Can this epoxy be used to fasten steel studs to the underside of a stone counter to support an undermount sink?

I doubt that it will work. Stone is generally very smooth and depending on the size of the stud you probably won't have enough surface contact. The epoxy is very powerful. I have poured it on plastic plates to mix and have lifted it off when it was cured because of the smooth surface.

I don't know but most likely yes. I used it to bond aluminum to aluminum. It is an excellent - strong epoxy

I don't see why not...I'm a licensed plumber and purchased this for a vessel sink. You'll most likely want the version with the overflow though, since most under-mount sinks typically have an overflow hole. It wont affect the performance during normal usage, however if the sink filled to the overflow hole, it wouldn't work properly with this drain. But the simple answer to your question is most likely yes. They are all standard sized holes 1-3/4" diameter.

I belive it would work fine for that application. In my use of loctite, I found it to having too long of a drying time. So that being said, take care when installing the sink. Make sure it is not disturbed "Moved around" for at least 24 hours.

Sort of. Out of box the setup is for a masonry mount. I see no reason it could not be used into studs with different hardware but you would really need to know what you are doing as this is fairly heavy unit with not a very broad attachment plate so could put a lot of stress on the screws

Geez, the distance wouldn't be a problem so I guess it would depend on what you'd want to use for anchors and hardware. I'm not overly familiar with metal studs. If you're confident you have a good solid hardware that would fit the bill I'd say it'd be no problem. Is it in an exposed application or covered in drywall?

I don't think so. The magnets just work to find the drywall screws that have been hidden under thin layer of paper and spackle. But they do that pretty well. It would be great for locating the studs so that you can attach the braced that hold the cabinets, but not through extra layers of material. I would recommend buying extra magnets. This is a good gadget for your toolbox, and not to expensive either.

I don't see why not. As long as the screws are the right diameter, and the screw heads fit down into the countersunk holes, it should work fine. I would recommend either galvanized or stainless screws. The bolts that came with mine are already showing some surface rust. I will probably replace them in the near future.

Would work fine for that application. It will need to be secured into a wall stud.

I've not tried it, but assume if attached securely to studs behind drywall it would work.

Our granite guy mounted with block supports and a very strong epoxy. I would think under butcher block you could drill brackets right into the countertop for additional support

I am not sure but I did find this link that may be helpful. http://www.terrylove.com/forums/showthread.php?23567-undermount-sink-with-tile-countertop

Eileen - it is certainly possible, but only if you are able to move the wood so it is flat and level. This epoxy is far too viscous to apply it vertically as you could with a wood putty. Here is an example of how I encased a U-bolt inlayed into the bowplate of a canoe I built: http://i.imgur.com/t2hfEF9h.jpg Good luck!

Depending on the size of hole that is needed. It could be used in such a manner. Using it for Tap-Con screws, drop-in anchors, etc.

Yes, I use this in my cabinet business for just this purpose. Remember to carefully prop open this affected area, apply to both surfaces, and let it dry before you press together. Position carefully as it will be nearly impossible to change. The bond will be immediate.

Hello - Yes, this sink is designed specifically for under-mount installations. This is where your granite, quartz, or solid surface covers the top of the sink. If you are installing laminate tops, you will need to search for a "drop-in" sink.

Yes. I bought this for my undermount sink and it worked perfectly. My sink has a built in overflow though. Bought a second one for the guest bath too :)
