Frequently Asked Questions
How strong is JB Weld compared to actual welding?
JB Weld Original provides a tensile strength of 3960 PSI and can withstand over 500 PSI of pressure. Whilst not suitable for structural welding applications, it creates bonds strong enough for most repair situations and often proves more durable than the surrounding material. It's ideal for non-load-bearing repairs and as a supplement to mechanical fasteners.
How long does JB Weld take to cure fully?
Curing times vary by product. JB Weld Original sets in 4-6 hours and cures fully in 15-24 hours. KwikWeld sets in 6 minutes and cures in 4-6 hours. For maximum strength, allow the full cure time before subjecting repairs to stress or load.
Can JB Weld be used on surfaces exposed to heat?
Yes, standard JB Weld withstands continuous temperatures up to 260°C. For higher temperature applications such as exhaust manifolds or engine blocks, JB Weld HighHeat and ExtremeHeat formulations handle temperatures up to 316°C, making them suitable for demanding automotive and industrial repairs.
