OVERVIEW

Techniweld TTV306 Small Stainless Steel Welding Wedge

The Techniweld TTV306 is a specialized Small Stainless Steel Welding Wedge designed to meet the rigorous demands of professional welders and pipefitters. Measuring 4 inches in length and 3/4 inches in width, this tool is engineered for precision and durability. In the world of industrial welding, proper fit-up is the foundation of a high-quality weld, and having the right tools to establish consistent gaps and alignment is essential. This wedge serves as a reliable solution for spreading parts, adjusting misalignment, and maintaining the correct root opening before tacking.

One of the standout features of this wedge is its stainless steel construction. When working on stainless steel piping or plate, using carbon steel tools can introduce free iron to the surface, leading to rust spots and potential weld contamination. By using a stainless steel wedge, fabricators ensure that the integrity of the base material is maintained, adhering to strict code requirements for sanitary or corrosion-resistant applications. The solid metal design allows the wedge to be driven into tight spots with a hammer without deforming easily, providing the leverage needed for tough fit-up jobs.

This tool is compact enough to be carried in a pocket or welding pouch, ensuring it is always at hand when needed. Whether you are aligning heavy plates, spacing pipe joints for a root pass, or simply need a durable prying tool, the TTV306 delivers performance you can trust. Its resistance to corrosion also means it will last longer in humid or chemically active environments compared to standard steel alternatives.

Key Benefits

  • Contamination Control: specifically made for stainless steel applications to prevent iron pickup.
  • Robust Design: Solid stainless steel withstands impact and prying forces.
  • Versatile Sizing: The 4" x 3/4" dimension is ideal for a wide range of gap sizes and alignment tasks.
