Jb weld kwik steel review.

J b weld only adheres to the surface so the bond strength is actually only 1800 psi. Kwikweld is a great alternative to original j b weld when you need a quick setting epoxy. I ve seen j b weld break fail under certain circumstances but if you applied the product correctly and you re not expecting it to do something entirely unreasonable it s amazing stuff and i highly recommend it. A jb weld review shows that it can withstand temperatures up to 500 degrees fahrenheit.

J b weld kwikweld is steel reinforced has a tensile strength of 3127 psi and can withstand temperatures up to 230 degrees fahrenheit 110 degrees celsius. Once dried and cured it only can be removed by exposure to heat above 600 degrees fahrenheit sanding or filing off from the places it was applied. However they are both strong enough for most projects and repairs. A proper weld is as strong as the base material sometimes stronger.

However it is not recommended on car exhausts mufflers or converter systems in the exhaust area. Because it is faster setting kwikweld has about two thirds the strength of j b weld. It sets in 4 minutes and cures in 4 6 hours while j b weld sets in 4 6 hours and cures in 15 24 hours. After mixing it forms a permanent bond and can be shaped tapped filed sanded and drilled after curing.

Which is 65 the strength of filler metal. Kwikweld is a fast setting version of the original j b weld two part epoxy cold weld system that provides strong lasting repairs to metal and multiple other surface types. J b weld has a tensile strength of 3900 psi.
