Blowtorch with cartridge

The blow torch is required when preparing the exothermic welding mold. Indeed, the mold is composed of a porous material, graphite. By its very nature, graphite retains air and water particles present in the atmosphere.

In order to perform a quality weld, it is therefore important to heat and dry the mold before use.

► How to choose all the required exothermic welding materials ?

To choose all of the required materials, follow the steps below:

1. Select the graphite mold
2. Select the handle clamp
3. Select the metal powder
4. Select the ignition method
5. Select the accessories and safety equipments

► What if the welding configuration is not available on MALTEP website ?

MALTEP also manufactures graphite molds for the realization of particular welding configuration.

Do not hesitate to consult us for any particular request with the following welding inputs:

• The configuration  of the weld: tee, parallel, etc..
• The nature of the conductors to be welded: cable, round, rebar, etc. (note that aluminium is not suitable with exothermic welding)
• The cross section, diameter, conductors dimensions
• The number of welds to be done for each type of weld
