Abstract
A method for repairing a worn portion in an inner diameter surface of a bore of a cast iron part is disclosed. The inner diameter surface of the bore may have an original surface geometry prior to wear. The method may comprise forming a crescent-shaped pocket in the inner diameter surface of the bore to remove the worn portion, installing an insert in the crescent-shaped pocket, and post-machining the insert to form a crescent-shaped insert that is flush with the original surface geometry of the bore inner surface diameter.
