I know that there is a such thing as poly welding. I believe it uses
ultra-sound, not heat. Not sure what kind of PE it can weld. Look in the yellow pages for companies that make plastic tanks (welded, not molded) and give'm a call. They may know just what to do...or not. Call. Brian "Ron Thornton" wrote in message ... There is no reliable way to repair PE with glue, epoxy or otherwise. The only way to repair it that will last is to melt it together. A soldering iron may work on thin pieces but to get adequate penetration in the kind of thickness I think we are talking here, you need more heat. A heat gun with a funnel output or a plastic welding gun (preferred) is needed. Ron |
