When EZ Wipes™ came on the market a few years back, Arc-Zone became a big fan. They were easy to use, and convenient, but unfortunately as packaged—in a plastic canister—they dried out before you could use them all and the manufacturer of EZ Wipes discontinued production.
We were disappointed, but it was the right decision at the time.
And we are excited to tell you that EZ Wipes™ are back on the market!
Whether you’re welding a specialty alloy, or a metal like titanium, or you just want to get the best weld possible, proper preparation of your base metal is essential. With EZ Wipes™ you can loosen dried contaminants with the abrasive side of the pre-saturated lint-free fabric, and you can clean away contaminants like oil, ink, tar and wax as well as heavy grease and paint, revealing a ready-to-weld surface with the smooth side.
These acetone-free wipes now come in individual packets. They are a great addition to any professional weld shop whether you’re working on motorcycles, jet engine parts, or yacht towers or if you’re a weekend welders working with specialty metals like stainless steel and titanium where eliminating contamination is critical.

EZ Zone Welding Tape
Aluminum welding tape – also called welding, backing, or purge tape – is a specialized aluminum tape that is engineered for high-purity welding applications. The tape is formulated with no contaminates in the adhesive, and is commonly referred to as halogen-free tape.
None of these tapes are designed for high-purity welding applications, and may not be allowed on many jobsites. The adhesive is not engineered to withstand welding, and will contribute to substandard, contaminated welds that are messy to clean up after welding.
Aluminum welding tape is formulated with no contaminates in the adhesive, resulting in high-purity welds. Continue reading
