Title: KUDO Cold Weld for Steel, Batteries, and Pipes – High-Strength Metal Repair Adhesive
Description: KUDO two-part, high-viscosity polymer cold weld provides a fast, strong, and airtight bond for metal, glass, ceramic, wood, and most plastics. Ideal where welding is impractical or impossible, it's easy and economical to use. Perfect for repairing heating radiators, hot and cold water pipes (including PVC, ferrous, and non-ferrous metals), drains, plumbing, and other household items. It prevents galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals. The cured cold weld boasts high airtightness and strength, withstanding significant static and dynamic loads and allowing for machining (grinding, drilling, threading). Resistant to water, antifreeze, oils, and other technical fluids. Operates in temperatures from -60°C to +150°C.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Two-Part Polymer Formula: Ensures superior adhesion and strength for long-lasting repairs.
- High Viscosity: Ideal for vertical applications and filling gaps.
- Versatile Application: Works on a wide range of materials, including metal, plastic, glass, ceramic, and wood.
- Welding Alternative: Provides a convenient solution when welding isn't feasible.
- Corrosion Resistant: Prevents galvanic corrosion between different metals.
- High-Temperature Resistance: Withstands temperatures from -60°C to +150°C.
- Machinable: Allows for post-repair grinding, drilling, and threading.
- Chemical Resistant: Resistant to water, antifreeze, oils, and other technical fluids.
- Easy to Use: Simple application process for quick and effective repairs.
- Cost-Effective: Economical solution for various repair needs.
Application Instructions:
Work best at temperatures between +5°C and +35°C, with the adhesive at +15°C to +20°C. Application at temperatures down to -10°C is possible if the adhesive was prepared at the recommended temperature. Clean and roughen surfaces to be bonded using an abrasive material to improve adhesion. Degrease with KU-9100 Silicone Remover and allow to dry. Wear gloves to avoid direct skin contact. Cut the required amount of product; ensure the cut is perpendicular to the adhesive cylinder's axis to maintain the correct component ratio. Moisten gloves with water. Thoroughly knead the compound until a homogeneous, malleable mass is achieved and apply to the repair area. Clamp the surfaces together using a clamp. Shape the compound as needed using a wet spatula within 20 minutes at +20°C (less time at higher temperatures). Curing time is 1 hour at +20°C or higher; full strength is achieved in 24 hours. Wrap unused portions in film and store in the tube. Avoid shaking or impact during curing to ensure a strong bond. Do not use for repairing kitchen utensils that come into direct contact with food.
Storage and Revival:
If the adhesive hardens due to expiry or improper storage, heat it to +60°C using a radiator, hot water, or car engine surface. Allow to cool slightly before use; it will regain its original properties. Proper storage may allow the product to remain usable beyond the expiration date.
