Bead rolling service?

[lilcraigford]

Looking for a place locally that can bead roll the ends of my intercooler plumbing. Did a search around the forum but didn't turn over much.

[kidcrash603]

Most people I know just lay a bead of weld around the piping, and I know Scott at ballistic can do that for you.

[Dagazenterprise]

i can weld some bead on there for you, that's what i did on my wagon and S10, call or txt me if you're interested, my pm box is full

They are not sponsors, but Synaptic3 has a bead roller and they can roll your pipes.

^oh no mentioning a place that isn't a sponsor but can help the guy out!?!?!? Ban ban ban

O wait this isn't evom or nes haha

[OVRBST]

HAHAH.... nice. Call them and see what they'd charge. It's not a lot of work to roll the tube, but depending on how many you need it may take up to an hour ($100 or so)

Well they were a sponsor at one time...lol

im so sick of NES

i finally see why people make fun of that forum. the whole site is brenwashed and their rules and theories are just retarded.

but, i'd ask Scott (ballistic) about the bead rolling...since he is a sponsor and all and he's the man. haha

Need Some Help

Hey guys I was hoping someone here could help me out or point me in the right direction.

Right now my intercooler charge piping has no beads on the ends and is creeping / working its way lose over time, this is a serious boost leak issue that i need resolved. I need to bead my piping but I have no idea where / how to get that done.

We are talking about 2.5" Aluminum tubing here, nothing crazy, and im in need of a bead roller for it... Does anyone know where I can get a bead roller before the weekend?? I need it friday if possible...

I saw some DIY things on line where you rig up some vice grips but I dont have access too or have any knowledge with welding so i need some help if possible

Thanks guys

I already have all T-Bolt clamps and I also went as far as to silicone / epoxy all the couplers / tubing at the joints but they creep off because its not beaded so its just a smooth surface that always expands / contracts with boost and slowly works its way loose

First thing that comes up when you search bead rolling

Also the first non sticky thread in the tech resources section

Those are cool, never seen the second ones.

If you can't get it rolled, dag or Scotty can weld beads on them.

In a pinch, you can spray the pipe with hairspray before sliding the silicone over them too.
