No. It is only efficient up to 500degrees Fahrenheit and most of the exhaust system will normally get hotter than that. You need proprietary exhaust repair material or a professional weld.
by having a exhaust shop weld on a y pipe then just run the dual pipes out the back
I had the same problem with mine. There is a metal piece in side of the exhaust pipe that can break loose and resonate (vibrate) with reving of the engine. The cheap and easy fix is to torch a small hole in the exhaust pipe and then weld the loose metal piece to wall of the exhaust pipe then weld the hole shut. Mines been good since. Please post if this is not the problem.
It is the only type of weld you can make to seal this type of joint. There are flange ends that can be welded onto pipe with a butt weld, but sockets and slip-ons must be fillet welded.
there are 3 types of welded joint 1-butt weld butt weld is the type which need usually 4 mm clearance between the 2 edge of pipe or plate you want to weld it. 2-socket weld 3-seal weld
no because there is nostructural value in a seal weld, its main purpose is to seal
The seal weld in a structure is used a weld used for tightness. Specifically this type of weld is used for holding in liquids or gaseous materials.
Gi weld not recommended . Because of gi coationg will be spoiled out . Puncture will be occur on the pipe weld .
Very likely to leak, zinc in the GI pipe will be contaiminating the weld and thus you cannot get a good weld.
the best thing for a swamp cooler leak, is a copper pipe, or plumbing sealant, its similar to jb weld, only its waterproof, and made for leaks.
A weldolet is a fitting you weld on a (run) pipe, and then butt weld a branch pipe to it. A tredolet is a fitting you weld on a (run) pipe, and then screw a threaded branch pipe to it. Some people call this a threadolet A sockolet is a fitting you weld on a (run) pipe, and then socket weld a branch pipe to it. A nipolet is the same as a weldolet or thredolet but has an elongated branch connection. You have to specify if it's a welded or threaded nipolet.
maybe u could try and use some copper tubing you could cut the flange off your old pipe and weld it to your homade pipe. make a manifold by tracing the stock pipe and then trace it on some 1/8in steel and cut it out with a jigsaw, tourch, plazmacutter or what ever you have then drill holes for the bolts. mount that on the engine then find yourself a pice of tubeing that fits the manifold and tack weld it on, take it off the engine then fully weld it. or gut the stock pipe and drill out the outlet to have a tuned exhaust pipe make your pipe bolt it on, use house paint and paint your exhaust(it dousn't matter of the colour trust me) ... wait until dry and start your bike there will be a nice ring burnt off your exhaust, mark and cut there ...now take off all the paint and now you have a preformanced tuned exhaust
If the pipe is in good enough shape you can weld over the hole, BUT If there is one small hole rusted in the system it is a good sign the pipe is rotted. There will be many other holes soon. There are probably more holes than you know about. You will probably have to have an exhaust shop put in a new pipe for you.
