Serious question. Why do this process instead of welding?
@LOCKNSTITCH 7 күн бұрын
GREAT question - this process is a cold mechanical process, no heat involved. Heat can change the properties of cast iron causing more damage. Here is a page that explains it in more detail on our website. www.locknstitch.com/cast-iron-welding.html Also if you have additional questions or have a specific repair our team would be happy to provide you support by phone or email anytime. [email protected] or 209/632-2345 We can provide the service to do the repair for you or sell you the products to do the repair yourself. Appreciate you 'stopping' by our channel to ask!

Impressive. I need to be able to do this to my Cleveland block. Small 3/4 crack which only shows up with magna fluxing. I’ve got to search for the material used and tools to do the repair. Just worried that it’s more than the cost of a second block. Which would cost me $300 to buy. Then $700 to clean,zero deck,square and bore. I will watch this a few times to better my understanding of how it’s done. Thank you!!!

The previous video cut off short; after installing the second set of pins do you then make a third pass, filling in the spaces between the first pins not filled by the second set? I have an old Toyota that froze recently, causing a minor crack in the side of the block. I recalled seeing these videos since years ago and I've fallen back down the rabbit hole looking into repair methods.

What is the difference between L and C pins, what kind of alloy are the pins made of ,are the pins made according to MM or INCH standards. What is the name of the tool that you do create a seat with after drilling the first hole, the same tool that has a guide rod at the beginning

What an amazing product. Used it several times with zero comebacks. I now am a Professor at my local university teaching Diesel Mechanics Technology. We have a two year program that graduates our students with an A.A.S in DMT. We have a dedicated pre-req class for all incoming students called Basic Shop skills. We teach things such as: drilling/tapping, metal work/fab layout, sharpening drill bits, basic and then precision measurement with calipers dial bore gauges, micrometers, and the list goes on. I would LOVE to add a section on using your system to demonstrate its abilities and how to properly use it. The trick is getting the department chairs to agree to the cost so we usually have to demo things and then create a write up/pitch. If you’d ever be willing to work with me, maybe donate a demo kit I can use to show why we should routinely purchase more for incoming students to use LET ME KNOW. I think this would be a great section to add to my basic shop skills class. Just a thought…..either way, great product and God bless!

I saw something like that on an old engine. Myself I would weld it after grinding away completely the crack and rounded its ends. This method into the video can work when there are not important pressure inside who tend to "stretch" the structure. It's not a secret but it's something more refined: Grind, round the ends, heat it up and see if the crack continue, if not, heat it up again on a larger surface, start welding "dots". Use the electrode welder with an electrode for cast iron, not the MIG, it can work with MIG but it's more risky. Hammer a bit each dot, clean, repeat, it takes more than you imagine. Smooth it a bit if necessary (if not don't bother). Let it cool down very very slowly, refractory sand or bricks for that. The important is to hammer the welded dots while they are still orange/red and to cool down it all slowly.
