Is the gap too wide to weld properly? Here's how to fix it!

Hello everyone, today we are going to solve a common problem in the welding process: **What should I do if the gap is too wide to weld normally? **

**As shown in the figure,**we need to weld two steel plates together, but the gap is too wide. Direct welding will lead to a weak weld, and even problems such as false welding and leaking welding. **Don't worry,**I will teach you a simple and practical method to easily solve it!

**Step 1:**Prepare an iron block with a nut welded on it, and weld it on the surface of the steel plate, close to the gap.

**Step 2:**Screw the screw into the nut and tighten it gradually. As the screw is tightened, the side cover will squeeze inward, gradually pulling the two steel plates closer.

**Step 3:**Continue to tighten the screw until the two steel plates fit tightly and the gap disappears.

**Step 4:**Finally, just weld the joint directly. Since the gap has been eliminated, the welding will be more solid and the quality of the weld will be greatly improved.

**This method is simple and easy to use. **No special tools are needed to effectively solve the problem of the gap being too wide to weld properly. **Have you learned it? **Try it now!

**Follow me,** learn more welding skills and practical knowledge to make your welding work more handy!
