J-B Weld FiberWeld 2" Pipe Repair Cast

I had a small hole in the connector pipe between the inside pipe and the pipe to the hose spigot outside. I discovered it after receiving a 200 water bill. I bought this along with a couple of other things to repair the hole, since I didn't know how they would work. I decided to start with this item and guess what? I didn't need the other things I ordered! This stuff totally fixed my problem, and it wasn't complicated at all. The only mistake I made was I thought the black bandage included was the strip that you submerge to activate. It's not, you want the one in the silver bag. It's not labeled, it just has the cautions on it. Basically, I kneaded the putty and placed it over the hole. Then I activated the fiber tape, be careful, it is messy! I wrapped it around the epoxy putty and then covered it with the black bandage and left it to cure. The only problem I ran into is that you are supposed to leave the bandage on for a few minutes and then remove it. I must have left it to long because it fused to the fiber tape and I couldn't remove it. It cures in about an hour, but I waited 24 before turning on the water. I watered my yard and garden the next day and it held just fine. I saved my cheap landlord a healthy chunk of change on a plumber in about 10 minutes. If you have a small repair like I had, this stuff works wonders. Application was easy but messy due to the fiber tape, but they include gloves. The price point wasn't painful either. Definitely cheaper than a plumber!

I used this to repair a small leak in a 2" pipe, and it worked perfectly. The wrap activated easily with water and was simple to apply, even for someone without plumbing experience. It set quickly and cured solid within 24 hours, just like the packaging said. I was impressed by how strong and secure the bond felt once it hardened. It’s a great emergency fix and saved me from a costly repair. Highly recommend for anyone needing a fast, reliable pipe solution!

But these kits are actually awesome and totally effective on copper pipes. It’s a bit messy and awkward the first one, so far I’ve done three and they got easier as I went. The black “sock” that fits over the top you are apparently supposed to remove as the product dries…don’t bother, just leave it on there. If you wait a few seconds too long you won’t have a choice anyway, this is extremely strong fast drying resin stuff, that literally does harden to strong molded fiberglass, practically porcelain or something. Essentially a five step process, first shut off water mains and drain out the pipes completely, next there’s thick two tone putty, that you press and fold between your finger to mix to one grey color (gloves included for this are required it’s sticky stuff). You then apply this putty over the leak, wrapping around the area. Next there’s the goopy mess part: a roll of moist fiber tape is soaked briefly in water. You then unroll this and wrap it as tightly as possible around the putty area, good idea to go at least a couple inches on either side of this. Gloves are essential, I got a little on my land and it took about three days to get it all off. This is really goopy mess work, but once you get it, it’s sort of goof proof to get a good thick layer where you want it. Last there is a roll of sticky black sock like material you wrap over the top to secure it all in place. I’ve noticed the sticky fiber tape is bubbling a bit as you apply this. Let dry for about an hour before turning water back on. Done. This combination hardens to extremely strong hard tough sealant material. I’ve now done three leaks, all totally successful and have been totally dry for over a month. I’d believe these will last for years, possibly many years. Great stuff for the cheap relatively easy fix!

Works well, took a few weeks to completely stop dripping but drip was so slow I never had to empty the bucket I put underneath. Large pinhole leak on half inch pipe near T joint in basement.

I tried a few other pipe repair products that were silicone tape; they still left a lot of leakage. This one actually works, though. Water was spraying everywhere, but when I used this repair kit, the leak was reduced to a trickle. It's a bit tedious to apply because there are two layers and they need to be prepared and cured, but it's worth the effort.

Very easy to use , it's a little messy , but it has to be to seal .. I had a pressurized water line under my sink start leaking with a pen hole leak.. it took about 5 mins to install and an hour to cure. But this stuff cured hard as a rock ! Buys me the time I need to get a plumber out and be without water on Christmas.

I used this for the first time, after using the powerwrap brand for 30 years, and must say it didnt perform like the original. It took much longer to adhere, harden, and dry. The original gets hot, sets up quickly, and sheds water, dries in 20 minutes. This time, it took 30 minutes to set. It wanted to keep unraveling. Then it took an hour to harden. And no heat to signal that it was working. Then it leaked ever so slightly, requiring a 2nd application. The powerwrap, all I ever had to do, instead of dunking it in water, was to wrap a layer, spray it with a spray bottle, then wrap it completely, and spray with water. It gets hot, and solidofies in 10 minutes to a very nice seal. Idk if i got a bad apple, but it just didnt work like the original.

JB Weld is perhaps one of the best inventions of all time. If you haven’t had the chance to fix items with this, you’re missing out! I fixed my stove knobs, my glasses, my car- anything that needs an amazing and hard bond. You just squeeze and little of one and a little of the other together and mix it up and apply and let sit overnight. I save the rest for later. Bumpers, side molding- you name it- this stuff is amazing.

Excelente.
