What torque values can you expect? READ BELOW. Real Men only buy the BIG TUBES of JB WELD: https://amzn.to/3cFP19v Buy Heli-coils to get the best results: https://amzn.to/3aFg1nP PASTE WAX I used: https://amzn.to/34JhuMh Digital torque wrench adapter: https://amzn.to/2w1zpg6 Affiliate links. COPPER WIRE TRICK VIDEO: https://youtu.be/soOvDuwfnQA WAX vs OIL. The wet oil or grease mixed with the epoxy and can cause it to fail. WAX has a chance to dry and not contaminate the epoxy bond. WAX I used: https://amzn.to/33492lG Great for all woodwork, finishes, metal table saw/router table surfaces so stuff slides easily. Great for wood on wood drawer glides. You can find it at Home Depot as well for around $7 a can and it will last you a lifetime.  A 5/16"(8mm) bolt torqued to 5ftlbs is going to supply approximately 1000 pounds of clamping force. 10ftbs will yield roughly 2000 pounds of clamping force. Torque Values: JB WELD standard 24hr cure 5/16-18 bolt with 1/2" of engaged threads. Testing in video and again off camera all came back with similar or even better results if the holes had some old threads left. NO THREADS AT ALL 10.1ftlbs 8.1ftlbs 7.8ftlbs SOME OLD REMAINING THREADS 12.4ftlbs www.instagram.com/sixtyfiveford/ TENSILE STRENGTH: ability of a material to resist having itself pulled apart. This test would be a 1 inch square long bar that is pulled at both ends until it breaks. Quiksteel: 5960psi JB WELD Original: 3960psi JB KWIK: 3127psi SHEAR STRENGTH: Probably the most important aspect. Ability to resist being sheared off a surface. This essentially tests it's ability to stick to a surface. This test would consist of two 1 inch wide metal bars that overlap each other in the center by 1 inch. 1 square inch at any thickness would connect the two rods and they would be pulled apart. This is the shear strength. Quiksteel: 710psi(assume steel and less for aluminum) JB WELD Original: 1040psi Steel at room temp & approx 700psi Aluminum at room temp JB KWIK: 1040psi Steel at room temp & approx 700psi Aluminum at room temp HEAT it can operate under: Quiksteel: 500F continuous JB WELD Original: 400F continuous JB KWIK: 200F continuous QuikSteel: https://amzn.to/2xkm7LT This is a great product and I have used it for nearly 20years. It is more for building up/constructing surfaces and has one of the highest continuous heat ratings. I have used it to seal leaking metal gas tanks many times and it is excellent. This application didn't work as I wasn't able to push and wedge it into an open ended hole. JB Kwik Weld: https://amzn.to/2TLa5CS MAN SIZE TUBES: https://amzn.to/331AmB7 I use this mainly for low strength situations where I need the epoxy to set up fast but be thin/wet while applying. It is weaker than the original JB Weld but still has good strength.
