Aquasol Corporation (North Tonawanda, NY), a western New York manufacturer of welding supplies, has extended its product line with the introduction of SoluGap. SoluGap is a water-soluble socket welding spacer ring, featuring a patent-pending design for a one-step application.
SoluGap has a specially engineered design that separates it from its competitors. Each ring has 3 tabbed edges that are exclusively designed to secure SoluGap in place, even when sockets are positioned sideways or upside down. Because the spacer is a solid ring, viewing is not compromised during socket welding. The specially engineered patent-pending design of SoluGap provides an even, pre-measured 1/16 in minimum gap required for socket welding contractions.
Unlike metal spacers that can produce weld splatter and slag, SoluGap is made of Aquasol Water Soluble Board that dissolves completely and rapidly in most liquids. Having greater mass than Water Soluble Paper, Aquasol Water Soluble Board is sturdy and strong for easy handling.
SoluGap is also available in a variety of sizes ranging from ½ in to 2 ½ in diameter.
