Isn't the pump body cast metal??? Welding to cast metal (whether iron or aluminum) is definitely harder to do than plate steel or aluminum. |

I wonder........ I know McMaster-Carr sells aluminum pipe fittings. I wonder if a good aluminum welder could weld a 1/2 female pipe union onto that cut off casting to get something similar to the Aussie casting? Yeah.....take a peek at this. https://www.mcmaster.com/aluminum-pipe- ... -fittings/ Just an idea. Roger |
