When cracks develop in castings of mechanical equipment, metal stitching and metal locking deliver the most effective and reliable repair solution. Engine blocks and turbine casings use heavy castings in mechanical equipment, making these cold repair methods especially suitable for restoring strength and integrity. It is quite difficult to replace them due to cost, time factors and interchangeability issues.

The repair of cracks by metal stitching and metal locking is a cold process. The metal stitching and metal locking process generates no heat and maintains the original profile of the component. When cracks develop in engine block housings, metal locking combined with metal stitching provides a highly recommended repair solution because it prevents distortion of the housing centerline.
