Cadweld Plus One Shot
Permanent exothermic connections without the mold.
CADWELD PLUS ONE SHOT produces a permanent exothermic connection to a ground rod that will not loosen, corrode or increase in resistance for the life of the installation.
The convenient single-use package makes the connection to the ground rod without a mold or starting material. Thanks to the electronic CADWELD PLUS Control Unit, welds can now be completed up to 6 ft. (1.8 m) away, increasing weld flexibility in hard-to- reach areas.
The refractory ceramic body on the CADWELD PLUS ONE SHOT is more durable than conventional ceramic and resists breaking.
