In such cases, waiting for a replacement part is not an option. The goal is to restore operation quickly and safely until a permanent repair can be scheduled.
Weicon quick repair solutions are designed exactly for these moments, offering industrial-grade materials for fast, reliable temporary fixes.
Where does a Weicon quick repair kit come in handy?
- Repairing cracks and wear on metal components such as housings, tanks, and brackets.
- Temporary sealing of leaking pipes until the replacement arrives.
- Reinforcing small broken or loose parts under moderate load.
- On-site or mobile service where quick intervention prevents longer downtime.
The main goal: keep production running. Quick repair doesn’t replace proper maintenance – it buys you the time to plan it.
The three pillars of Weicon quick repair
1) Surface preparation – Weicon Super Clean
Durable bonding always starts with a clean surface. Weicon Super Clean removes oil, grease, and dirt residues from metals, plastics, and glass.
It evaporates quickly and leaves no residue, ensuring maximum adhesion for any repair compound or adhesive.
2) Material restoration – Weicon Epoxy stick
The two-component, hand-kneadable Weicon Epoxy Stick is ideal for filling cracks, holes, and worn areas.
The copper-filled version adheres strongly to copper and bronze and can be used for tanks, housings, pipes, and valves.
Once cured, it can be drilled, sanded, and painted, and is resistant to water, oil, and many chemicals.
3) Fast bonding – Weicon Fast-Metal instant adhesive
For smaller parts or quick fixes, Weicon Fast-Metal provides high-strength bonding in seconds.
It works on metal, plastic, rubber, and even glass, offering shock and vibration resistance for urgent on-site applications.
Practical workflow – how to make quick repairs last
- Assess the damage: is it a load-bearing part or a surface defect? Use quick repair only for non-critical areas.
- Clean the surface: apply Super Clean for oil-free, dry surfaces.
- Apply material: shape and press the epoxy stick into the damaged area, or use Fast-Metal adhesive as needed.
- Finish: once cured, sand, drill, or coat the area as required.
- Document: mark it as a temporary fix and schedule permanent maintenance.
Build your own Weicon quick repair kit
This is not a pre-packed product – it’s a professional recommendation.
Your kit should match your machinery and working environment.
A good starting combination includes:
- Weicon Super Clean – for surface cleaning and degreasing.
- Weicon Epoxy Stick – for filling cracks or leaks on metal parts.
- Weicon Fast-Metal – for quick bonding or emergency fixes.
You can complement it with threadlockers, sealants, or other Weicon adhesives depending on the task.
When is quick repair enough and when isn’t it?
Effective situations:
- Replacement parts are not immediately available.
- The damage is local and surface-level.
- The repair area can be properly cleaned and prepped.
Not suitable for:
- Structural or load-bearing components with cracks.
- Surfaces that are heavily contaminated or corroded.
- Damage caused by geometric misalignment or high dynamic load.
Good maintenance isn’t just about repair – it’s about readiness.
A well-prepared Weicon quick repair kit can save an entire shift and give your team time to fix things properly later.
