Repairing Feser Rads
 

I hacve a Feser quad and a Feser dual that have stress fractures around the fittings, and are thus.. leaking :ohcrap:

May be garbage, but, am curious of what way would be best, if any, to seal the fractures? Thinking about some sort of epoxy, but ????

any ideas?

I mean, man, these things are irreplaceable :ohcrap:

thinking 90 degree fittings werent't the best idea on these thin skinned rads :thumbdown:

jb wled ?

you can try epoxy, sounds like it will work on paper ..........;)


brazing them would be a better solution though , but a PITA

you have to sand them back down to bare metal first to get the rods to stick

using a heavy silver content rod would help reduce heat but they are expensive bastards

Good luck bro

I have one for sale if you can't get it fixed up

I still have another quad I'm not using, just a bitch to throw them away :wtfsign:

I have some heavy silver epoxy used to cold solder, actually used it to fix a video card, thinking that might work?

It's worth a shot bro ......... :thumbsup:

pics FTW

of what? the vid card? or the rad ? :laughing:

Both ............ :blink:

worked like a charm on the vid card, glued a cap back into place and it came back to life :thumbsup: not sure about fixin the rad though ??

:rofl:

You want pics of a rad that's leaking? won't leak unless under pressure, so, nope :laughing:
