OVERVIEW

Fast-Acting Metal Repair for Fabricators and Mechanics

When you need a fix fast and welding isn't an option, reach for the J-B Weld SteelStik Epoxy Putty. This 2 oz stick (Model AG580) is a powerhouse of repair capability packed into a convenient, kneadable format. It is a steel-reinforced epoxy putty that mixes in your hand and sets rock-hard in minutes, allowing you to plug leaks, fill cracks, and repair broken metal parts on the fly. It's the ultimate "cold weld" solution for automotive, plumbing, and marine applications.

Using SteelStik is incredibly simple. Just cut off the required amount, knead it with your fingers until it turns a uniform dark grey color, and apply it to the damaged surface. Within 5 minutes, the putty begins to harden, and in just one hour, it is fully cured and ready for service. This speed is invaluable for emergency roadside repairs, shop fixes, or household maintenance where waiting overnight for a cure isn't feasible.

Don't let the ease of use fool you; this is a heavy-duty product. With a lap shear strength of 900 PSI, it provides a bond that holds up under pressure. Once cured, SteelStik can be worked just like steel. You can drill it to create new mounting holes, tap it to accept bolts, file it down to match a surface contour, or sand and paint it for a seamless finish. It is perfect for fixing stripped oil pans, cracked engine blocks, leaking radiators, and broken tool handles.

The SteelStik is compatible with almost all metals, including aluminum, brass, bronze, and stainless steel. It is also rust-proof and drinking water safe (NSF certified), adding to its utility around the shop and home. Whether you are a professional welder needing a quick gap filler or a DIY enthusiast fixing a lawnmower, the J-B Weld SteelStik is the reliable, easy-to-use solution that gets the job done right the first time.
