Unbuttoning Test

How favorable the welding results are may be determined by welding specimen plates and then carrying out a rolling test.

The narrow, welded test strip is vertically rolled or torn off the second sheet metal strip.

Perfect quality welded spots do not tear in the area of contact but are "Unbuttoned".
