Anyone any experience of repairing aluminium tubing with this stuff?
I have some cracks in a 2" aluminium tube seam and wondered if this was
suitable over the more conventional tig welding.

I've used a similar product from Machine Mart, and it does work provided
you clean the surfaces very thoroughly and get the workpiece hot enough.

I can't vouch for the strength of the weld, because I used it on a very
lightly stressed component.

I'll be interested to know if you try, because I have some sitting in my
"That looks useful" box waiting for an application!

Sorry chickened out - used a tig welder instead - better to be safe than
sorry!
