Advices for fillling: Carefully drill the ends of cracks, in order to avoid that the damages becomes bigger. Cracks should be enlarged to 2/3 of the wall thickness in v-shape, then fill with adhesive steel. Incorrect drilling: With a drill, enlarge the stripped screw thread or worn holes to twice their original size and fill with Adhesive Steel.. Create the new screw thread with the screw being used (with release agent applied).
Advices for gluing: Adhesive Steel is not a typical glue, as it containts fillers. Anyhow, it glues well, hardness and break strength are good. The adherence increases with the size of the adhering surfaces. Therefore contact spots should be roughened or furnished with grooves and notches. Bonds equal and unequal materials: e.g. steel, aluminium, lead, wood, iron, eternite etc.
Advices for sealing: Damaged pipes and pipeline are isolated and sealed using Adhesive Steel. Paint Adhesive Steel onto a piece of fabric and use as a bandage.
