Knew Concepts Titanium Soldering Support Clamp Set
Knew Concepts Titanium Soldering Support Clamp Set
Once bent into clamp shapes, these Knew Concepts 100mm long titanium strips are a fantastic way to help support when soldering awkward to hold pieces of jewellery.
They can be personalised by easily bending and filing them into curves or points for specialised, custom clamps for your hard-soldering tasks. As these are made from fully annealed titanium they have numerous benefits for being used rather than regular clamps and clips.
They maintain their strength and shape when subjected to high red-hot temperatures and will not erode or flake, solder and enamel will not stick to them plus most importantly titanium does not transfer heat nearly as quickly as steel and therefore interferes less with the area that you are soldering.
- Size: approx 100mm x 4.5mm
- Sold as a pack of 2 flat strips
- Made of fully annealed titanium
- Ready to be formed into custom clamps
- Solder won't stick
- Won't transfer heat nearly as quickly as steel

- Use tough hardware type pliers to form into shapes, not your jewellery pliers suited for softer metals.
- These strips come fully annealed. Do not heat to try to anneal further before forming into shapes, as heating titanium does not anneal it, but rather makes it harder. So if you were to heat prior to fully forming into shapes you may risk breaking the strip as the metal will be harder and therefore more brittle.
