Quik Copper Reinforced Epoxy Putty Stick for repair leaks in household water lines

QuikCopper Copper-Reinforced Epoxy Putty Stick

Product Description:

QuikCopper is a hand-mixable, fast-setting, copper-reinforced

epoxy putty that quickly repairs pipes, tanks and vessels made of

copper, brass, bronze and other non-ferrous metals. After mixing,

it forms a polymer compound that is extremely tough and durable

and offers exceptional adhesion. Each handy stick contains premeasured

portions of activator and base throughout — no measuring

or mixing tools are necessary. The consistency (like modeling clay)

eliminates drips and runs, facilitates adhesion to the substrate, and

allows the material to be shaped as needed before curing begins.

After 60 minutes the application can be drilled, sawed, sanded, and

painted. Household hot water pipes and vessels can be restored to

service after 1 hour. Cured QuikCopper has the same appearance

and texture of metal. Suitable for interior or exterior use, it is resistant

to water, chemicals, and temperature extremes. It contains no VOCs

or solvents. It's non-flammable and releases no noxious fumes. It

won't shrink or pull away. The unused portion stays fresh for future

use when saved in its original package.
