Looking at getting my Wellers refurbed professionally in the new year, mine have some kerbing damage, can they weld new material onto steel wheels? I thought it was only Alloy they could weld onto?

    Charlie I mean they weld Alluminium on as tig welding (well they do on this local shop im looking at) so I was asking can they weld Allu onto steel? Doesn't mention anything about refurbing steel wheels. And Artful Dodger, that's what I'm hoping for! I don't think doing it myself would come up half as good as if I took it to somewhere professional!

    no its steel on steel and alloy on alloy, The 2 don't adhere to each other. steel can be tig welded. Its just a different way of melting it
