Hi I do a fair bit of cutting and grinding aswell as welding I'm after a mask that will do all and will fit under my esab sentinel a50 I don't really want to go down the line of an air fed welding mask as I don't like grinding with a mask and would rather use googles. I've looked and can't find...
Hi Pete
Yea it's the headstock where the spindle is driven from. Yea it will Harrison/600 group part was hoping to find one breaking as I'm not 100% sure what has caused it to break teeth and hesitant to spend the money on a complete gear cluster for it to do it again as I was only screw...

Hey I have been given a cast iron sump to weld the engine blew and put a rod through the sump and they cannot be got. I have welded the cracks with a cast rod and worked well but there was a 4 inch hole and the bits couldn't be found so I cut a piece of mild steel and set it in and welded it...

Hey after a new mask like the look of the Speedglas 9100V FX but out of my budget I like the idea of lifting the front and having a clear lens for grinding as I don't weld for long periods all short welds and a fair bit of grinding and cutting. Any help appreciated thanks.
Below is the link of...
Thanks for the replys I have been welding them cold as its a large casting it would be hard to heat properly and I'd rather not have to heat it I have been getting away with it as the bolts be taken off when I'm finished but I'd rather a stronger weld as I fear them breaking off. It would only...
Hey sorry if this has been asked I've searched with no luck. I need to weld bolts to cast I was using dissimilar rods which were oerlinkin 312 they got the job done but broke off easily taking the piece of cast with it. I don't think they were the right rod for the job so can anyone recommend a...
Hey after some help I need to cut out 4 3/4 roll pins out of a job and thought cutting rods or gouging rods would be best I dont have a lead to run air so cant go that route can anyone recommend a rod to do this I have 300amps from a diesel genset. All help appreciated.
Not much in the line of welding shops round here just auto parts places that sell welders and tools and keep the basics likes tips rods and wire. I can find m8 ones which are 35 long that I could re thread but if I shortened them I would loose the taper and the diameter at the front then could...
Cheers for the reply yea tweco is bigger and also a male tread I need a female thread. It's off an Elsa rotary welding lead. I can get them from them but they are very expensive and do not last they are made in two pieces and separate after they get abit of heat. I have a lathe but wouldn't be...

Thanks for that I havnt had a chance to look at it but I will take the torch socket off again and check everything the earth clamp had seen better days and I have replaced it. I assume you can buy a new torch socket?
Thanks very much that saves me a phone call I usually turn the gas down full on the regulator and just up a fraction u can still hear it but not as much made the mistake of turning it into the MIG range on the reg when I first got it and emptied a bottle in no time lol.
Yea that's exactly what I bought it for I have a line boring machine aswell but have ended up doing alot of maintenance work with it aswell. Yea I was told 10kva to be comfortable with running the welder and line boring machine as the welder would only be about half way. I have a question for...
Cheers for the reply it's got to the stage it doesn't matter on amps I was welding the other nite and only done a few welds and the lead was warm where it screws on. It didn't actually melt the wire it melted were the pin is bonded into the lead I didn't catch it on an took the lead of to feed...
