Evening all, I've just broken the wheel dish (center) on my 7710. This has the older 8 bolt style flange wheels. This is actually the second one I've busted now. The other one broke about a year ago. These centers seem to have a few points of carbon to them, but they're not extremly hard. Certainly, to some degree a spring steel. With that said, I've had no luck welding them. I tried a 7018 on the first one, and now a Sodel 330 on the second center. The result was the same for both, with the center cracking again within 1 hour's service. These cracks were well beveled out, and welded from one side, but the new cracks seldom follow the old. New cracks seem to develop across the weld bead, at random. The original cracks radiate outwards from the wheel nuts.
I'm just curious if anyone out there has had experience with welding these centers, and if so, what kind of success you've had.
I have a new wheel on order. I'm just tring to get a few more days from this, as it may be Friday or more likely Monday before I can get the parts, and I need the tractor. Curiously awaiting your ideas....
