Is this a hoax or has anyone ever used it?

I have used a similar product with fair results. Not for all applications.

I have tried them with mixed results.

I have some sticks at home and they work like brazing only on aluminum. Never had a need for them but I did weld a couple of Coke cans together.
Worth having a couple around just in case. I did mine with a MAP torch, but the cans are thin and heat real quick.

There are lots of different compositions of aluminum to deal with.

 

[models916]

Doesn't matter about the alloy. These sticks are topical like brazing iron.

Must be good stuff if different porositys don't affect results.

I wouldn't expect porosity to affect results because temps for brazing won't be melting the metal and causing it to flow. Rather, just heating it up enough to bond the brazing material. Once you get a porous material to heat up and melt, then you have problems with expanding air pockets, collapsing empty spaces, etc.

I found they are good for welding up holes in beer cans but why

To fill the cans up with more beer?
