Thread: welding Stainless

Hi, I need a couple small spot welds made on some SS panel steel.

Is there anyone near me (Helensville) who could please help?
Happy to trade some beers etc for your time.


Please mention or PM me if you can help.
Cheers, 40mm

I’m in waipu, probably someone closer but happy to help

Thanks @Gusto.

Hope I don't get that desperate to drive down that far!

Good Man!

How about riv nuts

I'm no pro welder but for what you want to do you can probably get away with standard mig I've used it on stainless before

Yeah that is my last resort.
But I have a couple things I want spotted and one is nice and shiny, so I want to keep it like that!

And Rivnuts wont work.
But the guy who invented them should be knighted.

Are you intending to weld nuts on to use a bolt to tighten, like a regular hose clamp?
