RESISTANCE HEATING

The number of joints an ArcReach system heats before it has paid for itself:

AN EXTREMELY STRONG RETURN ON INVESTMENT.

SEE HOW

How much you are currently paying to heat each joint. It’s a big expense — and ArcReach Heaters can cut it down significantly.


The typical number of minutes (or less) it takes for an ArcReach Heating System to bring a joint to temperature. Resistance can take hours.

FLAME HEATING

The amount wasted per welder per year when heating with flame — money that could be used to purchase a technology that's four times faster.

AN UNNECESSARY WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY.
