Reply To: Muggyweld die cast soldering rod

I don’t know about the Muggy Weld stuff, but assume that it’s the same as the “how too” video… the pop can welding demo. I have used this rod to make several repairs , some rather structural. Understand that this rod is basically zinc. It’s significantly harder than aluminum and after a short while the color does not match alum, it’s darker grey. It takes practice… heat control and cleanliness are the secrets to success. Clean all parts well, I keep a dedicated stainless steel wire brush just for this work… CLEAN. .It’s fun to play with, and practice. The materials are inexpensive.. proficiency will prove handy.
