Aaron, there are a few different types of pins,, tapered, barbed, threaded, break-off, grind off, etc.. Some are for straight cracks, some are for pressure retaining areas, some will actually pull the crack sides together due to reverse barbs... Obviously the ones that work the best for pressure areas are the most difficult to work with..

~Tell us what are you trying to stitch weld & we will try to point you to the company that sells what you need..

Boy i haven't heard that in years. When a kid, I knew a guy that had a cracked head. He took it to someplace and if I recall right, they drilled holes the lenght of the crack, put in the pins and then heated the whole head melting the pins into the crack. Then the head was machined and you couldn't tell where the crack was. Saw the crack before and saw it afterwards. And it held. I recall it being called "pin and sewing a crack". Thats the only one I ever recall ever hearing done.

I saw an old kit that had bolts you drill and tap
coat screws with some sealer screw in saw off then overlap and keep going it also came with an air operated peening tool.I never saw it in use.

Aaron,
Try Goodson at 1-800-533-8010 - they sell engine rebuilding supplies and I think I saw pins in their catalog.

Thanks For all the replys. I will give them a try and see what they have. I am working on a 50 with a crack in the Axle houseing. The crack only seeps a little bit but i figured if im gonna replace it I should at least try some of those pins. If it dont work im still only out the cost for the pins and the labor which is free. I still use this tractor to haul round bales with and havent had any bit of trouble its just sometimes I worry about it. Im thinking for this crack the barbed pins would work best since I want to pull it all together. I heard these pins work real good and are really strong. I also heard they are easy to use but I have never used them. Thanks Again

Aaron
