Frequently Asked Questions

How strong is JB Weld compared to actual welding?

JB Weld creates bonds with tensile strength of up to 5000 PSI when fully cured, which is often stronger than many of the metals being joined. Whilst it won't replace structural welding for critical load-bearing applications, it provides a permanent repair solution for most workshop, automotive, and industrial repairs without the need for welding equipment.

How long does JB Weld take to cure?

JB Weld Original sets in 4-6 hours and reaches full cure strength after 15-24 hours at room temperature. KwikWeld offers a faster alternative, setting in just 6 minutes and curing 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 parts that get hot?

Yes, standard JB Weld withstands continuous temperatures up to 260°C once fully cured. For extreme heat applications such as exhaust manifolds or engine blocks, JB Weld HighHeat is specially formulated to resist temperatures up to 316°C, making it suitable for most high-temperature repair situations.
