarding Hexavalent Chromium general welding smoke. The Weldsale downdraft table system is especially suitable for galvanized, stainless, aluminum and other metals where toxic fumes may occur.
Used Welding Platen
Weldsale Company has available subject to market conditions re-machined used welding tables and acorn style tables. Weldsale used platens are Blanchard ground on the top surface which leaves a flat surface machined to .005” per foot. This provides a cast iron table that stays flat for an extended period of time.
We have re-machined and sold platens that were 60 sixty years old and customer satisfaction was very high. Cast iron is durable non- warping. These cast iron (grey iron) welding platens hold up for a very long period of time. Weldsale company provides tooling for used welding tables for holes sizes of 1 ¾”, 1 5/8”, and 1 ½”. New Weldsale platens have 1 ¾" holes as standard. Old Acorn style platen typically have 1 ½" holes. Please check holes size before ordering tooling.
Weldsale Flame–Clear Pyramids
Weldsale flame-clear pyramids are also called cutting pyramids, burning pyramids, flame clear pyramids, etc. These Weldsale flame-clear pyramids protect the cross support on cutting tables.
Weldsale Other Products
Weldsale also has available new and reconditioned Welding Positioners, Turning Rolls, Welding Machines and Cutting Machines.
