OVERVIEW

Upgrade to Pneumatic Power

Take the guesswork out of your spot welds with the Pro Spot PTST Upgrade Kit. If you are currently using a manual Twin Spot Torch (TST) for your single-sided welding jobs, you know that hand fatigue can affect your results. This kit (SKU: PTST-KIT) transforms your existing manual tool into a high-performance Pneumatic Twin Spot Torch (PTST), giving you the power and consistency needed for professional auto body repair.

Why upgrade? Modern vehicles use High-Strength Steels (HSS) and Ultra-High-Strength Steels (UHSS) that require precise parameters for safe repairs. Pressure is just as important as current and time. The PTST kit adds a pneumatic cylinder to your gun, delivering constant, high-pressure clamping force at the pull of a trigger. This ensures deep penetration and a solid weld nugget without the strain of manually squeezing the pliers for every weld.

Key Benefits for the Welder:

  • Consistency: Eliminates variable hand pressure for uniform welds across the entire panel.
  • Comfort: Let the air pressure do the work, significantly reducing hand and wrist fatigue.
  • Speed: Faster actuation allows you to move quickly between weld spots.
  • Quality: Reduces surface burning and blowing out of materials due to loose contact.

This kit comes with everything you need to make the switch, including the air cylinder, hoses, and fittings. It is the perfect investment for shops looking to maximize the capability of their existing Pro Spot welders without buying a brand-new gun assembly.

FAQ

The PTST-KIT is designed to upgrade a manual Pro Spot Twin Spot Torch (TST) to a Pneumatic Twin Spot Torch (PTST) for automated pressure application.

Yes, once converted to the PTST configuration, the tool will require a compressed air connection to operate the pneumatic cylinder.

It is compatible with Pro Spot welders that utilize the TST/PTST gun system, such as the i4 and i5 models. Check your machine's manual for specific accessory compatibility.

Yes, by providing consistent pneumatic pressure, the kit eliminates variations caused by manual squeezing, resulting in more uniform and reliable spot welds.

The kit is designed for a straightforward conversion, replacing the manual handle mechanism with the pneumatic assembly. Basic mechanical skills are required.

No, this kit converts the mechanism to pneumatic operation. The manual squeeze lever is replaced by the pneumatic cylinder system.

The kit typically includes the pneumatic cylinder, air hoses, trigger modification parts, and mounting hardware necessary for the conversion.

Single-sided welding requires firm contact to prevent arcing and ensure current transfer. Pneumatic pressure maintains this contact reliably without operator effort.
