[@kanaka2010]

I believe the PSI that they are referring to is how much pressure externally it can be put under without fail or before failure. Pulling on it would be its tensile strength which I believe would be way less than what can be handled in comparison to psi.

[@cccmmm1234]

Psi tensile is pounds per square inch of cross section. The material he rolled out was way less than a quarter of a square inch. Still it should have maybe taken 200 pounds.

[@Digital-Dan]

The rungs of a ladder are traditionally all the same length. Adhesives in general don't work well under shear. PSI is not the same as P.

Epoxy is stronger when less is used. Kind of like when a drop of superglue can lift car, but you could never make a chain link with it and expect it to hold body weight.

[@Stigstigster]

@@thegreatcanadianlumberjack5307 I don't think the 1550 PSI rating means what he thinks it means. It does not mean the weight a stick or ring of it can hold in the way he tested it. I believe they measure something called the "Lap shear" strength. The test involves one square inch of the putty joining two pieces of something like two planks of wood together, not end to end but sides together and then seeing how much force it takes to slide them past each other, not pull them apart. As always Tyler misunderstands what a product is claiming but that's what we love about him!

I will say that the epoxy like this works good for fixing leaks between pvc and metal drain.

I love it, you should do an adhesive showdown. Flex seal, epoxy putty, nano tape, liquid nail, super glue, any and all of it

[@thomaskurz5617]

To be honest I never thought to use it as a sort of glue for wood. That is clearly not what it ever was designed for, I used it mostly in model building, thats where I also know it is mostly used. To fix little holes or cracks in models to get smooth surfaces, to build attachments for customizations that are not under a lot of force. You can use it quite well to fix holes and cracks also all over the house and garden. When it is dry you can sand it down and paint it to fit. When it is still moldable you can also try to create woodtexturing to fit to the part you try to fix. Also it is easier to work with if you keep your hands wet,as you can form the putty better then. Not sure about that Gorilla stuff you used, but most of these epoxy putties need at least 24 hours to cure fully, and some of them can be dried in an oven to get them to full strength.

[@ThePinkPanth3r]

For doing a ladder, sand the connection point with 60 or lower grit, then just screws to hold it together while it cures, remove the screws then try climbing.

For the bat. Adding little dowel pegs to help stabilize. And using a clamp for curing. Might make it sturdy.

[@Screwhead]

You should check out people using that stuff to sculpt miniatures! It's INSANE how much detail they get in their sculptures!

[@Hudson316]

It also depends on the putty, they come in various levels of grainyness and the finer the grain the more detail you can sculpt but the less strength in the putty. Like the "Green stuff" putty I've used, I wouldn't trust for anything other than sculpting.

[@owenkh8195]

[@Near2Future]

PSI is pressure not weight. It's for like vaccumes or pumps. More then likely to fill cracks ect. You'll need an epoxy that is designed to be pulled apart.

Epoxy is useless to adhere smooth surfaces together. Next time drill a few holes into the wood at the connection points to get the epoxy "right in there". It'll be stronger, however it's still not ideal for the material.

[@rickymortinson1918]

Ya this putty is not an adhesive.

Tyler when new glue comes out: 🧐🤔😀

[@terranovarain6570]

They get their strength rating by sandwiching pieces of metal together and pulling in opposite directions from 2 outer plates one side and the inner plate on the other I think the fact that it pulled away ceramic showes it's quite good especially on porous material just need better preparation the mug should've scuffed the Glaze Always scuff to create extra bonding surfaces when using adhesive And that ladder come on even if you don't have clamps nail it together then rip them out with a cats paw after its cured or simpler yet screws Adhesive 50 percent preparation 50 percent application 👌

[@kuhrd]

The 1550PSI strength rating on the package is under compression with the best-case scenario. Basically, none of these types of products perform well under dynamic or tension loads.

Hey man, maybe for the ladder trick you could assemble it with screws as well as epoxy? Then when its dry and ready to test you can take the screws out. The screws will also work as a bonus by acting as a constant vice.

Should’ve sanded the wood before applying the putty. It will rough up the surface of the wood creating extra surface area to allow the putty to properly stick.

So I did the math and given the chain link being roughly an in wide and 5 inches long the 74lbs of force applied to that section equates to about 2400 PSI on that section of chain so the rating was actually pretty spot on.
