Re: OT: high temperature automotive epoxy


 

That's true, but it's engineered to have about the same coefficient of expansion
as cast iron. I actually have repaired engine blocks with it.

I don't know what kind of plastic they use for those tanks; it might be a
polyethylene variant. If that's the case, a mechanical repair may be
the most durable, particularly since you're dealing with heat and presure.

If you do try the JB weld, use the regular slow-curing type rather than the 5 minute cure.

Take a look at JB Weld.

Their advertising says that a farmer repaired the engine block of a tractor with it.
