Deep Chrome Socket
Deep Chrome Socket

Welding stainless steel or chrome to iron?
I have a 4 gallon backpack type of sprayer. There is a handle that I pump which operates a pump that pressurizes the sprayer. The handle is a cheap crimped hollow tube that has a 5/8 inch hex stamped end. The hex end slides onto the shaft of the pump.
The handle has fallen apart at the crimps, and it no longer can pump the sprayer. I thought about welding a deep wall 5/8" socket onto a piece of 1/2 rebar in order to make a new sturdier pump handle. The socket looks like it's made from stainless steel or maybe chrome. I grinded off a little, and it was shiney metal underneath. Can the socket be welded onto the re-bar? If not, are there any other suggestions on how to make a new handle?
I would buy some black iron pipe about the size of the shaft of the pump. Make it as long as you want or need. flatten one end so it will fit the pump shaft then drill and pin it to the shaft. You could even place a bicycle handle grip on the other end. Welding the rebar to the socket will probably not last long. The socket is usually a hardened vanadium steel and some what brittle and will crack at the weld.
