huskyohilux Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Got a rather big dent (apprx 1/2" wide x 1" long x 1/2" deep) in one of my pro curcuit platinum series pipes. It Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave I. Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 im in the same boat. I was told by another member here that there are places that can hot glue some tabs to the dent and pull it out with a slide hammer so you dont ruin the chrome. Im trying to find someone local to pull a dent from my pipes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im trying to find someone local to pull a dent from my pipes. I did a search and read about filling the pipes with water and freeze them or fill them with compressed air to pop the dent out but never saw anybody who tried either one... Regarding the glueing, we must talk about some strong glue to hold up for that...let me know if you find anybody who does it and talk all information off of him so I can do it myself...forget about finding a shop in sweden who does that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

okbeast Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 There's a place online that does it, a couple of the guys know the website. Edit here it is: http://www.piperepair.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ride-Red Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Plug the ends and fill it with air, then run a torch across the dent to make this area the most maleable. Increase the air pressure when you know the area is hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyhighprerunner Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Ive seen the freezer deal work but just put pipe plugs from the local hardware store in the ends then it worked...just it see what happens hopefully it will work...

endofitall9 Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 damn i missed this thread..Ive been heating pipes and blowing out the dents like that for years..sorry i didnt chime in sooner...the local shops around here charge you $60 a dent to pull the dents out,,,just be sure not to get it too hot and shoot too much air at once or else youll blow a big ass hole in your pipe!..
