C 08 with centering tube PPR-2 - Stud Welding Gun
The C 08 with PPR-2 centering tube is designed for precise stud welding on thin metal sheets from 0.5 mm, including insulation pins with flange and ignition tip. Its centering tube supports controlled stud positioning, while zero-play piston guidance and adjustable spring pressure provide consistent welding performance in restricted spaces and specialized applications.

FAQs
The PPR-2 centering tube helps maintain consistent stud positioning during welding. It is useful when accurate alignment is important, particularly for thin-sheet applications, insulation pins, and manual CD stud welding, where positioning directly affects weld consistency.
The C 08 PPR-2 is especially suitable for metal sheets from 0.5 mm. Actual results depend on the stud diameter, base material, welding energy, and surface condition, making application testing important for thin-sheet stud welding.
The C 08 PPR-2 supports M3–M8 / #4–5/16" studs as standard. M10 or 7/16" studs require special equipment. Standard stud lengths are 6–40 mm, while longer lengths can be accommodated with optional accessories.
Yes. The C 08 PPR-2 is made for insulation pins with a flange and ignition tip, making it ideal for attaching insulation-related welding elements to thin sheet metal and other fabricated surfaces that require precise stud positioning.
The C 08 PPR-2 is compatible with Sunbelt CD stud welding machines, including the CDi-1502, CDi-2302, CDi-3102, CDMi-2402, and CDMi-3202, subject to the required stud diameter and welding configuration.
Yes. The compact 170 × 40 × 140 mm gun is suitable for restricted-access welding. Its small footprint helps operators position the welding gun where larger equipment may be difficult to maneuver or align.
Yes. The C 08 PPR-2 can accommodate different welding element types and shapes when fitted with the appropriate special chuck. This provides flexibility for applications using non-standard studs or specialized fastening elements.
