Like another posts stated it's the name is actually Devcon. I was first introduced to it in the Navy back in the 80's. In all it's incarnations it's basically just a two part epoxy with each kind geared toward a specific use. The kind we had (forget the type, it was too long ago) we used mainly to repair cracks, etc in piping systems aboard ship where it wasn't possible to pull in welder leads, or to properly weld the piping material with the equipment we had on hand. That was it's best thing about the kind we used, it could be used on steel, brass, or whatever base material the pipe happened to be made out of. The main thing we had to be careful of was insure the presure rating and temp of the system wasn't outside the range allowed by the epoxy. There are alot of different kinds of Devcon for various applications like hardfacing a part, repairing a grooved or worn shaft, or crack repairs like we did. There are also other brands out there that have their own unique characteristics for use in these same kinds of applications as well as others. The main thing is to know what you want to do and don't be afraid to call the tech lines to find the proper material to use, wether it's a Devcon product or another brand.
