Product Details

HighHeat™ is a two-part epoxy system that provides strong, lasting, heat-resistant repairs up to 550° F. Mixed at a ratio of 1:1, it forms a permanent bond that has a 4730 PSI strength and is chemical and fuel resistant. At room temperature, HighHeat sets in 1 hour and cures to a dark gray color in 24 hours. HighHeat’s cure time is accelerated by heat and can cure in 1 hour at 250°F

Frequently Asked Questions

How hot can HighHeat Syringe epoxy get once cured?

HighHeat is rated for repairs up to 550 F once fully cured. J-B Weld publishes a single maximum for the syringe rather than separate continuous and intermittent numbers, so treat 550 F as a peak and keep sustained service comfortably below it. Once cured it also stays serviceable at low temperatures, down to around -40 F, which covers most outdoor and automotive use.

How long does HighHeat take to set and cure?

HighHeat sets in about 1 hour and reaches full cure in 24 hours at room temperature. You can accelerate the cure to roughly 1 hour by holding the repair at 250 F. Mix the two parts 1:1 until the color is uniform. Do not put the part into service or expose it to heat until the full cure time has passed.

Can I use HighHeat in a wood stove, fire pit or anywhere with direct flame?

No. HighHeat is an epoxy and it will burn where flame touches it directly, so it is not suitable for fire pit mesh, burner screens or the inside of a firebox. It handles radiant and conducted heat up to its 550 F rating, not open flame. For repairs in the fire zone, have the part welded instead.

Will HighHeat seal a pressurized line such as an A/C, power steering or transmission line?

No. Pressure and fluid will work in behind the repair and lift it, and a failure on a pressurized line is a safety problem, not just a leak. J-B Weld support recommends replacing the line or having it professionally welded. HighHeat is better suited to unpressurized repairs such as small muffler holes, brackets and filling on metal, ceramic and fiberglass.

Can cured HighHeat be sanded, drilled or machined?

Yes. Once fully cured, HighHeat can be shaped, filed, sanded and drilled. Its tensile strength is 4730 PSI, and it contains a small amount of steel for strength but is not electrically conductive when cured. Wait for the full cure before machining it; working the repair early will tear it loose from the substrate.

What surfaces does HighHeat bond to, and does the surface need to be dry?

HighHeat bonds metal, aluminum, ceramic, brick, stone, fiberglass and many plastics. The surface must be clean, dry and scuffed; it will not adhere well to a wet or slick surface, so drain a coolant line before you apply it. It does not bond polypropylene or EPDM rubber. Sand with medium paper and wipe with acetone for the best grip.

How should I store my syringe between uses?

Store the syringe nose-up rather than lying on its side. Keeping it upright helps prevent the tips from becoming contaminated, so the product stays ready for your next repair.
