Re: Dura Fix
We used Dura Fix rods to repair a hole in a brass radiator for a friends street rod. 15,000 miles later and still holding on. 
Obviously no replacement for a good TIG but has its uses and works well. Have also used this stuff on small brackets and such that wont see a very high stress load and they are also holding up just fine. Ive used straight M-Gas on it, take a bit to heat up but will work just fine, that Mapp and Oxy setup is like one we have works great.

It was sooo ignorant it, I just couldn't think straight. :1 So everyone who owns a TIG this isn't ac/dc just throw the ---- away. Cause it's worthless and your retarded for wasting your money on it only being able to weld steel.

Sure it will cast more but well worth it if you know how to weld and have used diffrent machines and you know the diffrence from worthless to worthly.
