Re: PLUG weld aluminum question

it's a blind hole
what do you mean "get the arc in the hole to clean"?

how about melting the rod? the welding rod....
or maybe some special rods for brazing

Re: PLUG weld aluminum question

ok excellent and how would you do it?
have a piece inside the hole first then weld? or just fill up with rod?
