AME - Cast Iron Repair

http://www.arizonamechanicalengineering.com/Cast%20Iron%20Repair.htm

AMEs Chief Mechanical Officer (and CEO), David Griner, had the great fortune to have learned how to braze and weld iron castings from a man who started welding in 1919! There are two methods of “torch repair”, one using bronze filler material, the other using a cast iron rod. We can conduct electric repairs but prefer the torch method. Please contact this office to discuss your particular problem, we really like this work! Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspection. Solid Fuel Combustion Engineering.
