  • Model 3000 And Model 4000 Refurbishment Program

We refurbish, service and supply parts for all WorkRite Model 3000 and 4000 wood welders, ensuring they leave our plant ready for many more years of trouble-free operation. Many of our 3000 and 4000 machines have been in use from the late 1960s and require little in parts or maintenance to continue reliable operation due to the basic simplicity of design and quality of components.

 

Many repairs can be done with phone advice and repair parts, with machines rarely returned to the plant for repairs.

 

Although WorkRite has discontinued production of the Model 3000/4000 wood welders, we usually have factory re-conditioned 3000/4000 units with a 1-year warranty available on an ongoing basis for customers who need a budget-friendly product. Contact factory for machine availability and pricing.
