Product Information

J-B WELD ORIGINAL PRO SIZE: Professional 5 OZ Tubes of the Original Cold Weld two-part epoxy system that was designed as an alternative to torch welding. J-B Weld Original provides strong, lasting repairs to multiple surfaces and creates a bond stronger than steel. Perfect for DIY household, automotive, marine, craft repair and much more. So, what do these results tell us? Cheap five-minute epoxy isn’t terrible, and actually better than the fancy new versions of JB Weld. Loctite is okay, and the Devcon and original JB Weld are at the top of their game. That’s not that surprising, as you can cast cylinder heads for engines out of JB Weld.

Even though it’s still not leaking, I don’t really consider this a permanent or semi-permanent repair. However, I am continuing to drive the car, maximizing its use until the snow moves into New England. At that time, I’ll pull the head and probably try to find a replacement. This technology we use to assemble our list depends on a variety of factors, including but not limited to the following: compare https://www.jbweld.com/product/clearweld-syringe vs. https://www.jbweld.com/product/j-b-weld-twin-tube Cure And Set Time: After Kneading The Two Part Formula Together By Hand, Plasticweld Takes 25 Minutes To Set And Cures In 3 Hours.

VERSATILE AND DEPENDABLE: J-B Weld Original is steel reinforced, has a tensile strength of 5020 PSI and can withstand temperatures up to 550 degrees Fahrenheit (287 degrees Celsius. When fully cured, J-B Weld Original is waterproof and resistant to petroleum, chemical and acid. The Plastic Padding Super Steel comes in two tubes. When the contents of the tubes are thoroughly mixed, the curing process begins and you have a short period to place and use the mixture. The mixture hardens and soon cures to be as strong as steel. Features & Benefits: SURFACE APPLICATIONS: Iron & Stainless Steel, Copper & Brass, Aluminum & Bronze, Fiberglass and Plastic & PVC. The company had its beginnings in 1969 [3] in Sulphur Springs, Texas. Sam Bonham, at the time running a machine shop, discovered a way to create what he called a "tougher than steel" epoxy. [3] In 1968, Sam's future wife Mary persuaded him to sell his invention and he founded the J-B Weld Company. Sam died suddenly in 1989. He had commented before his death, "My life's dream is for J-B Weld to be all the way around the world, and for me to see an 18-wheeler load out of here with nothing but J-B Weld." [3] Within a year of his death, Mary had opened a European hub in London, internationalizing the J-B Weld Company and the distribution of the product. [3]The J-B Weld Company's original product line focused on a small number of products: J-B Weld (original 2-tube epoxy), J-B Kwik (4-hour epoxy), J-B Stik ( epoxy putty), Waterweld (underwater adhesive/filler), and a few others. [4] CURE AND SET TIME: After mixing the tubes at a 1:1 ratio, it takes 4-6 hours to set and 15-24 hours to cure. Once cured J-B Weld Original can be tapped, filled, sanded, molded and drilled. J-B Weld Original set and cure color is dark grey. And, regarding my BMW 2002tii, if the J-B Weld patch fails and I can’t find a replacement cylinder head, I can always, you know, just LS1 it.

J-B Weld can be used to bond surfaces made from metal, porcelain, ceramic, glass, marble, PVC, ABS, concrete, fiberglass, wood, fabric, or paper. [7] [8] Alcohol should be avoided when cleaning surfaces, as it can degrade the bond. [9]The Plastic Padding Super Steel Epoxy Weld is a dark-grey coloured, metal-filled, two-component adhesive, which sets like steel and is ideal for emergency repairs around the home, garden, farm, car, boat etc. Two-part epoxy is one of those must-have items in your toolbox, albeit kept in a ziploc bag to keep all that goo off the rest of your tools. It’s a glue with a million uses, but which brand is best? Should you keep some cheap five-minute epoxy around, or should you splurge for the fancy, long-setting JB Weld. It’s not a perfect analysis, but at least [Project Farm] has done the experiment. This is a test of which two-part epoxy you can find at your local home supply store is strongest.
