Diesel Exhaust Manifold Repair with 72 & 77

Watch the Video Clip of this repair here

This cast iron manifold from a Cummins diesel truck was headed for the junk pile because the shop did not have a cast iron welding rod to repair it. At a cost of $400 to replace, our 77 and 72 rods were an inexpensive alternative.





We started by beveling out the crack to prepare the cast iron. We used the 72 on this piece first, because the cast iron was heat affected and the 72 anchors into the affected cast iron. We followed up with the 77 to finish the weld.





With just one pass of each rod, the repair was made for around $10. The shop owner had 3 more manifolds on his junk pile that can now be repaired instead of trashed, saving his customer money and time waiting for a new part.
