Problems mig welding heavy equipment

Not quite sure what you are saying? It broke because it was mig welded? Lack of penetration on the ends? If so I wouldn't blame the process, more the operator or whoever set up the operation. I would have no problem welding this with dual shield or inner shield, new or repair. Even bare wire mig with the right size wire.
Having said that I'm sure you will make it right so it lasts many years.MM250

Originally posted by Electric4Life View Posthot and fast is production friendly but doesn't necessarily equate to adequate penetration. Cold lap doesn't have to be visible to be an issue. I love seeing those pretty welds pull clean off the surface of an adjoining part. Keeps the fear in me during my repairs.
Me too, that is why I stick weld all those type of repairs on my stuff!
