EXHAUST REPAIRS AND MODIFICATIONS

ALL PICTURES ARE CLICKABLE

Catalytic conver separated from manifold Repair welding to catalyitic converter and manifold

Above, we have a stainless catalytic converter that has broken off from the manifold. We re-aligned the parts and welded them together using a stainless TIG welding process.


Leaking catalytic converter Repair welding to catalyitic converter and manifold

Here we have a stainless catalytic converter that has cracked joints on the manifold. As with the example above, we repaired this with a stainless TIG welding process.


Cracked cast iron exhaust manifold Welding repair to cracked cast iron manifold

The above cast iron manifold has a crack running right through the middle of it. We ground out the crack and welded it back together. The repair weld was done with a stick welding process using a nickel electrode. We also performed pre and post heat treatment.


Broken cast iron manifold to be repaired Welding repair to broken cast iron manifold

Here we have a similar cast iron manifold that has a crack through one side. As with the above example, we ground out the crack and welded it back together. The cast iron repair weld was done with a stick welding process using a nickel electrode. We also performed pre and post heat treatment.


Damaged aluminium truck exhaust Welding repair to aluminium truck exhaust

Here we have an aluminium truck exhaust which has multiple wear areas caused  by rubbing against a harder material. We filled these areas with an aluminium TIG welding process. We ground down the welds to the original surface level.


BMW M6 exhaust manifold modification BMW M6 manifold flange modified

Above we have a stainless BMW M6 exhaust header which came in for a modification to the pipe mating surfaces. We machined off a small locating ridge on the factory part as requested.


Oxygen sensor to be installed in stainless manifold Oxygen sensor installed in stainless manifold

Again we have a stainless steel exhaust manifold which came in for a custom oxygen sensor mounting point. The customer required the sensor to be mounted in the centre of the runners. We welded a centre mounting point into the manifold to serve as the sensor attachment point. We threaded the hole for the sensor and mounted it.
