Repair keg Atlanta

[dave3_14159]

A crack has started near top of the keg. Can be fixed relative to replacing it? If so, does anyone know a place in Atlanta to get one fixed?

I have experience in the petrochemical custom fabrication field. If anyone cameto my shop wanting to make that repair I would advise that they destroy it. While a repair can be made it seems like that keg has been subjected to more pressure than is should have at some point and there my be other areas of stress. On the other hand the repair would probably cost nearly the cost of replacement.

I think i see the crack, is it in the steel just outside the lid seal?

This will have to be TIG welded, it's not worth trying to fix. At least you can get some parts off this for spares.

Thanks, I was concerned other cracks, etc may be waiting to show later on.

Those parts are easily available at any local home repairing shops in Atlanta. Even the cracks are easy to repair, you need to add welding metals on it.

Stop drill it on each end, ( #21 drill bit), have it Tig welded, and save it for a fermenter or conditioning tank.

Or message me and make me a NICE deal on it..........I'm in Atlanta, on the south side.
