WELD MOUNT

The WELD MOUNT system is a unique combination of fasteners and adhesives that enables virtually any material to be fastened without the need for any welding, drilling, riveting or tapping. The system comprises wire tie mounts, hose and cable clamps, floating nut plates as well as other fasteners. Every element can be affixed vertically or overhead using the innovative adhesives. The AT-2010 and AT-8040 adhesives reach their high tensile strength in a mere 20 to 30 minutes. The WELD MOUNT system can be readily and easily used with no extensive training required, thus saving on the high costs associated with welding, drilling, riveting or tapping.

    Installation process

    Insert the 2-component cartridge into the PM 207 dispensing gun and attach the Köratool mixing tip.

    Clean the surface and the WELD MOUNT fastener using Scotchbrite and a solvent-based cleaner.

    Apply a small amount of adhesive to the underside of the WELD MOUNT fastener.

    Press the fastener firmly onto the substrate until the adhesive oozes out to the side. Depending on the chosen adhesive, the fastener will be ready for use within 15-45 minutes.

    Benefits of the WELD MOUNT system

    Benefits for composite materials

    • No drilling of composites: this eliminates the risk of moisture penetrating the core.
    • No spacers required during installation: less weight and lower production costs as a result.
    • No inadvertent drilling damage: no expensive repairs or delays as a result.
    • Neat and clean installation: ideal for subsequent changes or additions.
    • Can also be used in places that are very awkward to reach for personnel or with tools.

    Benefits for metal and industrial applications

    WELD MOUNT offers significant advantages compared to welding:

    • No prep work, no checking, and no waiting around for permits.
    • Lower production costs.
    • No safety inspections or fire safety regulations.
    • No noxious vapours or gas ventilation issues unlike with welding.
    • No warpage, no discolouration of components and consequently no costs for subsequent grinding, polishing or pickling.

    WELD MOUNT offers significant advantages compared to drilling and tapping:

    • Handling: no need to install magnetic drilling equipment in awkward locations or on overhead surfaces.
    • Time savings: drilling and tapping into hard substrates is both labourintensive and time-consuming.
    • Safety: drilling and tapping into tanks or cladding can result in leakages.
    • Reduced costs: WELD MOUNT lowers the cost of tools and consumables.
