respect to the correctness of information in this document. Copyright by SEAT S.A.
With laser welding, a high-energy light beam is directed by means
of optical lenses or fibre optics onto the weld point.
During the welding operation the top panel is melted through and
the bottom panel melted on the surface; in this way a weld is
formed without any filler material.
When performing repairs, the laser weld seams are replaced by
SG plug weld seams or RP spot weld seams.

♦ The central column reinforcement, is very hard and strong and
of considerable thickness. Special millers will be necessary for
resistant steel in order to work on this part.
♦ The upper rim of the central strut reinforcement is inserted be‐

Note
♦ Note that when separating the part, the adhesive joints on the lower tab will make the extraction of the part

♦ Take care when drilling the hole in the B-pillar reinforcement since this is extremely hard and resistant and
represents a significant thickness of material.
