Grenade. Boo hoo! Boo hoo!
Only a weld will suffice. Corner, stress point, pressurized.

You're going to be kicking yourself when that fails in the middle of BFE. A skilled TIG welder can handle that easily in far less time than it will take for the epoxy to dry, and likely cheaper than the cost of the epoxy.

All I can say is that I hope your DevCon Titanium Putty performs WAY BETTER than the project I used DevCon 5minute Epoxy on today! Followed directions, components used are listed as compatible........

Massive fail!

Dave, I'm disappointed in you! By this time you should know that five minute epoxy is for guitar inlays and repairing your wife's earrings... Cool

I've never used it.
It was one of the manufacturers recommended adhesives for a task I did.

I won't be rushing to use it again.
