SSW foot switch permits user to use both hands
to position weldment between tongs. Can be held
longer if longer hold time is desired.

®

SSW models are designed for stationary
use and come with an all-steel pedestal
which houses timers and controls.

All spot welders operate on single-phase input
power, and require an air supply of 60 PSI
(414 kPa) minimum.

SSW models come complete with:
Stationary welding head
Remote foot switch
Pedestal inclusive of controls
and timer
Air filter/regulator assembly
Order tongs/tips separately to
match your applications

Adjustable tong pressure nuts to adjust tong
pressure for different thicknesses and applications.

Power switch/power “on” light/circuit breaker
protects control circuitry. Easy reset.

Air filter/regulator
assembly included.

Set-up/weld switch permits checking of
tong pressure and alignment without
making a weld.

Cam-operated locking device simplifies
installation and adjustment of bottom tong.

Built-in squeeze/weld timer makes it quick
and easy to set or adjust squeeze and/or
weld time in hundredths of a second.

Ten-step current control adjusts output current
with no change in duty cycle.

LED display makes it easy to read and
see timer settings.

Tongs and tips shown to the
left can be used with all PSW
and SSW model spot welders.
Recommended max. tong
length is 18 in (457 mm).
Tong throat-height dimension
for standard 90° and 45° tongs
is 4-1/4 in (108 mm). Throat
length is measured from the
center of the spot tips to the
front water hose connection.
X = tong length.
One set of tips is supplied with
each set of tongs.
Tips are made of RWMA Class
2 alloy.
Maximum welding capabilities
are obtained with minimum
tong length.
MT = Morse Taper.
No. 1 Morse Taper has smaller
diameter than No. 2 Morse
Taper.
