Description
Superfast Aluminium Epoxy Putty Stick is a fast working, easy-to-use epoxy repair putty which makes quick and long-lasting repairs to aluminium alloy, other alloys and metalwork.
It is used for the repair and maintenance of industrial equipment, rebuilding torn screw-holes in aluminium and sealing leaks in radiators and boats. It is also used to repair aluminium castings and tanks.
Superfast Aluminium Epoxy Putty provides high-strength bonding of aluminium to aluminium, alloy to alloy, and aluminium and alloys to other metals, many plastics, wood, glass and masonry.
It sets to a light grey metallic colour like aluminium and is resistant to water, chemicals and temperature extremes. Repairs can be made in under one hour in both interior and exterior settings.
How to repair aluminium and other alloys using Superfast Aluminium Epoxy Putty Stick
Superfast Aluminium comes in a pre-formatted 114g stick which is 22mm diameter x 175mm long. To use, you simply cut off the required amount of putty from the stick and knead it by hand.
The two contrasting colours of resin and hardener will blend into a uniform silver-grey colour to indicate successful mixing.
Whilst soft, the putty is pushed into holes and cracks in aluminium and other metalwork where it will fill the hole and set rock hard. For bonding, you apply the putty and use it to attach the pieces requiring repair together.
Superfast Aluminium has a work life of approximately 4 minutes. Within 5-10 minutes, it will harden and form a cohesive bond. A full repair is completed in 1 hour, after which systems can be put back into service.
Once cured, it can be tapped, drilled, sawed, filed, or painted. Superfast Aluminium contains no solvents or VOC’s, it is non-flammable and releases no noxious fumes.
It will not shrink, pull away or corrode. The unused portion of Aluminium Stick stays fresh for future use when saved in its original package.
For repairs to metalwork subjected to temperatures up to 280°C, then please see Superfast Titanium Stick.
