Can forged balusters be welded?

Yes. Solid forged balusters weld easily to steel top and bottom rails using MIG or TIG welding. Forged cast iron decorative elements require a different approach — cast iron can be welded with nickel-based rod or bonded with a structural metal epoxy for non-structural repairs. Confirm the material composition of your specific baluster with us if welding is a critical part of your installation.
