i have a steam leak in an elbow in a place where it is not possible to remove the black pipe and replace the fiting without removing half of the wall is there a way the pipe can be cut and fitted without treading it.
ie.
(can this pipe be welded it is black pipe?) can I cut the pipes at the sides of the elbow and then using two nipples and an elbow replace the removed section by clamping it to the original pipes?
