11.2 Repairs of Metal Fittings
Repairs of Metal Fittings should not be performed before the manufacturer
has been consulted. Most fittings are made from 1.7734.4 aircraft material
and welded in 141-WIG process (Shielded arc welding). In no case should
they be gas welded, because required properties of the material will
disappear.
