The BuildPro welding tables, exemplified by the Alpha series, offer a comprehensive set of features designed to meet the rigorous demands of welding and fabrication professionals. Here's a succinct description of their key characteristics:
Reversible Self-Locating Top & Side Plates: All BuildPro welding tables feature precision-machined self-locating steel plates. An outstanding feature is the reversible top plates, which allow each plate to be removed and flipped 180 degrees. This ingenious design permits users to present a fresh working surface if the top side has been damaged or shows signs of wear and tear.
Table Accuracy:
-
Table Flatness: These tables maintain an impressive level of flatness, with a tolerance of ±0.005 inches per 24 inches by 24 inches, ensuring a consistently level work surface.
-
Hole Spacing: The tables offer uniform hole spacing, with holes positioned 2.000 inches apart, and a high precision tolerance of ±0.001 inches.
-
Hole Diameter: Each hole on the table boasts a diameter of 0.625 inches, with a tight tolerance of +.002 inches/- .000 inches.
-
Plate Thickness: The plates themselves are constructed with a thickness of 0.47 inches and maintain a tolerance of ±0.004 inches.
Tabletop Side Height: In the case of the new five-sided tables, a 5-1/2 inch side plate is combined with the top plate, resulting in a total side height of 6 inches. This height provides a stable and ergonomic working surface for welding and fabrication tasks.
Extended Borehole Pattern: The side plates on Alpha tables are equipped with an extended 5 borehole pattern. This pattern enhances precision and adjustability, facilitating the secure clamping of workpieces in various welding setups.
Nitrided (Heat-Treated) Tabletop: Alpha tables are constructed using heat-treated steel for exceptional durability. The top plates are hardened to a remarkable Rockwell hardness (HRC) range of 58-62, ensuring outstanding wear resistance. The side plates have a slightly lower hardness, ranging from 50-55 HRC. Additionally, a nitrite coating is applied to all plates, offering corrosion resistance and a case depth ranging from .0004 to .0008 inches.
Plate Mounting Detail for Side Plates: The side plates are designed with a self-locating bushing system. This system simplifies the process of mounting and aligning the side plates, further enhancing the precision and usability of the table.
