Hello and good day..
I have a job that will require a 3/4 X 3/4 X 2 1/2 inch chunk of 416 stainless. I have searched the world VIA the internet and cant seem to find a chunk that size. So my question is this.. :les:
Can 416 stainless be forge welded??
What I was thinking is that I would use a 1"X3/8"x4" pieces and forge weld 3 of them together.. If this is a possibility.. I figured Now that I have a hydro press.. I can get the size down to something close to what I want and then surface it.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated..
