Item 280055.XD8PL: Siegmund System 28 Professional Extreme 8.8 PLUS welding table, 4000 x 2000 mm, with Ø28 mm bores in a diagonal grid on the top and bored 300 mm sides. The top is through-hardened X8.8 tool steel, plasma nitrided and BAR-coated, with ribbed construction. Siegmund describes System 28 as ideal for light to heavy components and designed for maximum clamping forces, multi-ton structures and high distortion forces. Siegmund describes the PLUS version as having an increased table side height for special complex applications, with more clamping options. BTH Sales is the exclusive Canadian importer of Siegmund.

Compatibility
- Fits: all Siegmund System 28 (Ø28 mm) tooling: clamps, bolts, stops, squares, U-squares, prisms & supports, tooling sets, sub-table boxes, bench vice and table press. Siegmund System 28 accessories you buy for this table also fit other 28 mm system welding tables with Ø28 mm bores. Compatible tables from other manufacturers are often made from different materials and to different standards, so quality varies by manufacturer, compared with Siegmund's X8.8 tool steel.
- Not compatible: System 16 (Ø16 mm) tooling without Siegmund connecting elements.
- Care & grounding: anti-spatter spray, CleanBasic cleaner, Ground Connection Comfort (S16/S28).
What's included
- Table top 4000 x 2000 x 300 mm with plasma-nitrided surface and sides
- 8 legs of the selected type, with mounting screws
- Shipped as a kit on a pallet; you screw the legs to the table top on site
Not included: Siegmund recommends a Sleeve for Table Leg on every leg with a foot plate (280859 for standard and floor-anchoring legs, 280859.1 for height-adjustable legs), and a bore brush (280820) for cleaning the holes. Clamps, bolts, stops and squares are sold separately (see Compatibility).

Engineering support & demos
Engineering support comes with your purchase: fixture design, layout drawings, CAD and 3D models, site visits and cobot cell planning, handled by Travis Hardcastle at BTH Sales or by Siegmund directly. BTH Sales does not sell cobots; for cobot cells we help with table integration and fixturing (see cobot welding with Siegmund tables). Live demos at our St. Marys showroom are by appointment (book a demo), and we offer video demos if you are outside Ontario. BTH Sales is family-owned, founded in 2001, and has been the exclusive Canadian importer of Siegmund since 2018.
Typical uses
- Light to heavy components: Siegmund describes System 28 as designed for maximum clamping forces, multi-ton structures and high distortion forces.
- Precise, repeatable fixtures: the grid lines on the top allow precise constructions, and the bored 300 mm sides add clamping faces.
- Complex setups: Siegmund describes the PLUS table's higher sides as made for special complex applications, with more clamping options.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which legs should I choose for this table?
Choose standard legs for a fixed working height, or height-adjustable legs if you need to change the height; Siegmund says the height-adjustable legs keep their full load-bearing capacity at any height. Floor-anchoring legs anchor the table to the floor for applications that demand stability. The Leg options table above lists each Siegmund article and its static load per leg.
Will System 16 accessories fit this System 28 table?
Not directly. Siegmund builds each system around one bore size, so this table takes System 28 (Ø28 mm) bolts, clamps, stops and squares. All System 28 tool parts and sets fit every System 28 table series, and Siegmund offers connecting elements if you need to work across systems. System 28 is Siegmund's heavy-duty system; System 16 is its 50 mm grid system for finer fixtures.
How should I clean and protect the plasma-nitrided surface?
Siegmund recommends its anti-spatter spray before welding, CleanBasic cleaner after welding, a bore brush for the holes, and a light coat of non-corrosive oil if the table will stand unused. Avoid acids and abrasive cleaners, and do not use an oilstone on a plasma-nitrided table. Remove clamps and other accessories before cleaning.
How is the table delivered and set up?
Siegmund ships the table as a kit on a pallet, and you screw the legs to the table top on site with the screws supplied. BTH Sales ships tables by freight from St. Marys, Ontario, or you can pick up from our warehouse. Email sales@bthsales.ca with your delivery city for a freight quote. Please inquire if you need lift gate delivery.
How does the 8.8 PLUS differ from the 8.7 table in this size?
The 8.8 PLUS has 300 mm table sides instead of 200 mm, giving more clamping positions, and Siegmund says the higher side and ribbing make the top stiffer and reduce deformation under load. It is made of X8.8 tool steel, which Siegmund rates harder than X8.7 after plasma nitriding (about 500–900 HV surface hardness against 450–850 HV), and its PLUS standard legs are rated at 3,000 kg static load per leg instead of 2,000 kg.
