Pipe Welding Spacing Tool Set (8”, 12”, 18”) – Stick Welding Gap Gauge Kit for Pipe Fit-Up | 1/16” Thickness Carbon Steel

When it comes to pipe welding, your fit-up determines everything. Root penetration, bead profile, and overall weld integrity all start with one thing — consistent spacing. The Matador-style Pipe Welding Spacing Tool Set is built for welders who understand that precision isn’t optional. This 3-piece set (8”, 12”, and 18”) is designed to help you quickly and accurately create a uniform root gap when fitting pipe for stick welding (SMAW). Each piece is cut from durable carbon steel or Stainless Steel at a true 1/16” thickness, giving you a reliable reference for consistent spacing across different pipe diameters and positions. The varying lengths allow you to work efficiently whether you’re fitting smaller pipe or handling larger diameter work in the field. This isn’t just a spacer — it’s a tool that helps you: • Maintain consistent root openings for better penetration • Improve arc control and puddle stability • Reduce guesswork during fit-up • Deliver cleaner, more professional welds under real job conditions Whether you’re in the shop or out in the field, this set keeps your setup tight, repeatable, and ready for inspection. Built for welders who take pride in their fit-up — because the weld is only as good as the prep. Key Features:   • 3-piece set: 8”, 12”, and 18” lengths • 1-1/2” wide x 1/16” thick for precise spacing • Ideal for pipe fit-up and stick welding (SMAW) • Durable carbon steel construction • Simple, reliable, and field-ready design
