Devcon® Plastic Steel® Putty (A)

DEVCON Plastic Steel Putty A is a steel-filled epoxy repair compound designed for rebuilding, repairing, and restoring damaged metal components. Its putty consistency allows it to be applied to irregular surfaces and used for filling cracks, holes, voids, worn areas, and other localized damage.
After curing, the compound forms a strong, durable repair that can be machined, drilled, tapped, or ground, making it suitable for restoring components to their required dimensions and fit.
Key Features
Steel-filled epoxy repair compound
Excellent adhesion to properly prepared metal surfaces
Suitable for rebuilding worn or damaged components
Can be machined after curing
Useful for filling cracks, holes, pits, and voids
Suitable for industrial maintenance and repair
Helps extend the service life of damaged equipment
Typical Applications
DEVCON Plastic Steel Putty A can be used for repairing and rebuilding machine housings, pump bodies, valve components, pipes, flanges, equipment bases, shafts, castings, and other metal parts.
It is particularly useful for maintenance applications where replacing a component or carrying out conventional welding is difficult, time-consuming, or impractical.
Surface Preparation
For optimum bonding, the repair surface should be clean, dry, and free from oil, grease, rust, paint, and other contaminants. Mechanical abrasion or suitable surface preparation should be used to create a good bonding profile. Proper preparation is essential for achieving a long-lasting repair.
Industrial Applications
The compound is suitable for industrial machinery repair, pump and valve refurbishment, manufacturing equipment, engineering components, maintenance workshops, and general metal restoration.
Benefits
DEVCON Plastic Steel Putty A provides a convenient method for rebuilding damaged metal surfaces and restoring worn components. Once cured, the repair can be machined to achieve the required dimensions, helping reduce equipment downtime and avoid complete component replacement.
