Over 50 Years of Cast Iron Repair Experience


The methods we use have their roots in 50 continuous years of cast iron repair experience within the same family. This expertise, combined with pride in workmanship, forms the basis of the excellent reputation Diesel Cast Welding has earned in the field of casting repair.

Throughout the history of cast iron repair, attempts have been made to introduce a variety of new techniques into the marketplace. Efforts to popularize such techniques have led to claims that they are technologically advanced, inexpensive and require very little expertise. Each of these techniques has usually enjoyed a limited amount of success for a specific type of repair.

Such success is usually followed by attempts to use the methods in areas of casting repair beyond their limited capability. This, in turn, has led to unsatisfactory repairs that have ranged from a mere nuisance to costly equipment failures.

Only one method of repair has withstood the test of time and proven itself consistently effective in all areas of cylinder block repair. This method requires the slow preheating of the entire cylinder block to a temperature of about 1000° F.
