PROTECT IATDS252

Steel Stick is a hand kneadable, non rusting, steel reinforced epoxy putty that mixes in one minute to provide fast, permanent repairs to items made of ferrous and aluminium metals. It comes in a handy rod form with the curing agent encapsulated in the contrasting colour base material. It's putty-like consistency eliminates drips and runs, providing "no mess" application with no tools required to use. Steel Stick is black in colour after use.

Useful Hint
  • Mixing. Twist or cut off required amount. To mix, knead with fingers to a uniform colour. If mixing is difficult, warm Steel Stick to room temperature or slightly above. Apply to the surface to be repaired (within 2 minutes of mixing). The mixed epoxy does not exhibit high bond strength at this point, but appears to be merely lying on the surface.
  • Force into any cracks or holes to be filled and strike off excess material, preferably with a tool wetted with clean water. When applying to a damp, wet or slowly leaking area, work the material forcefully into the surface and apply pressure until adhesion begins to take effect.
  • For a smooth appearance of the cured compound, hand rub with water or a damp cloth prior to hardening. Remove excess material before hardening begins. After 15-20 minutes the epoxy will harden like metal and start to form a tenacious bond. After just 45 minutes Steel Stick is completely cured and can be drilled, sawed, carved, sanded stained or painted.

Application
TDS252 EPOXY. After proper mixing, Steel Stick moulds like clay and may be used in many industrial and home Maintenance applications, including repair of iron pipes, tanks, tools and equipment, repair blow holes, holding and placement of fixtures and signs, repairs to moulds, patterns and castings, making prototypes, threadlocking, repair cracked castings, repairs to down spouts and gutters, light fixture installations, repairs to duct-work, anchor bolts, as well as countless other uses. The unused portion of Steel Stick will remain stable for years if protected from direct contact with the air, in cool conditions. Surface should be cleaned free of grease or dirt. Scuffing or sanding the surface prior to cleaning helps to ensure a good bond
