Product details
Aluminium Putty is a two-part epoxy system, heavily reinforced with
Aluminium powder. Ideal for repairing Aluminium parts or where an
Aluminium finish is desired.
ADVANTAGES:
- Won't sag or shrink - can be applied to overhead and vertical surfaces Conforms to odd shapes.
- Easy to mix and use - rebuilds worn parts fast.
- Reduces downtime.
- Forms a non-rusting Aluminium-like finish.
- Superior adhesion - forms a solid bond.
RECOMMENDED APPLICATIONS:
- Repairing Aluminium castings
- Repairing wornout Aluminium parts
- Making models and jigs for holding odd shaped parts
- Making Aluminium dies

Directions for use :
- Clean and roughen the application surface. Grit blast or grind for
- best adhesion. (Note : A mould release should be used on
- surfaces where adhesion is not desired.)
- Mix the material thoroughly until a uniform colour is obtained.
- Apply completely mixed material to prepared surface.
TECHNICAL TIPS FOR WORKING WITH EPOXIES
Working time and cure time depends on temperature and mass:
- Higher the temperature, Faster the cure.
- Larger the mass of material mixed, faster the cure.
- To speed up the cure of epoxies at low temperatures:
- Store epoxy at room temperature.
- Pre-heat surface under repairs, until warm to the touch.
- To slow down the cure of epoxies at high temperatures:
- Mix epoxy in small masses to prevent rapid curing.
Shelf life : One year if stored under recommended conditions of storage
