Dave H. 10/01/00:
Thanks to all the folks at Durafix. I repaired my 1975 Starcraft aluminum boat. I had 11 leaks 0 leaks now. The whole trick is do it twice.The first time did not stop leaks. I reheated each leak and rubbed each with stainless brush.I guess it is a matter of tinning fine cracks and loose rivets. My regards again to Durafix.
 captkeywest: I am sure several of you have seen the guys at the boat show weldiing aluminum with a durafix rod and a propane torch. and wondered if this stuff could be handy for "in the field" and remote repairs .... bottom line, _yes_ the stuff works and could be very handy .... read article

NOW WELDING ALUMINUM IS AS EASY AS 1 - 2 - 3
     

HOW TO WELD ZINC BASED METALS WITH DURAFIX ROD
Vee the broken edges to about 45 degrees, clean the surface of any plating or scale back from edges of the vee 1/8 of an inch.
 
 
Heat until it starts to flow. Turn flame paralell to surface and with side of flame, hold at this heat. Heat welding rod to same temperature. Now with both bases and welding rod at this temperature, touch rod to the break and rod will flow into vee, thoroughly fusing the parts. 
Repeat operation until break is completely filled. Be sure to kick rod into weld to break down skin resistance as filler rod will lay on surface and will not fuse if only heat is applied.
 

HOW TO BRAZE ALUMINUM WITH DURAFIX ROD
Brush surface to be repaired thoroughly under heat to break up surface oxide.
 
 
Heat the parts hot enough to flow without the aid of the flame, thoroughly tinning the surface.
 
Brush Tinned surface under heat, thoroughly filling the open pores.
 
 
With sides thoroughly tinned, flow in enough rod to fill the Vee. Be sure filler fuses with the tinned surface without melting the base metal. 

HOW TO REPAIR A PROPELLER
Wire brush throughly to break up surface oxide and remove paint.
 
Heat hot enough to flow rod without the aid of the flame. Tin the flat (not beveled) side and attach a temporary support of carbon or copper. 
Turn and tin beveled side, building out the blade slightly larger than its original size. Grind damaged edges to a 45 bevel. Pitch propeller to standards. 
Let cool, then grind to proper standards. Results? ... a well prepared wheel without porosity for you to balance and paint!

General Notes

This rod will work with propane, mapp, butane, oxyacetylene or any fuel source as long as the material is brought up to 732°F. The rod will not work if heated directly. You must heat the material that you are working on to 732°F and then apply the rod. The material must be cleaned with a stainless steel brush (included) because the rod will not adhere to stainless steel. The rod will not adhere to the material being brazed if it is cleaned with a steel or other type brush.
