Toxing of the Shear Band

The traditional shear band fabrication entails spot welding of clamps to the shear band. Heat created during the welding process actually burns the stainless steel. The composition of the stainless steel is attacked and intercristalline corrosion can result at the welding points.

The shear band on the new Mücher, Canada Plus Coupling incorporates the latest in stainless steel fastening techniques: TOX®-Technology (no spot welds). The negative aspects associated with spot welding are eliminated in this advance process, yet the bond meets or exceeds all relevant tensile strength and shear requirements.
