Ultimate Guide to Repairing Aluminum Boat Damage: Seams, Tears & Holes with Super Alloy 5!

The seam that runs down this aluminum boat has separated and is leaking badly. To make the repair, we use Super Alloy 5 and an oxyacetylene torch to seal the area that had been unsuccessfully patched with epoxy. http://MuggyWeld.com Super Alloy 5 rod and flux and an oxyacetylene torch make easy work of the seam. YOU CANNOT USE PROPANE (WITHOUT OXYGEN) ON ALUMINUM BOATS, THE PARENT METAL WILL NOT GET HOT ENOUGH DUE TO THE LARGE MASS OF ALUMINUM. Super Alloy 5 works great on a number of common problems that occur to aluminum boats such as cracks, splits, holes, thinly worn areas caused by dragging on rocks and gravel. Super Alloy 5 will also work on aluminum pontoon boats, airboats, canoes, rafts, props, and yes even your cast aluminum outboard motors The flux will eliminate contaminates in the cast (TIG and MIG welding usually fall short in this area) Clean the flux off of the rod before placing it back into the PVC tube. Super Alloy 5 can be polished after making the repair. #FixingAluminumBoatSeams #AluminumBoatWelding #AluminumBoatRepair #DIYBoatWelding 🔔 If you found this video helpful, subscribe for more practical metal repair tutorials.
