Slightly crude and probably not recommended. But I had a shered bolt on a cylinder head. Gave it a bit of heat, then gave the bolt a couple of good tonks with a hammer and then simply undid it with a pair of mole grips.

i also have a snapped stuf in my turbo, i do not wish to take the turbo apart though as it is in good working order still. but i think ill have to, it sheerd below the surface as well. i thought about drilling a hole through and then tapping a anti clockwise thread in the middle but im not sure you can do that lol Drives

I just bought some ultra high temp anti-sieze paste from a turbo place, anyone used it ? question is-- is it any good?

is that the Exh housing i flogged you? No Joe, it's one that came with the other bit's I've just got off eBay !!! I seem to be collecting parts at the moment !!! Finally got all three studs out after 2 ??? (lost track of time) hours. All three needed drilling in the end, I managed to weld nuts on top of the two longer ones but one sheared the stud below the flange immediately and the other after three turns out .... ![]() ![]()

Hi, You need heat and lots of it
Red and Black is the way forward when working on the exh side of turbos Cheers, Gavin :) Yep, every other time I've been here the sheer heat from welding the nut on top of the broken stud has done the trick, ie undo it while it's still glowing red...... This time the welds failed every time (and the stud kept getting shorter) and, from the weld failures, it looked like the stud material is very high alloy (not a good weld to mild steel MIG wire).

Not for these broken studs but to free the bolts in the centre section of the turbo (core to exhaust housing) I did essentially the same, but with an air chisel... Round blunt ended chisel on top of the six bolt heads for a few seconds and it broke away all the corrosion and those six all undid without drilling.... Schrödinger's cat - so which one am I ??? |

Military grade" but from my experience it is only the metal based lubricants that actaully prevent seizing at high temperatures... Copper based ones are most obvious (ie, brakes) but I use Nickel based ones myself, much better IMHO but harder to come by. The threads I've just recovered in my turbo were by using nickel based lubricant for drilling out the broken bits and re-tapping the threads. Everyone will have their own opinion though :):):) Schrödinger's cat - so which one am I ??? |

I looked around for non-metallic compounds and it seems that there are different types of metal. All types have a high temp version, nickel and non-metallic seem to go highest and and some are best for use with steels some with alloys. The non-metallic ones seem to be suitable for all types of material. Seems that they can be just as good but are a bit more expensive.

For some reason "nuclear grade" kept popping up betcha that grade works!! Now that's strange, it seems to say that on my tin :):):) Seriously though, the "Nuclear Grade" is more to do with what they aren't allowed to put in it rather than the base material (nickel in this case). There are a few other "additives" in normal high temperature lubricants but are totally banned in nuclear applications just in case they get somewhere other than the thread they are lubricating.
