metal epoxy for pot metal - mrbigstuff - 01-27-2016
well, one part pot metal, the other stainless.
threads at one end of this no longer hold the top handle.
it's from this thing:

1) Contact manufacturier. Worst they can say is "nope."
2) Try a cold weld, like JB Weld.
3) New pot!
I'm presuming there's no viable way to re-tap the threads.

nah, I wouldn't buy a new pot over that, I'll gaffer tape that sucker before I spend $20 for a pot that is, otherwise, in excellent shape.

If it isn't corroded inside of the handle, just about any "metal" rated epoxy should work.

Vote #2 for JB Weld.
