JB-weld
« on: February 15, 2019, 04:59:04 PM »
Any one using 5min clear JB-weld for nock overlays?

Claims 4,400psi tensile strength which is 1,000psi more than smooth-0n ea-40...

Wondering if anyone has any experience using it or reasons why I shouldn’t?

Never used it for any bow related projects, but used it on plenty of other things. Its good stuff, can't imagine it would not work well for any non flexing app. And it matches my attention span :bigsmyl:

Exactly my thinking flem!

no flex in the tips, said it’s good to 500 degrees for 10 min and completely water resistant :dunno: so I just glued them up, worst case they pop or I grind them off if I don’t like it for some reason right?

I think you will be fine I use it all the time to repair pin holes on pneumatic bulker tanks it holds 20 psi presure & 200 Deg F fine,  fixed pipes with to ,it's good stuff takes heat well solid stuff !
If you fear failure, you will never try ! But never except it!!
