Reply To: Muggyweld die cast soldering rod

[George Emmanuel]

Muggy Weld is an American company and their product is a bit different. They use a separate flux and the temp required is much less than the other products. They advertise it can be used for diecast, where the cheaper stuff doesn’t state that. Their kit is close to $100, which if it does what it is supposed to do, is worth it. I’ve got a American Swiss mag on a 1914 Wisconsin that the cam lever is missing due to breakage. I’ve fabricated an aluminum replacement but JB Weld wouldn’t stick to the die cast base.

I think I’m going to splurge and do some tests on some old scrap carbs to see how it does and I’ll report on the success or failure.
