Zinc anodes are used to protect alu., iron, copper,
& brass on boats in salt water. They come in MANY
shapes & sizes. Many with threads for mounting.
Everything needs to be grounded/bonded for proper
protection. Good Luck!
One thing that you don't need to be stupid to do
is to fill a plastic fuel can that has been sliding
around in a bed liner, without removing it from the
truck. Bed liners now come with a warning, but what
about when someone purchases a used truck?
I agree with pre-heating and full welding as posted
above, but it sounds as if these teeth may need to
be replaced periodicly?
One solution may be to roll mild steel to form a
collar of sufficient width (say 7"), weld it to
the pipe, then weld your 2.5" wide collars to it.
You may need...
Any crank, cam, or ellipse will not yeild a consistent
linear movement per. degree of rotation. A screw for
this application would need a pitch of 51.42857142875...
mm., an infinitive number.
The cross member, drive shaft, & rear gears need to be
changed. The shifter cable & kickdown cables need to
be slightly modified. The exaust hanger @ the cat will
not fit but can be fudged. You'll need to find a vacuum
sorce for the modulator. You may need to drill to mount
the cross member...
In order to magnetize screw drivers I simply coil
12 gage wire down the length, then momentarily
short the ends of the wire across a 12v automotive
battery. You need DC to do this & the wire WILL
get hot & melt if connected for too long. I mearly
scratch it on the battery terminals.
With gears or sprockets, simply count the teeth
of each gear, then devide. A 10 tooth gear driving
a 60 tooth gear wil have a ratio of 6:1. With pullys
the pitch diameter must be found & used. If your
assembly is not accessible, you can rotate the assy.
and count the # of turns of the input...
I think that the term you are looking for is helix,
ie. helical gear. The helical gear operates more
quietly than a straight cut gear, but produces
lateral forces or 'thrust'.
Womble, rod is correct, get the scrapers as close to
the rotating assy. as you can. Slice, fit & form to
diameter of the counter weights & throws. The edges
should be intrude about 15% into the dia of the rods
throw, 20% on the counter weights, & 50% to the main
caps. Bolt it to the mains if you...
I've tried gapless rings too, with the same results
as posted here. Great cranking pressure & great on
a leak down test, but more blowby under operation.
I believe this is because air behind the ring needs
to breathe, especialy with tight groove clearances.
I've stoped gaping rings to the...
In the marine trades we commonly use stainless
to fasten alu. The grade of stainless is most
important. NICU is the way to go. Alu. by itself
will show electrolsis because of impurities, and
bonding only helps. Any coatings which don't
conduct may lessen the bonding action of the
joint. The...
