Weld-on nuts are common throughout the car body for attachments of interior, tail
lights, door moldings, etc. and are applied with ease using the PR-2000.

or on the web at Pro Spot online store.
Nuts are held in place during welding with a shrinking electrode.

Spot hammer dent pulling is used to repair dents on a vehicle body. The spot
hammer welds directly onto the work area and pulls the dent.
