How To Weld Permanent Jewelry
Offering permanent jewelry services can attract new customers to your business, increase revenue, and provide a quick return on your investment. Ready to get started? Let’s dive into the tools you need to succeed.
Sunstone™ Orion™ mPulse Arc Welder
The Sunstone™ Orion™ mPulse Arc Welder (14-0161:100000:T) closes jump rings and chains with incredible speed. It’s ideal for a clean, safe weld when adding permanent jewelry on a customer. With a 30ws power potential, this small and friendly welder can be used by almost anyone and has the power to tackle all sorts of jobs. The mPulse power settings range from three watt-seconds to 30 watt-seconds in one-second increments. It works amazingly well with gold, silver, and many other metals used in permanent jewelry creation and repair. It has a 4.3-inch touch-screen display and comes with an A/C adapter, outlet adapter, and Argon tubing.
Stuller Permanent Jewelry Welding Starter Kit
Stuller’s permanent jewelry welding starter kit (14-0401:100000:T) is a must-have for your shop to protect yourself and your customers. It includes tinted welding glasses, a practice stainless steel chain, skin protection pad, one cutter, and two pliers.
Sunstone™ Argon Gas Tank with Pulse Arc Regulator
Using Sunstone™ Argon gas (14-1415:100:T) with your Orion™ pulse-arc welder will lead to a significantly better and cleaner weld appearance. Though not required to weld, Argon is highly recommended. Metals are exposed to temperatures of upward of 7,000 degrees during the welding process. At these temperatures, most metals become liquid, which allows the formation of the weld. Argon is used to protect the molten pool of metal against elements in the atmosphere including oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen. These elements cause reactions with the liquid weld pool, such as porosity and increased weld spatter. Argon also plays an important role in maintaining arc stability, which leads to increased weld penetration, and better filler wire transfer.
OptiVISOR® Binocular Style DA5 - Power 2 1/2X Magnification Lenses
OptiVISOR® lenses (10-10000) are ground and polished to precision ophthalmic standards. The OptiVISOR® frame is made of lightweight, durable, impact-resistant materials. The comfortable, continuous headband is fully adjustable to fit any size, quickly and easily. Adjustable pivot knobs hold the visor in any position for easy flip-up viewing.

OptiVISOR® Light Attachment
The OptiVISOR® Light attachment (29-4703:238450:T) is a unique, lightweight battery-powered light that illuminates a magnified viewing area. This hands-free light clips onto the visor of most headband binocular magnifiers, and it can be adjusted up or down to ensure that the maximum amount of light is on your work area. It comes with a 10-inch cord for mounting on a headband.
Brass Scratch Brush
The Brass Scratch Brush (16-0590:131925:T) is used for removing rust or corrosion in hard-to-reach places, and is a great tool to have on-hand for repairing permanent jewelry pieces. It has a pen-shaped handle and the fine brass bristles are mounted in a plastic, transparent case. The bristle length can be adjusted as they wear down by twisting the cap.
