RE: Cols welding
Is that OK to use while the tanks are on service??
Is it allowed according to standards???
RE: Cols welding
At this point, cold welding is more a scientific curiosity than an industry practice.
It is done in laboratories not in the field where the field conditions will affect the process.

some tanks'shells are damaged ( corrosion , bullets ...) ,the tanks are in service and we have to repair the damaged shell !!!!!
I read about a material ( paste ) that can be but on the hole and it fill the hole..I don't know where or how to get it
and the more important is it approved according to the standards

RE: Cols welding
It's just a generic epoxy glue, and isn't intended for tanks or anything. The reason I mentioned it is in the event the name was causing confusion. You'd likely have similar products of different brands available locally.
One temporary patch I've heard of for bullet holes is to take a self-tapping screw the right size, put a rubber washer on it, and put it in the hole. That assumes you don't have a floating roof seal going past the area. I haven't tried this myself, so no guarantees as to effectiveness. For a fuel tank, you'd want to make sure the washer was compatible with the product.

What if the tank is empty and clean ..What is the best quick procedure to repair the shells ?
