If your eyes are good you will read it even sets up under water. I don't need its marine qualities, I do need its strength, its mold-ability, and its relative high temp capability. Although strong, and highly recommended in the advanced engine porting world, it is not fully resistant to fuels.


a LOT more to come........

internets garbage.... research.... research.... research... and then research some more!!! http://lonestarspecialties.net/wp-conten...NEA788.pdf

ost email to JBWeld Wrote:Customer service rep.....


I'm looking for a heat resistant (300) putty, that will function in an air and fuel(gasoline) environment. I've included a short gif (animated photo) showing what I need to do.

The red dots are small drilled dimples, the single grey dot shows where I'd drill and then fit a screw, or similar threaded shaft as a protruding anchor. The thickness, at its thickest point will be about 7/16"

Thank you for your assistance
