JB Weld and resistance to chemicals

Post by ScottishBoy »

Hi Guys,
I just got off the line with the folks at JB Weld after reading through their material data sheets. They say that once the product is fully cured ( as per directions) it will remain chemically inert untitl the weld reaches its upper temperature range. I specifically mentioned butyl, methanol , ethanol and some of the other "lovelies" we can encounter. The folks at JB Weld assure me that they will remain chemically and temperately inert until they approach the materials destruction point. The JB Weld product will resist temperatures up to 500 F, while the stick and quick weld will resist up to 300F. They said if I wanted to feel safer about it, I could use the Marine weld which is specially formulated to resists salts and acids, but that the regular compound would work for nearly anything.

I was wondering if anyone has used this to any resolve. Im still liking my soldering, but I was wondering about this. ;)
