    Thanks for repairing my pulley for me! Looks like a good repair should hold up on this old tractor that's gonna be a parade queen. I'll let you know how she holds up when I get the engine back together and running. I'm glad we still have people with your skills in the world. I don't have the skills or the equitment to have attempted this.

      Just a question. Given the simple nature of this pulley, why not just slap a hunk of steel into the lathe and turn a new copy? In fact, for making the old girl pretty, why not in bronze that you could then polish? Just asking.

    I have a 1950 Minneapols-Moline ZAU. The next generation after the ZTU, the ZTU tractors were built from 1936 - 1948.
    Without a machine shop it is getting very difficult to keep these old tractors running. Last year I had to build up the fins and re-machine the impeller and make a water pump seal. TIG brazing and machining like this pulley. Parts are no longer available. There are several antique tractor collectors working to keep after market parts available but making your own parts is part of the fun..... I still use my ZAU to run the baler !

      Why not run a shaft (even of wood) though the pulley to hold it fast, then use something like the Babbit daming material to old the chip?

    I thought you had it Keith but you had to put one more pass on the edge of the flange and darn if it didn't do exactly what you did not want, Slump. So hard to build up a thin flange like that without having a slump, get it hot enough to flow and instantly the whole thing decides to flow. Very touchy to do. Great job Keith, should work fine but you never know until it gets used in service. Should be no real pressure on the flange, I suspect that was broken off trying to remove it from the water pump with a puller. Not the first and won't be the last to meet that fate. Don't ask me how I know. flanges are safe from me now as in my 80's I'm decades past my last water pump pulling.

    I probably would have tried to do a capillary joint on that one. Blast the joint to make sure its clean. Apply flux to the fracture surfaces. Only apply bronze to one side and have the heat draw it accros the joint. On small parts with a non deformed fracture surface you can get a very strong joint.

      I did wonder whether this type of repair was possible using brazing on cast like this, will keep that in mind for future use. :)
      I was wondering if you could use flame brazing to set the first layer, then build it up using tig from there out as that is what I would have tried I think. Anything to try and control that material with some meaning.

    • @millwrightrick1

  • @bryanebel8448
    @bryanebel8448 5 месяцев назад

    Best advice I ever got about TIG brazing cast iron = Set to AC and [bronze braze] weld as though you are set to DC neg with a plain steel filler. Tack the outside corners to hold the part and fill away. Minimizes heat in the part and cleans as you go.

  • @TgWags69
    @TgWags69 5 месяцев назад +3

    High temperature 30 or 40% Silver solder (Braze) would be a much better process for this repair. It is just as strong. The silver braze has the advantage of whetting into the joint and crating a near invisible repair. It is a very often overlooked option for cast iron repair. Regular brazing is great but it does not whet down into the joint and requires grinding out a weld prep for a full penetration joint.

    Been there, done that. Best way to put the chip back in is just lay it in place and make sure you don’t stick the rod to it as you flow the bronze into the joint. Not having a lathe at the time, I’ve just used a side grinder to smooth them up and they run fine.

    Great job repairing the rare pulley. The problem you had with the tig was the moisture and oils in the pores of the cast iron. If you heated up the whole pulley slowly, then wedded it still hot, it would have been fine. But brazing it was also a good choice sense it's not under a lot of stress or rpm. Great video, and have a happy 4th of July.

    1. loved this.
    2. I have an idea for holding the piece in place, & I’d like to know what y’all think…
    Clay. Lay a 1/2” thick slab of clay on a fire-brick big enough to completely surround the pulley by 1/2” all the way around. Press the pulley & piece into the clay like you’re making a partial mold for casting. Then have the first firing done in a kiln.
    Then set it in the ceramic “negative” so it’s held in place but not under vise-grip pressure.
    Braze the inside.
    Then, hopefully, it’d be possible to gently braze the outside crack without getting the inside too hot & the prior bronze running out.
    Could that work?

    A small box filled with sand.........preferably, foundry sand.
    Fit the broken piece into place and carefully lay and press the two pieces gently into the sand leaving the inside of the pulley groove exposed for brazing.
    Heat with a low pressure oxy/acetylene flame that is neutral or slightly carburizing. Keep the bulk of the flame directed at the large pulley component. When the base material of the larger part begins to turn red bring the brazing rod into the flame and allow it to touch only the large part as it melts and then move the flame slightly toward the broken piece so the braze will flow over to it. Using this technique, continue until you get braze deposited the length of the crack. Next turn the entire pulley over so the opposite side is facing up and work the pulley into the sand so that sand fills up the entire belt groove, leaving only the unbrazed face exposed. Work it with the torch exactly like was done for the other side.
    The sand provides just enough support to keep everything in place until the brazing bond is established and also keeps the small piece from suffering from runaway high heating by giving it just the right heat sink action.

    I did wonder if you could hold the broken piece in with a jubilee clip, so it was evenly clamped. You could even braze the clip to the pulley and cut grind or turn off the clip after the brazing is done. Maybe if a similar job turns up in future...

    I wondered even before you brought out the vice grip clamp if a hose clamp around the whole circumference of the pulley would work. Seeing a video doesn't really give me a good idea of whether you could do that without blocking access to the inside to braze it, but I think the clamp force distributed around the entire circumference of the pulley and the broken piece might have worked better when the piece started expanding with the heat. Definitely a clamping challenge with the small internal access clearance. Just rebuilding and turning completely eliminated the clamping difficulty, and the part would have needed to be turned anyway, so no real increase in effort.

    Keith, Hindsight is 20/20 and as always I've got plenty.
    Let's start with an appropriate size plate, say 8"×8"×3/8". Weld an appropriate size piece of all-thread in the center as a hold-down. You could use a couple of stop-nuts to raise the pully for ventilation. Next, set the broken piece in place. You could tack it in place and fine-tune it with a hammer or clamp. Also, you might try heating the whole pulley. Theheating pulley itself is acting like a heat
    sink.
    Out of curiosity is that a metric or JIS pulley?

    Heh. I had an oddball pulley off a table saw… a combination v-belt on one end and micro-v on the other, with a bearing journal on the V-belt side… where the two pulley types came together, because of the bearing journal, there was minimal material left. After a few years, the vibration caused to separate. In a desperate hail-mary attempt, (mfg. out of business, and while their taiwan partner still makes near identical saws for other marks, this part was pure unobtanium) I glued it back together using JB Weld, intending to drill and tap some some small holes for re-enforcing bolts. As you can imagine, that was a complete disaster, and I walked cap-in-hand to a local machine shop that I’d done much earth-moving construction for. They replicated my part for less than what a local 3D Print On Demand outfit wanted to charge.
    So now I have a nice replacement pulley made of steel instead of pot-metal. Only downside is I did have to do some turning on my own, as they replicated my bed of epoxy in the bottom of the large v-belt groove… Lesson learned: Always give your machinist a drawing. :)

    Let's see, an old casting that had oil soaked for over 60 years and probably hadn't been that hot since it was cast. Nice job.

    Looks like it broke from a pulley puller.

      Yep, not enough heat or looby-dooby

    I am curios, would shining a strobe light onto the part dialed in so the part looked still make it easier to mill. I am not a machinist jist like watching the vids. Enjoy your content

    It's most likely the clamp was loosening up and falling off each time because of the heat changing the dimension of the pulley: it was no longer tight.

    I would so geek out if I knew the before and after diameter was.
    The water pump now has a very slightly lower RPM with slightly higher amount of torque.

    Wondering about the absence of using “ evaporust” on your projects?

    If the part needs to be remade... Rather than casting or steel would dura-bar be the cost effective solution? If your viewer wants it remade I volunteer to make it. He provides the dura-bar.

    Could you spot weld the piece in place and then braze it? Then you wouldn't need to clamp it during the brazing.
