Review on J B Weld 8271 Professional Fluid_Ounces by Paul Rosemark

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fantastic aluminum to aluminum adhesion!

Ideal for bonding aluminum to aluminium. I had an aluminum propane regulator that a handyman broke a bolt while attaching it to the aluminum bracket that holds it to the front of my RV. I couldn't get the broken screw out of the regulator and tried soldering, but the solder may not have been suitable because it wasn't adhering to the aluminum. I didn't want to deal with a different type of solder just for this one repair job, so I checked on Revain and found this - one reviewer said it worked aluminum on aluminum so I ordered it. I mixed some up in a disposable plastic container, applied a generous amount between and around the rim of the propane regulator and bracket (where the screw was broken), and within 6 minutes it was hard enough that the bracket wasn't moving. Everyone. I'm sure it won't come loose or break while driving on the road. I may have to buy a new bracket if I ever need to replace the propane regulator as the connection might not break easily but as this is a brand new regulator it may last 15-20 years so I'm very happy with the simple and reliable Repair! Highly recommended!
