Will J-B Weld stick to itself?
Weld is completely resistant to water, gasoline, and about every other petroleum product automotive! Epoxy itself will not adhere to, or on Any metal surface, excepting lead some plastics not. A high temperature epoxy of some decent viscosity is What you want – like the JB Weld is utilize.
Is J-B Weld a permanent fix?
J-B Weld™ is The Original Cold Weld two-part epoxy system that provides strong, lasting repairs to metal and multiple surfaces. Mixed at a ratio of 1:1, it forms a permanent bond and can be shaped, tapped, filed, sanded and drilled after curing. It can withstand temperatures up to 550ºF when fully cured.
Does J-B Weld come in white?
Product Description. J-B MarineWeld is a specially formulated two part Cold-Weld adhesive system that provides strong, lasting repairs for bonding different or similar surfaces, such as metal, composites, fiberglass and others.

What will J-B Weld stick to?
J-B Weld is a two-part epoxy adhesive (or filler) that can withstand high-temperature environments. J-B Weld can be used to bond surfaces made from metal, porcelain, ceramic, glass, marble, PVC, ABS, concrete, fiberglass, wood, fabric, or paper.
Does J-B Weld work on rusty metal?
No, because the rust present when the JB Weld is applied will prevent any kind of permanent bond from forming between the epoxy and the steel underneath the rust. When epoxy and steel start to expand / contract from variations in temperature (they move at different rates) they’ll separate eventually.
What is the strongest JB Weld for metal?
Original Twin Tube Epoxy J-B Weld is The Original Cold Weld two-part epoxy system that provides strong, lasting repairs to metal and multiple surfaces. Mixed at a ratio of 1:1, it forms a permanent bond with tensile strength of 5020 PSI after curing.
Can JB Weld be drilled and tapped?
Morning, JB Weld epoxy works extraordinarily well and can be drilled and tapped as well as milled on a mill such as a Bridgeport.
Is J-B Weld stronger than welding?
J-B Weld, known as “The Original Cold Weld,” was developed as an alternative to traditional torch welding. It’s designed to be extremely effective in even the harshest environments. Because it’s a two-component (or 2k) epoxy system, it uses reactive chemistry to create the strongest bond possible.
