Welds?

[BassMan257]

hey, some kid on Pbnation Says that "a weld broke" in his valve... He kept going on about it, and all the while im thinking... "isnt a valve cast? Im confused... Is a valve "welded" together? the kid said that the vlave blew up while he had the gun in his hands... and it was "shaking everywhere" I dont know what to think... are there welds?

Yes, there are on a classic valve. Its welded where the back of the bolt touches the valve, not on the bolt though. For it to blow up, he must of been hitting it with like a sledge hammer or something.
