Quick and easy wheel repair
AutoRepair work has never been so easy! HTS-2000 and HTS-528 high-strength brazing rods can repair aluminum and steel car, truck, RV, trailer and other wheels in no time. It’s easy, fast and durable.
You must have seen those alloy wheels that give it that classy and sporty look. Although these large diameter alloy wheels look good and improve performance, speed and road conditions cause a lot of wear over time. Cyclic stress is high and ventilation, disc fixing holes, flange and rim all take their toll. The result? Cracks, dents, bends, and scratches begin to show.
The problem is that getting these wheels replaced by the dealer and shops can be an expensive affair. The answer has come in the form of several niche repair shops employing our state-of-the-art, high-tech brazing rods. The repair is of superior quality and the result is durable and resistant.
Experts recommend our HTS-2000 for the repair of aluminum alloy wheels. It has high tensile strength, can easily penetrate impurities, has better elongation and low melting temperature. Plus, with this fluxless rod, you won’t need any machines. Plus, you get a weld that’s stronger than even the base metal. All you’ll need is a heat source (propane, butane, mapp, or oxyacetylene) and you’re ready to go.
For alloy steel wheel repair, the HTS-528 is your best choice. With built-in flux, this rod works well on steel, copper, nickel, cast iron, brass, and bronze. It’s great when it comes to melting two different metals. That’s why shop owners say, ‘Thanks to these welding rods, I’ve never had to turn a customer away.’
The HTS-2000 Brazing Rod makes gas welding a breeze. It’s no wonder then that machine repair shops have switched to using these rods instead of conventional Tig and heli-arc welding machines.
Traditionally, soldering of metals such as aluminum requires coating with flux to prevent oxygen from entering the hot metal so that oxides do not form that decrease the strength of the solder. The good thing is that the HTS-2000 does not need any flux for gas welding.
Plus, since this bar doesn’t require the use of a welding machine, it gives you the freedom of mobility. You can take the gas welding tank out into the field, or even on a truck or trailer. You won’t even need a power outlet. In addition, the team is self-sufficient and does not cost you much.
With the help of a gas torch, this rod gives the weld more tensile strength, elongation, low melting temperature, and even the ability to pass through impurities like corrosion, antifreeze, and oil. Ultimately, the weld area will become harder even than the base metal.
In addition, this second generation brazing rod can even be used in the manufacture of diesel engines, automobiles, bicycles, airplanes, ships, trucks, tractors, rivets, awnings, ladders, and gutters.
To start soldering, direct the flame towards the thickest item so it can absorb more heat. Protect the thinner element from heat by inserting the heavy-duty brazing rod as needed. The filter metal deposition rate can be controlled by pushing or pulling the rod from the tip of the gas flame.
Steel or aluminium, your wheels will love this duo of welding rods.
