I was wondering if it is worth buying a few sticks and giving it a go =>
Any one here already tried the stuff?[/QUOTE]
Bloomin he'll that looks too good to be true! It's almost worth getting to just play with! I'll pass this link on to a blacksmith friend and see what he thinks.

It gets pretty good reviews on the welding forums.
The main complaint is hardness difference compared to the Base metal so any stress cracks are likely to just pop up somewhere else and the far lower melting point means it has heat critical limitations.
I love the thread repair

Was it you that posted about a snapped bell housing lug? I was trying to remember after seeing this.
Some in house reviews would be good

Good find. Definitely worth getting some if it works.

I've just ordered some on flea bay - should be here in Holland by the end of the month!
If any one gets them before me, feel free to tell me if I need to get a refund or not...
...I'll do some pictures of the repairs I've got planned and see how I get on with them.
Some guys on the series 2 club forum are not so keen on this product - but others say they've done well - the main concern seems to be removal of the HTS alloy if you've put too much on.

Worth a nose around on the welding forums.
1st hand users rate it pretty high though apparently it's difficult to use on non horizontal surfaces.
It's alloy brazing rod with flux. The old stuff i used you had to use Borax paste as a flux. Piece being joined or repaired has to be immaculately clean.
