Quiksteel Aluminium Epoxy Putty – 2oz Sticks (16402)

Description

Genuine Quiksteel · Part no. 16402

Quiksteel Aluminium is a 2oz epoxy putty stick for metal repairs, suited by name to aluminium parts, that also grips fibreglass, plastics, wood, glass, ceramics and brick. It sets in about 4 to 5 minutes, cures in 1 hour, can be drilled, tapped and painted afterwards, and takes up to 260°C.

Good to know

• Can it fix a leak while wet? It cures under water, so it can close a small hole in a tank, pipe or boat without everything being bone dry, though a clean surface still helps it grip.
• How hot can the repair run? Up to 260°C, enough for many engine-bay castings and housings; for exhaust manifolds, choose a filler rated far higher.
• How fast do I need to work? Very fast: it starts to set within minutes, so cut and knead only as much as you can place at once, and shape it before it firms up.

Which one?

For plastic parts, the Quiksteel Plastic Epoxy Putty (16502A); for hot manifolds, J-B Weld ExtremeHeat (37901UK) at 538°C.
