VIII – ACCESSORIES A) CLEANING TIPS. They are made from high quality stainless steel. Cleaning tips are available in several different shapes and sizes: Stainless steel insert 90º: For large flat surfaces and external angles. Part number 54–B 021 To be used with cleaning pad 54–B 001 (and clamp ring 54– 002); To be used with cleaning boot 54–B 005 for internal corners Stainless steel insert 60º: For large internal surfaces and corners.

VIII – ACCESSORIES B) CLEANING PADS. Cleaning pads are used on flat surfaces and external angles. They can also be used for internal corners or as a first step, as they clean much faster than cleaning boots. The cleaning pads are made from specially engineered polymer comprised of two (2) separate layers: one internal rigid layer which is in contact with the insert for increased heat and chemical resistance, and one soft external layer which is soft so that it will not damage or scratch the work piece during the cleaning operation.

VIII – ACCESSORIES (cont’d) C) CLEANING BOOTS. Cleaning boots are made from a specially engineered polymer. They are composed of one rigid layer which is very thin and durable, but not very absorbent (does not hold liquid). This may require additional Surfox–T solution to keep the boot wet during cleaning.
VIII – ACCESSORIES (cont’d) D) PTFE CLAMP RINGS. PTFE clamp rings are designed to hold the cleaning pads on the tungsten inserts. They are available in two (2) sizes: Clamp ring: Part number 54–B 002. Narrow clamp ring: Part number 54–B 020. IX –...
