Welding a little bit of Inconel this week. This is an exhaust stack off of a PT 6 turbine. This one is off of a King Air 200. Pretty interesting little repair I’ve been doing more of the last year or so. They’re a bit challenging, as they are super thin, been through a ton of heat cycles, and sometimes the crack will run on you. Manufacturer guidance allows for repair given the crack is no longer than 5”, and they provide a welding procedure for the repair.
