TITE-SPOT PLIERS TM
THE TITE-SPOT Welders has a unique and
patented spot welding pliers, featuring - cooling of the cables and pliers assembly using compressed air from your shop. This cooling feature improves the TITE-SPOT duty cycle over 800%. The cooling also lets the technician work without clumsy gloves, improving his productivity and generating bigger profits. Because the TITE-SPOT Pliers is constructed of stainless steel, weight and size are kept to a minimum. The handsomely crafted stainless steel handle only weighs 16 ounces; this improves technician speed without wearing him out. The welding cable that is used is an industrial grade 250 MCM Neoprene jacketed welding cable with 2499 strands of 30 AWG pure copper wire. The cables are 8' 6" long and have a minimum bending radius of 4 inches for maximum flexibility. Compressed air is injected into the cables where the cables are bolted to the transformer. This also helps cool the transformer, improving the transformer's performance. After the cooling air passes through the cables, it then passes through the upper and lower jaws of the pliers, carrying off the heat. This cooling air also provides a well ventilated environment to protect the technician from the fumes of the welding process. Compressed air cooling extends the service life of the TITE-SPOT pliers by many, many years.
Safety:
Spot welding is the safest form of welding in the Body Shop Industry today. There are no open flames like a torch, and there is no arc that the
technician must be shielded from as with a MIG, TIG or STICK. A technician needs only clear eye protection - No bulky, sweaty welding helmet to wear.

Spatter is a constant threat to the safety of the body shop, personnel, and the vehicles in the shop. Technicians spend many hours removing interiors, covering glass, and protecting other vehicles from spatter. Spatter is virtually eliminated when using the TITE-SPOT Pliers. Safety is improved and productivity is increased.
Grinding welds is also a hazard to almost everything in a body shop. With the TITE-SPOT Pliers, the sparks can be eliminated! Spot welding simply melts the two pieces of steel together so there is nothing to grind. Welds can be readied for primer with a wire brush.
Speed: Body shops can complete the spot welding process on today's vehicles in less time. For example, a wheelhouse can be prepared, welded and primed in 6 to 7 minutes using the TITE-SPOT Pliers. With a MIG welder, a typical wheelhouse would take 35 to 45 minutes for a technician to punch, weld and then grind the welds.
A large amount of time can be spent
protecting the vehicle from MIG welding spatter. Spot welding is much safer and there is no spatter. Much less time is spent protecting the vehicle from the dangers of fire.
Spot welds never require grinding. Grinding MIG welds takes a lot of time! Protecting the vehicle is not necessary if you do not have to grind the welds.
Appearance: The "New Car" appearance of a spot weld installed with a
TITE-SPOT Pliers is impressive. Vehicles are spot welded at the factory. NOW, Professional Body Shops can
duplicate this OEM appearance when repairing vehicles. If you want your welds to look like factory welds, you must use a TITE-SPOT Welder.
