Practice Weld Plate Coupons MEGA-Kit - 3/8" Limited Thickness AWS D1.1

10 Plates + 5 Backing Strips | Over 5 Feet of Real Test-Style Welding

In stock and ready to ship.

This is our largest 3/8" Limited Thickness practice kit — built for serious welders who want real AWS-style preparation without paying for full-width test plates every time.

What You Get

• 10 precision-cut 3/8" A36 practice plates

• 5 backing strips (1" wide × 1/4" thick)

• Unassembled for custom fit-up and gap selection

Each plate is cut to 2" width to reduce material cost and shipping weight — while maintaining the exact groove geometry, bevel angle, and thickness used in real AWS D1.1 testing.

Realistic Test Simulation

• 22.5° bevel on both edges

• Forms a true 45° groove when assembled

• Same thickness and welding feel as full test plates

• Identical root gap setup options

The only difference from a code-compliant test plate is width (2" vs 4").
These are designed for practice and training — not official code testing.

Maximum Welding Volume

With 10 plates and 5 backing strips, you get:

• 5 complete test-width equivalents

• Over 5 feet of weld groove practice

• Plates beveled on both sides for multiple setups

• Ability to cut and reconfigure for additional passes

This is significantly more welding practice than purchasing individual test plates.
