Bernard Shortstub 40B User manual

Electrodes can be used to within one inch of
the high heat, high impact head compared with
the normal three inches of the electrode that is
leftover when using a typical tong-type holder.
Bernard Shortstub greatly improves
productivity because it is designed for quick,
easy installation of electrodes and it is built
to last with a proven high impact, high heat
replaceable head.
Bernard Shortstub models provide long life
because the replaceable head can be ordered
separately and installed quickly, eliminating total
replacement.
Over 2,000 pounds of gripping pressure
enables the electrode to be bent to a desired
shape for access to difficult welds.
