    If you coat your threads with spatter gel prior to welding, they will stay clean and the bolt will come right out. No worries about cleaning things up later. Super cool tip, I like it.

  • @waynec369
    @waynec369 10 місяців тому +2

    No, the reason the fasteners you were using seize is the fact they are galvanized/zinc plated. The zinc melts at a much lower temp than steel, thus basically soldering (not soddering) the bolt inside the nut. If you don't have plain steel hardware, you can give the galvanized/zinc plated fasteners a dunk in some muriatic acid (hydrochloric acid) to get rid of the zinc. When the fizz stops, the fastener has been stripped. The zinc also causes weld porosity. So, there's another really cool tip you can use.

    Don't waste your time cleaning the interior seam weld. Just index it so that's the piece you cut out, to make it a clamp. Also, coat your through bolt with hi-temp anti-seize, before welding, and you won't have issues removing it post-weld.

    • @CafeRacerGarage
      @CafeRacerGarage  11 місяців тому

      Hey mate, I’m not in Tiley sure if I understand the first part about indexing, however I feel a small part like this using anti-seize may contaminate the weld whilst you’re trying to weld it if you know what I mean. It’s a great tip though, and I’ll definitely give it a shot.

    • @tomb816
      @tomb816 11 місяців тому

      @@CafeRacerGarage You ground the internal weld seam, so it wouldn't cause an issue. However, you later cut a portion of the tube/pipe so that it may facilitate a clamping force. Just make sure the weld seam is between the two nuts, before welding, and it'd be the part you cut out. So, no need to bother filing or sanding the weld seam away.
      The anti-seize shouldn't contaminate, so long as you don't get it into the weld.
