I’ve got a miller thunderbolt that needs the transformer lead spliced . Thought I’d ask someone who maybe had a better idea and the best way to splice it together again. Thanx !!!

Most modern welds today have aluminum. I would use splice in copper wire. Using Split Bolt Connector for Copper and aluminum and Anti-Oxidant Compound.

Thanx Dave, Appreciate your reply. Should be a pretty easy fix
take some fine emery and clean up about an inch on both sides of the crack, if its copper I would braze it back and be done, if its copper coated aluminum I would find a mechanical means to fasten them back together..

Thanx hobbytime , ya it’s aluminum taking it out to get at it better my all thumbs hand slipped and broke the fan blade. JB weld back together, If that doesn’t hold I guess a new one is only about 15 dollars.

you can use a wire splice like this...to connect both sides of the break..fan blade should be cheaper than that...just look for one on amazon and make sure you get the proper rotation one..
una pregunta le ha pasado a alguno de ustedes que al encender una Thunderbolt 225 XL no tenga salida ninguno de los 2 transformadores secundario? ni el bajo ni el alto. Que podria ser? la probé con otro eje selector de otra maquina y tampoco genera la salida de 70 voltios.. Que podrá ser eso?

I put that through an online translator:
Has a question happened to any of you that when turning on a Thunderbolt 225 XL, none of the 2 secondary transformers have output? neither the low nor the high. What could it be? I tried it with another selector shaft from another machine and it does not generate the 70 volt output either. What could that be?
