Ain’t fooling around with that one

What kinds of steel alloys are typically used for the internal muffler baffles. I may need to replace one on a 2T snowblower.

No, it’s one for a customer. I have a few left but once they’re gone I can’t get anymore. I’ll be keeping one for myself though.

Thanks. It’s a new 346xp, I’m building them using new 353s and swapping a few bits. Genuine mahle 346 top ends.

Yeah stainless pipe with silver brazing rods. I think the stainless gives a nice finish.

Nice finish on the pipes. What did you cut them with? I cut mine with a chop saw then clean them up on the lathe. Been thinking about a band saw though.

I actually use a lathe, I make OD and ID to my liking from solid stainless rod , then cutoff tool , then finish ends in lathe, like you said.

Nice! I thought they looked lathe finished. It’s something I’ve just started doing and I don’t know why I didn’t do it sooner. Makes a real nice finish.

That’s mighty fine work as well. I have some 5 series muffs that could possibly use that treatment lol. I don’t have all the fancy tooling you fellas have on hand. But I bet I could do a mean Home Depot version with some conduit! Haha.
