54B002 - Walter Surfox Replacement Clamp Rings - Pack of 10

Precision Component for Electrochemical Cleaning Efficiency

The Walter Surfox Clamp Ring (54B002) is an essential replacement component designed specifically for the Walter Surfox electrochemical weld cleaning systems. In the precise world of passivation and stainless steel finishing, maintaining the integrity of the cleaning wand is paramount. This clamp ring serves the critical function of securing the cleaning pad or boot onto the standard tungsten insert, ensuring that the consumable remains fixed during the vigorous cleaning process.

Constructed from high-quality, chemical-resistant polymers, these rings are engineered to withstand the harsh environment created by electrolytic cleaning fluids (electrolytes) and the heat generated during the electrochemical reaction. A compromised or loose clamp ring can lead to pad slippage, which not only interrupts the workflow but can also cause direct contact between the tungsten tip and the workpiece, potentially leading to arcing or surface damage. By maintaining a tight seal and secure fit, the 54B002 ensures consistent electrolyte delivery and optimal electrical conductivity through the pad.

This product is supplied in a pack of 10, acknowledging the consumable nature of components in high-production environments. It is fully compatible with a range of Surfox inserts, including the 48-R-133, 54-B-016, 54-B-036, and 54-B-037. For industrial operators utilizing the Surfox system to remove heat tint and passivate stainless steel welds, keeping a stock of these clamp rings is a standard best practice to minimize downtime and maintain the high standards of finish required in food, pharmaceutical, and architectural applications.

Technical Compatibility

The 54B002 is designed to interface seamlessly with the standard Surfox wand assembly. It provides the necessary mechanical retention for various cleaning boots and pads, allowing the operator to maneuver the wand across complex geometries without fear of the consumable detaching. Its robust design resists the thermal cycles inherent in the weld cleaning process.
