Permatex Cold Weld Compound
Metal tools deliver reliable strength around the house and on the job, but what happens when one breaks? Tools crafted from metal can be very expensive on the retail market, so it would make sense to repair them instead of buying new. However, once metal is broken it can be very difficult to rejoin the material with anything other than a heavy duty weld. Welding takes time and energy, and many people don’t have access to a welding machine. The simple solution is to use a product called Permatex cold weld compound. It is essentially a way to join metal together without using a welding machine.
Typically if you want to weld to metal together, you need the right type of welder and electrode. Different metals require different electrodes and welding expertise. Permatex simplifies the process. It’s able to weld all sorts of metals including steel, brass, aluminum, bronze and more. To repair a garden tool, simple combine the two part adhesive and apply to the broken surface. Within 15 minutes the cold weld will be complete. After curing the welded spot can be sanded, painted, drilled and altered to achieve the look and shape you want. Conventional welding can’t touch the ease of use that Permatex provides.
You may wonder if Permatex can compare with a typical weld on a strength level. When bonded with steel, this compound can achieve over 3000 psi of shear strength. It can withstand up to 300 degrees Fahrenheit temperatures with ease. Tools large and small can be repaired with ease because the compound is easy to get into small grooves and hard to reach areas. You can apply the compound with a brush or toothpick to get it right where you need it. Why buy a new tool when you can easily repair it with Permatex?
