CAT'ADVANCED WELD Molds for Parallel connections
CATU CAT'ADVANCED WELD - CEW- // Exothermic Weld
A Parallel Mold is a specialized graphite mold used in exothermic welding to create a parallel bond between two conductors running side by side. This type of weld is designed to permanently join two cables or conductors aligned in the same direction, providing a strong, durable, and highly conductive connection.
Standards compliancy:
- IEEE 837 - UL 467
Key features and functions
- Material: Constructed from high-quality, heat-resistant graphite to withstand the intense heat of the exothermic reaction.
- Joint Type: Produces a parallel weld, ensuring two conductors running alongside each other are securely bonded.
- Precision Alignment: Holds both conductors firmly in place during welding for consistent results.
- Reusable: Can be used multiple times with proper maintenance, making it cost-effective.
- Applications: Ideal for grounding systems, lightning protection, and bonding conductors where a continuous, low-resistance path is required.
Advantages of Parallel Mold Connections
- Creates a molecular-level bond that is stronger and longer-lasting than mechanical connectors or clamps.
- Provides excellent electrical conductivity with minimal resistance.
- Ensures a maintenance-free connection that will not loosen, corrode, or degrade over time.
- Suitable for critical grounding and bonding networks, where reliability is essential.
Available sizes
- Primary conductor in mm² - 25-120mm²
- Secondary conductor in mm² - 25-120mm²
