BRANDS TESTED: Oatey, JB Weld, Hercules, POR 15, EP-400, Gorilla, QuickSteel, Loctite, KBS NuMetal, Pratley, A+B, and PC-7. Epoxy putty brands were tapped and threaded, then tested for strength. Brands also used to repair pipes with holes, then pressure tested. Epoxies tested for compressive strength. Finally, some of the epoxies used to repair chain and also used to repair a damaged cylinder head.

When I saw how well PC-7 did with the high pressure water test it reminded me of an industrial dishwasher I repaired in 1978. A casting cracked inside the machine in the high pressure water line. It was meant to be a temporary repair. The environment is pretty harsh. It's 210 F, very caustic detergent and it runs 2 hours every day. 40 years later the machine was retired but the PC-7 was still intact. Amazing stuff and real cheap.

Actually, the shortcoming of the testing is that it only goes to failure. It would be useful to know how long these strong materials can withstand 1/2 of the force it took to make the product fail. Like if it can hold 1000 pounds before breaking, can it hold 500 indefinitely? In my experience, epoxy rarely fails instantly. It lets go after some extended use.

I like JB Weld, too. But they’re not giving it away for free. A genuine comparison of the different brands of epoxy putty would be the holding power per dollar. Not the holding power per ounce. Anyone can manufacture very expensive epoxy putty. This fellow appears to offering a comparison, but as you may note, all the products fall within a specific price range; from expensive to very expensive. How much does equivalent epoxy putty cost per ounce in Mexico City? Or Shanghai? Probably a lot less. We need country by country price comparisons. Not just domestic price comparisons.

@@jesse75 You’re correct. Quality is the first consideration. So I agree with you. Let me ask: If an exact equivalent of JB Weld were for sale in Mexico City for 80% less, would you be happy with the higher price in America? Probably not. American workers are being asked to accept lower wages because of globalization. Therefore they should also get lower prices. But our prices are increasing very rapidly. Insulin costs twenty times as much in America as it does in Mexico, for the same product. Do you think that’s fair?

@@Arthurian. The packages on some of them (example Quiksteel at 6:18) directly claim on the packaging full cure in 1 hour. Project Farm let everything sit for at least 48, so it's definitely not that they didn't have time to cure. Curing being a chemical process makes sense that ones designed to go slower end up stronger, more time for longer polymer chains and stronger crosslinking between the chains.

Firstly, thanks a lot for putting in the time, effort and expense to conduct this comparison. Been using JB Weld for 60 years and always had excellent results. Glad to learn I've been choosing wisely all that time and I plan to continue except for pressure applications. I've used it for gluing in a spark plug on an aluminum head; sometimes it would go a hundred miles before it popped out. Also to repair a leaking main seal on a washing machine tub which worked like new for two years and then I sold it. I've heard it's good for rusted car sheet metal if you're selling it.

Tried JB weld first and it held for a little while but then lost it's bond and came off. Tried PC-7 and it stuck. Never had a problem with it again. I've never used Numetal, which seemed pretty impressive too. One more thing I can add about PC-7 is I've had the same containers of it for like 30 years and it still works great.

Phase 4: Watch the entire review for every video as they come out, regardless of potential need for the product. Phase 5: High five yourself when he reviews products that you requested, regardless of the probability that several of his 1.5M followers requested it too.
