RE: Welding alternative question [TANKS]

It won't stand up Bruce.  It's not really an alternative to welding.  It's
more akin to soldering.  The only way to get a decent bond between aluminum
is welding (TIG, MIG, or gas) and even then welded aluminum isn't the best
solution if the parts are going to see vibration.

Subject: Welding alternative question [TANKS]


All,

Has anyone ever experimented with Dura Fix (http://durafix.com) as an
alternative to welding?

I don't have a welder but will have a few small aluminum suspension parts I
would like to weld. It seems like this could be an acceptable alternative.

Tanks,
