i was trying to seal up an airtight hull when i discovered that hooking a vacume to the airtest fitting worked wonders by sucking the weld into the pesistant leak. Is this a common practice in tank welding?

Reply:yeah its never failed first try every time. i recently used this on a glycol system tested at 60 psi. I thaught 60 psi would be impossible but it worked. the first fillup was scary i expected a huge bomb yaknow.
Reply:The only thing that i see as a problem is that you may pull beeds of metal into the tank.keith The older the boys, the more expensive the TOYS!!Previous owned;Linde 300 Amp welderMiller Gas drv welder, Tumbstone,Dayton Miller ac to dc converter,High frequency unitLongevity LS60PCurrrently owned;Longevity WeldAll 200PI |
