Apparatus for repairing a casting having a crack therein comprising a metal lock to extend across the crack and a lacing plug to fit in the crack, the metal lock formed as a rigid elongate member having a plurality of lobes formed from adjacent portions that are circular in cross-section and each having its center on the longitudinal axis of the elongate member, said lobes being of alternating large and small diameters and including a central large diameter lobe and at least one outer large diameter lobe at each side of the central large diameter lobe, said central large diameter lobe being spaced from each outer large diameter lobe by a small diameter lobe and with each lobe overlapping its adjacent lobe and extending through the elongate member; and the lacing plug including a head configured to receive a driving tool, a tapered shaft, a shoulder at a top of the tapered shaft, a non-threaded shaft portion interconnecting the head and the tapered shaft, a break-off groove formed in the non-threaded shaft portion adjacent to the shoulder, and straight threads formed on the tapered shaft, said threads having a uniform minor pitch diameter and a tapered major pitch diameter, said major pitch diameter being parallel to the outer diameter of the tapered shaft.

Apparatus for repairing a casting having a crack therein, said apparatus comprising a metal lock adapted to be inserted into a line of overlapping holes of alternating large and small diameters drilled to a desired depth and extending substantially transverse to the crack, said metal comprising a rigid elongated member having a plurality of lobes formed from adjacent portions that are circular in cross-section and each having its center on the longitudinal axis of the elongate member, said lobes being of alternating large and small diameters and including a central large diameter lobe and at least one outer large diameter lobe at each side of the central large diameter lobe, said central large diameter lobe being spaced from each outer large diameter lobe by a small diameter lobe and with each adjacent lobe overlapping its adjacent lobes and extending through the elongate member. Apparatus for repairing a casting have a crack therein, said apparatus including at least one lacing plug adapted to be inserted into said crack, said lacing plug including a head configured to receive a driving tool; a tapered shaft; a shoulder at a top of the tapered shaft; a non-threaded shaft portion interconnecting the head and the tapered shaft; a break-off groove formed in the non-threaded shaft portion adjacent to the shoulder; and straight threads formed on the tapered shaft, said threads having a uniform minor pitch diameter and a tapered major pitch diameter, said major pitch diameter being parallel to the outer diameter of the tapered shaft.
