- Flex Glue competes against JB Weld, Loctite, and Gorilla glue using wood, brick, PVC, and metal. Flex Glue and JB Weld are also used to glue an engine together. Will either product provide enough strength to allow the engine to run? Let's find out! I purchased all the products tested and I'm not sponsored by Flex, JB Weld, Loctite, Gorilla, or any other company or manufacturer. I do the best I can to provide unbiased and accurate testing.

There's nothing better then JB-WELD!!! ANNNND If you want to get technical, all of those glues are two parts, it's not one chemical in those glues, there's different chemicals in each one of those glues, so technically they are all two part systems!!
Have you thought about testing the different variations of JB Weld against each other? They have several different types. It would be nice to know how they stack up against each other. Thanks for the videos. They're great and I appreciate the time you put into them.
I'd like to see a no prep test with these products
@@picklerickdic8955 no they aren't a two part system requires mixing before application the other's dont a two part system has glue as one part and a activator in the other part

Tip for JB-Weld users: warm up the tubes in some hot water for a few minutes. Results in a significant reduction in viscocity, making it MUCH easier to squeeze out of the tubes.
J.B. Jiant Brain 🧠
Long time J.B. Weld user, but still amazed by the results. One application it's not suited for: muffler repair -- or any continuous exposure to very high heat. Very suited for some rather unorthodox repairs: I used it to seal up a turtle's shell that I apparently ran over with a bush hog and cracked it very severely, so that you could see his insides. By the time I found him, the flies had already blowed his innards, so I had to flush out the maggots with hydrogen peroxide. I always wondered if the repair worked to save his life, until I found him again over 3 years later, very much alive and kicking, J.B. Weld repair still intact. Needless to say, I named him J.B.
Repairing a turtle's shell--impressive!
Now that's a BIG scar to show off for mating!
This story made me quite happy. I'm always saving animals most people never give a thought about. Like nursing frogs back to health that had been injured by cats or caring for injured birds. It's the little things in life that make life worth living. I'll JB the next turtle I find! lol
@@Gruntsworth -- Good to hear. If you think the story made you happy, imagine me finding him alive over 3 years later. Fortunately it was in an isolated hay field, well off the road so no one could see. But, I'm sure I looked the perfect fool, jumping up and down, whooping and hollering, and dancing all about, all while holding J.B.up in the air waving him around. LOL And to think, all it took was a little turtle to make me feel so happy. Your sentiments are spot on.

Your control methodology is outstanding. The comparisons you make are about as fair as anyone could make them. Great work,
He is using different glue types so the test isnt valid. The contact adhesive Gorilla, The construction adhesive Loctite, the epoxy JB Weld, whatever FlexSeal is. This just tells us what glue type is better not what brand.
This guy must have a full month worth of hours into this video, I can’t even imagine all the time for all these tests and all the editing. You never cease to amaze me with all the hard work and all the hours you put in. Truly amazing! All the effort and thought you put into your content!

I had an old Escort with a crack in the oil pan that leaked a little bit of oil. I looked up how hot the oil pan gets when the engine is running and how much heat JB Weld can take. According to the internet JB can take the heat so I fixed the crack with it. It never leaked again during the time I owned it.
I did the same on a 1988 Ford f150 oil pan. Had like three places leaking and the jb did the job.
I read escort and crack and thought the presidents son was watching this channel

Ha, I see what you did there.
As a retired engineer, there are times I really wonder where you get your testing criteria for a given type of product, but to be fair, nobody can be an expert in everything. I've come to both appreciate and enjoy your tests. I guess what I'm saying, is that even though you're not an expert in everything, you do a pretty damn good job in creating interesting, informing and fun videos. Thanks and keep up the good work. Cheers, Dave
Thanks, will do!
damn skippy !
I grew up in a farming community turned oil exploration community. Farmers are freaking amazing.
Successful farmers must be near expert in several diverse domains, ever curious, simultaneously optimize their plans while planning & executing, boundlessly motivated by completing their tasks and projects, interleave and prioritize multiple plans together at any moment as conditions change.
While specialization is a great thing, having experience and knowledge in other domains help inform the former. The flexibility, agility of mind, critical thinking skills, and ability to research combined with enthusiastic work ethic is insatiable.
I know this is old as all hell, but do you have any suggestions or questions (mostly regarding specific videos, since his testing criteria changes depending on product type)? I am curious as while I do have a very limited engineering background, it's really more just enough to like, barely understand everything going on in the videos. For the most part, most of the things he tests, while I wouldn't have thought of, make sense. So I'm just wondering if there were something better he could be doing.
MAYBE "EXPERTS" AREN'T NECESSARYLY PRODUCT OF FORMAL SPECIALIZATION BUT OF A CREATIVE MIND !!
I've never cheered for a sports team the way I was cheering for good ole J.B.
Thank you! JB is a great product
Ikr. I was cheering for it, and right off the bat it did not disappoint me.

JB is whats holding together about 10-15 different pools I used to service in S. Oklahoma.
Yeah, i weld
Stick, mig or tig?

lol. Nice!
WHAT DID I SAY ??? Brolin replied sharply.
I've had someone ask me if JB weld is as strong as actual welds.
lets hear you when you can do Under Water Welding...
JB with "ice?"
I believe you use these videos as an excuse to dream up and create all the tests which is what you really love to do and we all love them too. Keep it up.
Thanks, will do!
I worked in an adhesive development company back in 1995 and basically we were trying to assemble an entire car excluding the engine with only glue glue adhesives are the future again your controls are amazing love your stuff
That's crazy 😂 what worked best back then?
When the material fails before the bond,that's pretty impressive.
Great point!
The material didn't fail first it was the bond. Look again. JB weld is still the best!!
At 115 lbs the glue failed and when the weights fell on the material, that's when it broke. Go back and look again, he shows you where the glue comes apart.
During weight test:
When he asks 'Can flex glue beat JB weild?'
Flex glue: *starts sweating Intensily*
Lol
really depends on what your doing with it... i wouldn't patch a roof with jb weld... i have used flex glue for that and its lasted 2 years.... though i wouldn't flex glue an alternator arm on... or patch an old steel radiator with it....
I have used JB Weld for the valves that had broken on several small engines a few times and they all still running today with the same valves I glued together. This was about 25 years back.
Thanks for sharing.
I couldn't help but laugh out loud in astonishment, I've used jb weld forever (like alot of DIYers) and always spoke of what it can do. To see it in action though in a clinical study almost, speaks for itself
Thanks for the feedback.
Yeah, me too. And I have to say... based on empirical evidence in this video... I suspect I'll be using JB for a lot of other things I "used to use" other products for.
I had a piece of stone break off my house when I hit it with the lawnmower so I immediately said to myself I bet project farm has a video on the best glue/adhesive and sure enough here I am.
Glad to hear!
STONE...I ALWAYS USE CEMENT CRACK FIX...IT HOLDS...ALL CONDITIONS...JB WELD IS EXPENSIVE...AND AMOUNT IS SMALL...HOWEVER...CEMENT CRACK REPAIR REALLY HOLDS SLUMP STONE AND OTHER ROCKS CLIPPED BY A TRACTOR OR CAR...
You know what else, you have to give credit to You Tube too,
"I need more weights." ... pauses video and heads to Home Depot to buy some JB Weld
Thanks for watching.
From my experience, it's even better than most other epoxies. Specifically talking about clear epoxies because I've never tried any other metal infused epoxy. It even stinks less than half the different kinds of epoxy I've tried.
@@jjhack3r JB Qwik stinks to high heaven. Smells like a fish market with no shade in 105⁰ heat
@@colster8049 well sure it doesn't smell good but at least it doesn't fill my house with stench. I only use original jb weld since qwik weld is far weaker.
Wow, I used to use JB Weld but switched to other products because of the A/B mix issue. You just taught me I need to always have it in my tool kit since there isn't anything else close to it's strength.
Thanks for the feedback.
If you're worried about the A/B mix, just use the JB Weld in the Mixer Syringe with the Static Mixers. You'll get a perfect mix every time, with no more worrying about a bad mix.
A/B mix glue in general are much better than air cured since they use dedicated hardener
I really appreciate your tests. You take such lengths to prep tests and give real world applications. You are so meticulous in all of your tests. What a great service you provide for so many.
Thanks and you are welcome!
Very impressive J,B,weld saved my life once!
I was out on my dirt bike riding when I crashed my bike.
I was at least 22 miles away from anyone or anything!
I'd broke my ankel and cracked 3 ribs.
My bike handle bars snapped right off. I had J,B,weld in my tool bag
Along with plires and a tire patch kit with my hand pump.
There was no way I could walk back to my truck.
I J,B, welded my handle bars and within a few hours, I was able to coast down a hill pop it in gear and
Ride back to my truck.
I was very happy I'd had my J,B,WELD with me that day.....
Impressive! Thanks for sharing this experience!
Thanks bro 👍
Wow, you should be in a commercial for jb!
And your ankle and ribs can now take a 100 lb length of railway...
Didn't save my life, but I did have a heavily modified '87 Honda Trx 250r that blew a hole through the crankcase out in the dunes. I had to tow it back to camp and I had some JB weld in my toolbag and said fuckit. I applied it, let it cure, applied another layer, let it cure again. I shit you not, I kicked the bike over and it ran with no issues ! Stayed together until I sold the bike a year later.
JB Weld user for life.
This video is just a testament to how good JB weld actually is.
Amazing product! Thank you
I'd definitely put my stamp of approval on it. Around 25 years ago I broke one of my golf clubs. Mainly because it was to long. So my old man shortened it and put it back together with JB Weld and after years of me using it and even my kids using it some, it is still holding together.
Or to how terrible gorrila glue is
@@JM-350 I'm impressed - thanks for commenting!
just stay away from anything with Gorilla in it!
Excellent video! Really enjoyed how you did your testing. Very well thought out and clearly a great visual representation.
Thank you very much!
JB Weld, which is an amine epoxy, is great- JB "Quick" which is polyester based (I think) is not good for much at all and looks similar (packaging) so choose carefully!
Well thank you for that. you saved me from a mistake :D
i misread this as anime epoxy and was extremely confused for a second
@@grexpex1807 I could see that as being a bit confusing! Amine epoxies are the ones that have a part A/part B rather than just a part A and a catalyst, they are typically mixed in ratios of 1:1 to 1:4 and the part B is most often an amine, like triethylene tetramine. They smell like corn chips, as opposed to polyester resin which usually smells like liquid styrene.
Crazy how good JB Weld is.
Amazing product. Thank you
Well, half of the J.B. Weld. At @5:18 it looks like the right seam failed.
Back when I was a mechanic there were stories of guys that used JB Weld to fix holes in engine blocks. Seems far-fetched until you use the product, it's nuts.
The Wakz I have seen it done on lawnmowers time and time again.
JB weld has been around since for ever. If it wasn’t a great product, it wouldn’t still be around.
The lesson we've learned so far on this channel is: Use JB Weld

Nah flex isnt meant for this kind of testing. Mostly marine stuff like advertized. I can bet you that flex wins with water tests, since well.. its designed for that.

I'd say JB Weld should sponsor you but the fact you aren't sponsored is what makes these videos so reliable and enlightening. Easily one of the best channels on youtube.
Thanks so much!
After a few years of watching Utube I have to say Project Farm is NUMBER ONE IN TESTING it is to bad that corporate America overall has NO ONE on the payroll that does any kind of testing , they make us consumers do their jobs, they just want bottom line profit... Back in the 60's and 70's almost every corporation had a quality control team today they use China and many times the Chinese factories will run an entire order and never do any testing nor do the assemble and test their products to see if it works for its intended purpose??? Yes I worked in China for a few years doing QC for an American company that cared and put thousands of dollars extra profit in their pockets every quarter...
Are you really this naive?

But there are many different brands of duct tape! You can't just say duct tape in general!
what about zipties
*Budweiser
And bailing wire.
I've been bingeing a ton of your videos the last several days and this was one of my favorites. Probably because I've always been a Gorilla fan and was so shocked to see how poorly it performed (I don't mind being proven wrong!). I would love to see an update to this video, either with additional types of adhesives or epoxies, or just with new fun tests!

Sooo JB weld for everything exept wood, gotcha.
Thank you
For wood, you really should use wood glue :P Seriously, I'd be interested to see how strong JB weld joins wood when not applied to the end grain. End grain is not a good place to apply adhesives without first preparing by sealing.
Liquid Nails for wood, Loctite is also a very good product adhesive ,believe it or not in the twenties and thirties and forties the only adhesive was black tar
For a long time there was just Elmers Glue also
Spreading the glue over 100% of the joints and clamping would make many of the glues, if not all of them, stronger. Many of the joints failed as easily as they did because of less than optimum gluing techniques. JB would still be the winner though, of these glues.
Great test! Amazing the way you do these.

*NEXT TEST: drill a hole in an engine block, seal it with JB Weld and see how long it will run*
Great video idea!
Done that to a hole in the oilpan, essentially the same thing. It worked great despite me using too little hardener. It cured with a droopy drop shape but lasted forever. 1980's era ford 302. JB weld baby!
MY friends ninja 300 was backed into and he sealed his valve cover with JB, i know its not a hole in the block but it still saw some heat and oil on it and held up fine
@John F. Bramfeld good question. After using too little hardener once I started following the directions scrupulously and mixing as long and vigorously as I could, the idea being to warm the mix some with friction. I always got good results doing that.

True story. I met a man named Larry in late 2018 in Encino, NM and we got talking about JB. He tells me a story about how when he was in the military in the 70's he had a filling come loose and was not near dentist/medic. He used JB weld to hold it in place temporarily till he could get it repaired properly. He still had it holding that filling in 2018 going strong.... I was mind blown by it
Thanks for sharing the story.
He probably lied. That tooth is probably rotten from the shoddy re-fitment when he glued the filling back.
Thank you so much! You should be sponsored by JD Weld! That was an awesome display of time and effort. We appreciate you.
You are welcome!
I love your videos. You are my go-to resource for product testing when I am shopping. Thank you and keep up the great work. JB Weld - Long live the king.
Thanks, will do!
JB Weld is such an amazing product. Now I understand why my father used it for everything.
Thank you!
This has to be one of the most entertaining and informative channels on CZcams. Bravo Sir.
Wow, thanks!
Great test of those products. I sent the link of this test to some of my buddies who are obsessed with fixing stuff (like I am).
Love your videos, extremally helpful and cost effective. Excellent work.
Thanks and you are welcome!
These companies must hate you lol
They probably do. I do the best I can to provide accurate and fair testing. I don't accept free products or any sponsorship from any company to avoid any pressure from corporations. My objective is simple: may the best product win! Thanks again!
well im sure jb weld doesnt!
@@ProjectFarm that's exactly why I love your videos. You a guy we can trust
Project Farm do you get offers all the time. That would be really cool if you did but you were more dedicated to being accurate instead of being pressured by a company who sends you free things
@@ProjectFarm good man
Goddamn. I just found this dude, and can't stop watching. He has the perfect voice, and everything about him and his channel is just perfect
Thanks so much!
Enjoy! Todd and Project Farm are legendary around these parts of the youtube!
I love it when that happens. I am currently binge-watching Lindybeige. Cheers!
Good find for sure.
He's the uncle we never had!
Wow this was a great eye opener! Thanks!
Thanks and you are welcome!
You have come so far from your first videos. Very impressive. Well done.
Thanks so much!
I think JB Weld needs to buy you a pickup truck or something, haha.
lol
I agree. Lol
You put that bearded guy to shame with the stupid boat made out of screen doors lol....
@@trentdawg2832 you will never speak that way about Billy Mays again. Got it? Good.
maybe they already did?
In 1998, My wife and I, on our honeymoon, did a 3500 mile drive around the western US in a Plymouth reliant. Near the town of Moab on a small mountain, I blew out the radiator on the up side. I had a couple of gallon jugs in the car (I have no idea why) and stopped at a stream and filled them up and kept filling the radiator until we got to moab. Once in the parking lot of an auto parts store (that closed in 15 minutes), I saw that the seam between the cooling part and the large end pice (the radiators are tilted 90 degrees from what you normally would see) hat split and, at the top it was at least a 1/4 inch gap. got me some JB Weld. We then went to the grocery store and got a six pack of coke in cans and a pair of scissors. We dumped the coke (we don't drink soda) and used the scissors to cut them into rectangular aluminum sheets. I bent them into an L shape, slathered on a thick coating of JB weld and pressed them into place.
We only let it set for two hours because we had to get to the California coast. To be safe, we had the jugs of water and another package of JB weld and the cans.
Well, we made it to Mt Shasta before it started to show signs of leakage. The JB Weld had not been given the opportunity to fully set, so I was still pleased with that. It had become like chunks of rubber. I pulled it all off, did it again, and this time it sat overnight. We finished the trip, returned home to seattle, and replaced the radiator, though it never leaked.
Impressive repair!
You should have bought the radiator in Moab. EVERY parts store had/has K-Car radiators in stock!
Good story about JB Weld®, though!
Plymouth Reliant? Now you know why they stopped making that model....
My grandpa has reliant k, 1981 he gave it to me with 285K miles on it. I gave it to my cousin 2 years later, he drove it at least another few years. not sure if finally bit it or if he just sold it. Either way it was a reliable ass car ;)
Wait.. you don’t drink soda?
You do something very few others ever do, you make real world applications that people might actually use it for. Most testers are all digitized which is neat, but no one ever shows you how YOUR project might turn out if you do this.
So, thank you, for such an ingenious yet simplistic real world array of testing.
Thanks and you are welcome!
Was searching for water pressure plastic to brass. Great video thanks
You are welcome! Thanks for the suggestion.
I was rooting hard for JB. Nice xD.
I glued a couple of pennies on the curb in front of my friends house in Jb weld as a kid. I am 24 and they are still there
Awesome! Thank you
Got you beat my high school had to replace an entire locker row because someone ticked me off and I jb welded their locker shut
I wonder how many people have tried to pick those pennies up over the years
“I just can’t recommend Gorilla Glue”
Gorilla Glue: *sad gorilla noises*
Thank for watching.
@@ProjectFarm My friend you didn't wet the surfaces or clamp down the gorilla glue, both are required for it to work. The water activates it, when activated it expands and the pieces need to be clamped together. I'd suggest you try again with the Gorilla Glue. :)
@@ProjectFarm Be careful what you say about gorilla, you might get the gorilla glue gorilla after you.
That's because his test isnt accurate when ig comes to the gorilla. Gorilla has a 2 part mix weld like the jb weld. He should've used that gorilla product instead. Then he could've compared them. It wasnt a fare comparison
@@hectorcolon4346 czcams.com/video/XObmZIbHOzY/video.html
JB weld original and the Devcon were at a close tie, but the gorilla epoxy still lost.
Those were some really great, well thought out, tests!
Thanks!
