Grindhouse
To provide welding operators with the accuracy and versatility needed to prepare tungsten for both orbital and handheld TIG applications, Weldcraft offers its new Triad (TTG Plus) tungsten grinder. Featuring precision-drilled entries, Triad accommodates six different tungsten electrode diameters-0.040-, 1/16-, 5/64-, 3/32-, 1/8-, and 5/32-inch-and offers four different grinding angles-15-, 18-, 22.5-, 30-degree-to ensure reliable arc starting and good weld penetration. Triad's industrial-grade motor also provides consistent cutting and facing capabilities (up to 5/32-inch) to eliminate the need for and cost of additional tungsten preparation tools. Included with the Triad is a high-quality standard dual-sided diamond-coated grinding wheel designed to provide reliable longterm performance and minimize costs and downtime for replacement. Each tungsten grinder also includes an electrode to ease tungsten rotation and reduce the potential for flat spots, along with a machine holder that allows the Triad to be benchmounted for shop use.

Strip Star
Shift light on the dash? Five-point racing harness? e.t. slips in the glovebox? Does this sound like you? Then Billet Specialties has the wheel for you. Billet Specialties introduces the all-new Street Light street/strip wheel that is SFI 15-1 certified. Each wheel begins as a rotary forged 6061-T6 center milled for light weight, strength, and style, then is joined to a spun outer rim with a 360-degree weld for added strength and superior runout. A mixture of polished and machined surfaces finish off the wheel to ensure the win light comes on every time at the strip or the car show.
