JB Weld

[TrentMember]

Hey guys is this the best stuff for your spares pack? I figured the kwik stuff would be better since you don’t want to be standing around on the side of a trail for a long time. Only issue I see is that it isn’t as heat resistant so if anyone has used it or knows not to use it could you chime in.

Also is there a convenient place to grab it that’s cheaper than $20?

Cheers.

Don’t have any experience with it but I have seen it in a fair few bumbags, so must be O.K. (for an emergency fix that is)

They are all more or less the same AB, I haven’t used this one but it seems ok and $20 seems more then fair

Here is some info I found and the product of theirs I would carry, I carry one very similar

Description:
J-B Stik Weld is a hand kneadable, steel-reinforced epoxy putty adhesive/sealant that will plug holes and make permanent repairs on wet and dry surfaces. It will even cure completely submerged in water or GASOLINE! Simply knead thoroughly, with your fingers, a portion necessary for the repair and apply. J-B Stik will fully cure 20-30 minutes; and can be drilled, sanded, filed, tapped, machined, and painted. J-B Stik requires no tools or “prep time”, and makes no mess.

How does it work?
Simply knead thoroughly, with your fingers, a portion necessary for the repair and apply.

Hope all that helps

Hmmm $12 from the UK and risk customs seizing it or $28 locally…..
