JB Weld SteelStik is different from JB Weld Original Cold Steel. SteelStik has a faster set time (5 minutes vs 4-6 hours) and cure time (1 hour vs 24 hours). SteelStik is also rated to be stronger than Original Cold Steel (900 pounds per square inch vs 680 psi). So far, I am impressed.

Thanks for the simple video really helped me out
Absolutely! So glad it helped.
Thanks for the tutorial! I’m using the Steel Stik for making bolo ties!
What?! Are you drilling the Steel Stick after it cures?
I had to use this as an emergency on my fuel line. That was leaking and it worked awesome... It's a must have on long trips on older vehicles just saying
I wonder how it handles patching a gas line longer term. I haven’t heard. Keep me posted.
Hey, just wanted to jump in here. Some of the hard lines around my engine are leaking at the welds from rust and I’m about to use this. Saw on a forum a guy used this stuff on his leaking gas tank and not only did it weld while being covered in gas, a year later it’s still rock solid.
Thank you so much ❤
You're welcome 😊. Thanks so much for watching.
Thanks brother!
You are quite welcome. I'm do glad it helped. Thanks so much for watching!
Thanks, man.
You are quite welcome. Thank you so much for watching.
You’re the man!! The aluminum part on my street bike that’s mounted to the gas tank cracked when I tried pushing on it .. (shitty aluminum for ya) I bought the steel stick & was kind of scared to try it until now! Thanks brother
I’m telling ya, the stuff works. Thanks for sharing.
@@FieldGuidetoDIY now I just have to figure out how to get the excess weld off without scratching the living crap out of my bike lol
Buen video 👍🏼
Losiento. Mi espanol es muy mal. Muchas gracias.
Thanks!
You are quite welcome Habte. I’m so glad it helped.
@@FieldGuidetoDIY it is very helpful thanks again!!
LOL! Would you look at all the Gloves Police showing up. My goodness, people. Smh. Good video, brother. I got what I needed from it. No hall monitor demands from me.
Robbie, they’re just looking out for the Field guy. They want to glean all the info I have to offer 😂. Thanks so much for watching. So glad it helped.
All rite plan and simple this stuff...man i tell ya ...I had a exhaust leak on my Chevy ...nothing i couldnt of had welded but i thought i would give the steel stik a shot.......and Boyeeee this stuff is the beez neez the name is just what it is....Like steel......i will keep me a tube of this stuff in my tool stuff for now on...trust me.
Ha ha! Absolutely. So glad it worked. Thanks for sharing.
I used this today. I feel like there should have been a practice session first. It got hard very fast, which meant I had to rush through my repair. I was a bit short of product so I have to buy more and finish. It seems to work, but can't be sure until it's done
It does set up quickly. Mine did not hold so I had to repair again with original cold steel. I hope you have a better experience. Thanks so much for watching.
@@FieldGuidetoDIYmaybe you shud EDIT your video? Or even just the title! To say PART 2: UNFINISHED BUSINESS.
Not that anyone is going to have any reason to need your crappy video anyway. It's just another video on TH-cam that wastes people's time who are looking for ACTUAL PRODUCT TESTS!! Not "WATCH ME PLAY WITH SteelStik & WASTE YOUR TIME!!"
EXACTLY!! & WHY WE LOOK FOR "HOW TO" VIDEOS on TH-cam!! Yet THIS "WASTE OF SPACE" or rather "Waste of Time" video doesn't even get the "HOW TO" part right!! Thumb down videos that are useless & waste your time! I'm serious. I'm so sick of needing a video ASAP & getting CRAP LIKE THIS! WASTING MY TIME! He tells you in a REPLY that it sets up quickly INSTEAD OF TELLING ALL THE PEOPLE WHO CAME TO HIM FOR INFO ON THIS PRODUCT? Okay Jethro! (Beverly Hillbillys)
He never even TELLS YOU IF IT WORKS!!! MORON!! Oh! You have to read thru all his comments for that answer?
I think the package says to wear gloves as you knead the putty… the heat is from the chemical reaction….
Yes the package does say wear gloves. Used it today.
Pat, did you wear gloves? I appreciate you watching and contributing.
@@FieldGuidetoDIY I used this today to repair 2 fallen pickets in my aluminum bar fence. I did wear gloves (disposable nitrile, like cooking or light cleaning, because those were the disposable gloves I had on hand), but it still felt a little prickly through them. It did not stain my fingers through the gloves, though I still washed my hands afterwards.
Hoping this holds because I used the JB Kwik weld before and it only held for a couple months before failing again. This seems more promising because it was more like a putty that I could really mold to the picket and bar. The pickets that fell had 2 welds (top and bottom), and for both had failed, of course (the picket wouldn't have fallen if only 1 did). Like with the Kwik weld, I used a clamp to hold the picket in place at one connection point (above one horizontal bar), repaired the other, let it sit for about 20 hours, and then clamped near the repair and repaired the other weld. I was truly disappointed in my last attempt, so really hopeful this product holds, since I can't find anything else comparable on the market and hiring a welder to fix 2 pickets is...expensive. Possibly more expensive than replacing the fence gate, though without the emotional damage of digging up the flowerbeds the support posts sit in that took me 5 years of work to get just the way I want them...
I used this on my furnace inducer motor to stop it from vibrating.It has been on a year and is still on there nice and hard.
No way! That’s impressive. Someone asked if it could repair a cracked engine mount. I had to plead ignorance. Thanks so much for watching and for sharing.
@@FieldGuidetoDIY Yea way i don’t know about an engine mount i might be afraid of doing that but it worked to stop my inducer motor from vibrating which i thought was pretty. good although i really have no idea how long it will hold.
@@FieldGuidetoDIY There are people who claim it can do so, and it's been proven to be useful for sealing cracked engine blocks, but I wouldn't have the guts to try it myself. Besides, then I'd have an excuse to put that coveted Cleveland V8 in my project car
Sounds like some rat work
The more TH-cam I watch, the more I’m convinced there’s a worldwide gloves shortage
🤣🤣🤣
Next time wet your fingers a bit that will stop it from sticking to the finger and make it more malleable. You can also then wet a finger and smooth it once it is in place
GREAT tips. Thanks so much 7hatGuy. And thanks so much for watching!
No don't add ANY moisture to the product and make sure your hands or gloves are chemical free
@c.h.u.d thanks for the tip!
I just bought two of these sticks to fix a large rust hole in my car, I filled the hole with spray foam and now I’m about to use this stuff over the foam to seal up the hole. My car is a dark grey color so it might be close enough that I don’t need to paint it.
Impressive. Let me know how it goes.
Do not buy a car from this man
Can this be used to fill a tiny pinhole on the inside of a valve cover. OK with heat and oil?
Says good to 350F might want to check with a laser thermometer. Strength will degrade proportionally, but it’s not an application that needs strength.
GLOVES must be worn - the product states this fact in bold text
😂😂 I was about to say that lol
Pansies
it a safety issue Maggot
Too late
If you have irritated skin, so they recommend that Because some people skin are more sensitive. It all determines on who you are like me. I can mix it with my hands, but my buddy he needs to wear gloves.
Waste no time once you feel the endothermic reaction because it cures wicked fast. Also, have some kind of powder on hand to lightly coat the pads of your fingers when the putty gets to sticky during application and ceases to release onto the repair surface.
Great advice. Thanks so much for watching.
Exothermic not Endothermic @@FieldGuidetoDIY
Wrong don't use any kind of moisture powder or chemicals on your fingers to help keep the potty moist or anything else
I bought this to keep metal screws in a stripped hole on a bedframe. Do you think it will work?
Definitely!
Question.... I have an antique dresser, and a few of the drawer handles are missing the pulls. I've searched forever, and can't find replacements that will work. If I make a silicone mold using an existing pull, will this product be pliable enough to push into the mold? Also, will it cure strong enough to be pulled on as a drawer handle?
Great question! I imagine so (JB Weld Original Cold Steel is rated up to 680 pounds) but I can’t so for sure as I’ve never tried it out nor have I ever heard of such a great idea tried out. Let me know how it goes.
Probably a good idea to either strip the paint off or grind down to bare metal
Going to try that on my next test. Plus someone told me Steel Stick is more of a filler and Original Cold Steel is more of an adhesive.
Would this stuff stick to aluminum pretty good? I'm trying to repair a vertical window roller onto my car window. The little roller is attached to a base that mounts onto a window mount, but it got damaged and I now have to JB weld it back into place. It needs to withstand opening and closing the window on a regular basis and the only thing that stops the window going all the way up and down (off it's vertical tract) is that little roller attached to the window base on the bottom of the window.
I am told this also works with aluminum although I have not tried yet. Sounds like I've got to do another video. Thanks for the tip!
@@FieldGuidetoDIY I tried it the other day, it didn’t work lol. I’ll just have to weld it back into place, no worries 👍
No you got me curious. Must give it a go.@@bobbydabutcha
@@FieldGuidetoDIY It worked! Only time will tell how long this repair will last but I am optimistic. It looks to be pretty solid and a permanent repair though. Saved me a trip to the repair shop for a simple tack weld.👍
Thank you for this video. Will neoprene adhere to it?
I am not sure. Testing coming soon. Thank you for the idea.
@@FieldGuidetoDIY Looking forward to it. Thanks,
@49Macman absolutely
I'm using it to repair rim rash on aluminum rims and then will sand and paint.
Nice! Could you let me know if it blends to your liking?
@@FieldGuidetoDIY Blended and bonded to aluminum rims well and sanded smooth. Will now spray a couple of coats of primer and then spray a few coats of paint on rims afterwards and then clearcoat.
Does anybody know if this will stick to Carbon Filber? Or what will ??
The two part epoxy cold weld is rated for 3960 to 5020psi, the steel-stick is rated for 900PSI.
Surely that means the two part is better?
@@neosoulrebel Yeah mine says 4000 psi
Is this waterproof? I'm using this to fix cracked spots on old Datsun
It IS waterproof but it will need to be applied to a dry surface and allowed to cure (24 hours) without getting wet. I’ve found original Cold Steel will not cure properly if exposed to water. Thanks so much for watching. Let me know how it goes.
@@FieldGuidetoDIY I appreciate your reply and appreciate your time I would definitely let you know how it goes
I had to use a very small amount adhering a gear wheel to a shaft and it didn’t cure at all. Even after leaving it over night. Any ideas as to what happened?
Maybe the proportions were not correct? When I used steel stick, it cured but did not hold. I went back to original cold steel.
@@FieldGuidetoDIY Yeah that's what I plan on doing. I saw your video on the original product.
When I used a tiny bit, I didn’t grab enough with my fingers of the middle part so it didn’t cure. I did it again with equal parts and it worked
The newer version seems to be much stronger as it is up to 350deg and 4000 psi, works great so far.
I will look into that. Thank you!
@@FieldGuidetoDIY You're welcome, I was a bit skeptical bought it from Advance Auto but then I went on to JB weld Site and there it was 4000psi 350deg.
Do u know if I can use it on my fender?
You can because I have.
Did this guy purposefully tell us it's a skin irritant while kneading it with barehands? lol!!
Drill holes and install screws. Cheaper and 10 times stronger.
There ya go.
Works on glass holes too. Just patch it on
Thanks for the tip Ed. And thanks so much for watching!
Will it work on a wet surface???
John, I don’t believe so. I believe JB Weld Marine Weld will but I haven’t tested it yet.
Can I use this on a teeny tiny puncture on my cast iron radiator to stop a small leak ?
Yes, replace the radiator before taking a long trip though
I put it on a radiator about 10 years ago. Old ford with a e300 6 cylinder. I sprayed with carb cleaner and applied. Still holding. Drove everyday in Nashville Tn. No problem
I dunno which JB Weld company you used but mine did not bond at all. I got the Epoxy steel resin with the hardner. I was trying to bond a steel plated nut to a steel shaft on a electric motor. It never bonded and I was able to remove it with my hand after 24 hrs curing. I sanded the steel and put some acetone to make everything was clean. I did this 3 times with JB Weld. I tried 3 brands of metal glue but all the same problem. I tried super and gorilla steel epoxy and same problem. I solved the problem by getting it welded. I also was emailing JB Weld support and they check the glue and also the pictures and video I sent to them. They could not understand why it would not bond.
Reply
I wonder if the acetone weakened it somehow. I don’t know. I use JB Weld. I've never used acetone with it.
Next clean surface
Absolutely. Thanks for the feedback. And thanks so much for watching.
Use alcohol to remove the residue from your hands.
Do you recommend scotch or rum? Seriously, thanks so much for the tip and thanks for watching!
Ok....couldn't find anything.....it is -10 outside. Will this set properly at this temperature?
D I am told by the manufacturer that it WILL set up. It will probably take longer to cure. Please keep us posted. Thanks so much for watching.
It's getting warmer cuz you're kneading, Iz molecule science homie! Yo dawg, get yo ass a science book but this was a good visual G! 👍
It gets warmer because of an exothermal chemical reaction.
mine didn’t get warm, did not cure OVERNIGHT much less an hour
I’m so sorry to hear that. Did you knead it long enough?
you've got glasses brother ignore the gloves comments. eating the chemical debris is much more survivable than getting even the smallest amount in your eyes transferred from your fingers haha no but seriously. cut corners just wash up but contacts wearers especially even trace amounts on your fingers tips you'll feel it
Absolutely!
Says to use gloves on the package.
Indeed it does John. You caught me. Listen to him folks. Use gloves!
Don't waste money on trying to seal water leaks ..these jb type putties just cake and crumble when exposed to water 💧 at any pressure.
tried on 3 different metals, did not work. kneaded like crazy, did not get warm, was not very squishy, pulled right off even after 24 hours !! tried also to embed a nut in it, to allow insertion of a bolt, nope, did not work .
I’m right there with ya. I added my experience in the comments. It held for about one month then broke again. I ground off the steel stick and used original cold steel which is holding for nine months now. Sorry to hear about your similar experience. Thanks so much for watching.
i used a opened tube of that stuff from a few years ago 25% used , it got kinda hard from sitting around. i was able to form it but took much more preassure vs new tubes. once it was set and cured became rock hard
It ... Seems ... to be holding ??
Still holding!
they upgraded the strength to 4000 psi now
No way! I definitely have to check that out! Thanks for letting me know. Thanks so much for watching.
People, please be smart and use gloves when you touch chemicals...
Absolutely. Listen to Cril. Protect your health people!
I just kneaded a massive ball of this, plopped it on my project and then ate a nice tomato pesto sandwhich on a bolo roll without washing my hands because this guy said it was fine.
@@David-ys4xb was so funny, thanks for being in the earth… I don’t know how we would do without you

@@David-ys4xb excellent bro, you should go on stage.
What is the price in Sri Lankan currency
I’m sorry. I’m not familiar with the current exchange rate. Perhaps this will help - amzn.to/3DkKzcE
How do you expect it to stick when you didn’t even sand the metal surfaces
Great question. I thought the steel stick would stick the way our repairs with other JB Weld products have held. Remove all paint from the repair surface. Good advice.
unless its changed in the past year, the instructions specifically say to wear gloves, and do not get on skin
Ok glove police.. plenty other comments ALREADY REPEATEDLY said that🤣🙄
This is TH-cam. STAND UP ON IT! lol. I feel cheated out of a real YT vid. lol
Sorry to disappoint. The next JB Weld video I’m renting a silverback gorilla. I appreciate you watching though.
I love it! Can't wait. lol. Gonna try some on the board of an old Razor scooter I'm restoring. Hopefully it works for filling in some rusted edges.@@FieldGuidetoDIY
@@asanseil5553 I don’t think you should have any problems. Apply it heavy but be sure to wear a mask or respirator when sanding the JB Weld smooth. Let me know how it goes.
You've got it! I will. That's what I'm planning. I bought a nice Vevor 8'' utility fan with a 30' exhaust for sucking away the dust when I start sanding. Def gonna wear a mask too. I will keep you updated! @@FieldGuidetoDIY
Knew it sounded too good to be true. It totally failed to repair a drawer pull.
Donna, may I recommend Original Cold Steel next time? The SteelStik just didn't hold for me. th-cam.com/video/4zvuDhahrks/w-d-xo.html
Just put this on my muffler and didn’t mix it up oh well can someone tell me if I fucked up big time or not
I’m not sure of the temperature of the muffler. Keep me posted.
No surface prep, no gloves. Imagine what could be done if used correctly.
Richard, good point. What surface prep would you suggest?
Rich🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Did this improperly and then you posted a follow-up about how it isn't as good as advertised. You didn't prep the surfaces as required under the instructions. You also only press the painted smooth ring onto the top of the putty which is why it didn't hold. Had you drilled a 1/4 inch hole on the inside or bottom of the ring, pressed a small amount into the hole, then pressed it onto the mount you made on the legs then it would've held and would've been able to support your full body weight. Another way is to make a ring of putty around the ring and then sticking it to the leg would lock it to the knob on the leg permanently. Reading the instructions before making a how to video should be obvious.
Interesting. I’ll have to try that next time. Thanks so much for watching.
why the hell arent you using gloves?!?!?!?!
Folks, listen to Anthony. He is 100% correct. I should have been wearing gloves. Why? Because I'm actually kneading an epoxy with my bare hands. Anyone who knows epoxies, knows they work based on a chemical reaction. Don't work with chemical reactions with your bare hands. Sure you can wash up but if you have gloves, use them. Thanks for the reminder Anthony. You rock!
Lol. Thanks. Great attitude
Cushorts =🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
I may be a dumba$$, but it says "Wear Gloves" right on the package.
You are correct sir. I need to reshoot this video and replace it wearing gloves. I appreciate your concern.
Soft
Chcart 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
So it actually dries BLACK.. not gray as advertized..advertised... crap lol
No Jade. It actually dries like a charcoal gray.
Omg GLOVE POLICE DUDES… read the comments before repeating the same exact criticism🙄
🤣🤣🤣
The instructions state you should WEAR GLOVES!
You’re absolutely right. Thanks for pointing that out to us all.
Bob🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Is no one going to talk about how much this stinks? Smells like burning hair!
Now that you mention it, it does. Always wear gloves and apply in a well ventilated area.
Too much talk..😂
🤣🤣🤣 Thank you for watching long enough to comment.
