An improved back-up pad apparatus for use in externally welding abutting ends of pipe is formed of hard anodized aluminum material and comprises a plurality of arcuate back-up pads for interior positioning to face the weld. Each arcuate pad is mounted on a shoe for biased engagement with the interior cylindrical surfaces of the pipes. Intermediate shoes carrying cylindrically surfaced members are provided at the rounded ends of adjacent back-up pads.
