Rolling & Welding 304 Grade Stainless Sheet For Aftermarket Motorcycle Silencers - Fuel Exhausts

- Part of our Fuel Friday series, today we show how we roll and weld the stainless steel sheet for our exhaust bodies.
Ever wondered how your aftermarket exhaust silencer body is made? Read on as we tell all about the way we produce our exhaust sleeves...
Every stainless (and titanium) blank is sheared to the appropriate calculated size that we require to ensure a perfect fit on our end caps.
Once the blanks arrive at our workshop, they are checked to ensure a square cut and for size accuracy.
Each blank is then cleaned on both sides with evaporating spirit before slicing the protective polycoating from each edge. This is so that there is raw material on view to weld. The edges of the blank which will be welded together, ie. the weld prep area, are also cleaned to ensure no contamination enters the weld area. When you have hundreds to do, this part of the job is monotonous and can take quite a while.
Once prepped, the blanks are put through our manual rollers. Many of the larger aftermarket motorcycle exhaust brands have all singing, all dancing, fancy automated machines to roll their tubes. Not us... it is pure hard manual graft here! With the help of the rollers, of course!
Our blanks are now tubes! Each tube is then tack welded at each end to make it easier to position and to prevent blow out during the seam welding process.
The tube is manually fed into our seam welding machine where it is butt welded autogenously (this is a fusion weld without any filler material). The machine leaves a perfectly straight continuous seam weld from one end to the other and the weld has 100% penetration.
We are UK manufacturers of aftermarket motorcycle exhausts and believe strongly in supporting British manufacture and buying in the UK.

Thoroughly enjoyed that and as a owner of two Fuel cans I can say I bloody love them
Awesome!! Thanks for the comment. 😎
Quite the nice mechanised TIG jig you have there! I was watching this video thinking you were going to manually do autogenous welds on all of those sleeves!
@EarlOfEasycore haha, thank you! ;-)
Bespoke British engineering at its very best. Thankyou.
@Jon Wilmot thank you, we are pleased you enjoyed it! :-)
Ive watched them back to back. I think my wife and kids moved out during the 3rd one but im not sure !
@@jonwilmot5331 haha you are not the only person... A few subscribers have messaged to say they have lost the best part of a day binge watching our Fuel Friday series! ;-)
Excellent stuff.
Thank you 😊
hi! Great work!
Simply wow!
Glad you enjoyed the video! 👍🏻
Great watching your fuel Friday I’ve more or less done everything you’ve shown me on here great to watch.
I used to work at a company called thermosel expansion units
Ps I’ve ordered one of your cans
Ahhh great to hear @Neil Fields. We love engineering here! Got your order and will be despatching next week. Thanks very much. ;-)
Hi ! Great work ! Would love to see how you guys make End caps or oval pipes
Video's coming weekly so keep an eye out. :-)
💜💜💜💜
Glad you are enjoying all our videos. :-)
.....come ti posso contattare
Great videos and skill set.👍
Do you repair other makes?
Cheers
Thank you for your comment. Unfortunately we do not repair or repack other exhaust brands, sorry.
Ну ты фокусник.
....buongiorno, posso avere due db killer x ktm 1190 , da montare su marmitta Akrapovic.grazie
We manufacture a range of db killers but they are not suitable for all exhausts. If you want to discuss further, please email info@fuelexhausts.com and we can move forward from there. Thank you.
Produciamo una gamma di db killer ma non sono adatti a tutti gli scarichi. Se vuoi discutere ulteriormente, invia un'e-mail a info@fuelexhausts.com e possiamo andare avanti da lì. Grazie.
A how not to weld video for Definite!!
where did you gate it Rolling Machine?
@Amel Yeman can't remember, sorry. We have had them for years. ;-)
