WELDING REPAIR

Here is an example of cost-effective repair to an existing structure.  This is the support frame for an emergency vehicle rear bumper.  One of the steel rectangular tubing members was badly rusted, but the rest of the structure was salvageable.  

Before and After photos show the rusted section replaced with a new steel rectangular tube. 

The repair cost was less than 15% of the cost of a new bumper.
