I'm building up a new electric 20G kettle.
2" triclamp 5500watt heating element
https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B06XGNBC3J/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20
2" triclamp ferrule
https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B06XGNBC3J/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20
I've seen a few different ways to install these. Anyone have any experience if soldering will hold up ok on this bigger triclamp w/ the heating element installed? I haven't seen a lot of people with success stories.
I've seen more people soldering a spud ferrule instead of dimpling the hole and installing a straight ferrule like I ordered.
I picked up a 1->2" reducer that I could use to dimple the opening. What size hole should I make if I'm going to dimple? 1-7/8"? I've got access to a set of greenlee punches.
If this doesn't work out, I have a good welder who will do for free, but he's not around for 2 months.
Any advice appreciated!
Thanks!
