After busting my branch test on a 250 wall, I came back and decided to fine-tune the Branch Template. I asked my good friend Jose Macedo to help me with the fine-tuning. With his 46 years of welding experience, we believe we've created the best template and list of advice to help you go from marking to welding with less grinding.
Fit-up is where the weld is won or lost. Wrap it, mark it, cut it, and set a 12" branch saddle that sits tight on the header. No burning daylight grinding, eyeballing, and re-fitting.
Make sure your template matches the pipe you're running. A 375 template on 250 pipe (or the other way around) won't give you the fit you're after. Not sure what the next job calls for? Grab the bundle.
This template is proudly made here in Texas at our facility.
