Cast Iron Cylinder Head Repair by RA Power Solutions

Cracks in a cast iron cylinder head can develop around valve seats, cooling passages, bolt holes and other highly stressed areas. Replacing the complete component is not always necessary. RA Power Solutions restores damaged cylinder heads using specialised metal stitching and metal locking methods. Our Cast Iron Cylinder Head Repair process starts with a detailed inspection to locate visible and hidden cracks. The damaged section is then prepared and repaired with high-strength metal locks and stitching pins. Since the process is carried out as a cold repair, there is no welding heat that can cause distortion or alter the original properties of the cast iron. After stitching, the repaired area can be machined to restore the required dimensions. Pressure testing and final inspection are performed where required to verify the condition of the repaired cylinder head. With more than 47 years of experience in repairing heavy engine components, RA Power Solutions undertakes cast iron cylinder head repairs for marine and industrial diesel engines, helping customers restore valuable components instead of replacing them.
