ALLOY REPAIR DECISION

Welding is one stage of a larger repair decision

The wheel must be assessed for crack position, length, previous repairs, deformation and missing material. Damage around spokes, mounting faces or multiple structural areas may be unsuitable for a mobile weld.

A tyre may need removing before cleaning, preparation and welding. The vehicle must stand on firm, level ground with enough room for equipment. Severe bends or finish restoration may require workshop-based services.

REAL REPAIR FACTORS

What matters for mobile alloy welding

01

Send both wheel faces

Photograph the outer face, inner rim and close-up damage.

02

Mark the leak area

Soap bubbles or a confirmed crack location helps initial assessment.

03

Disclose earlier repairs

Previous welds can change heat behaviour and suitability.

04

Separate bends from cracks

A weld does not straighten a badly distorted wheel.

05

Tyre condition matters

Running flat can damage the tyre even after the wheel is repaired.

06

Final leak check

The repaired assembly should be checked for sealing before use.

MOBILE ALLOY WELDING FAQS

Clear answers before repair

Can every cracked alloy be welded?

No. Crack position, extent, deformation, wheel construction and previous repairs determine suitability.

Can welding straighten a bent wheel?

No. Straightening or refurbishment may require separate specialist equipment.

Do you remove the tyre first?

Repair requirements vary, but safe preparation commonly requires access to the damaged area and may require tyre removal.

Can the work be done anywhere?

No. The vehicle needs safe hard standing and sufficient room for equipment.
