Modvat credit denial affirmed for spot welding electrodes as non-inputs; resistance welding electrodes conduct electricity and do not become part of product. Modvat credit is denied for spot welding electrodes/tips because they are non-consumable tools rather than inputs. Technical advice found spot welding to be a resistance welding process whose electrodes act as conductors of electricity and do not become part of the welded product; this contrasts with arc welding electrodes that melt and serve as filler metal. The Board therefore reiterated its prior instructions denying Modvat credit on spot welding electrodes/tips.
