Product Description

Low desnity polyethylene (LDPE) plastic welding rods
Welding rod profiles and plastic welders

Low Density Polyethylene Plastic Welding Rod - Made in USA

Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) is used in some underhood areas such as windshield washer bottles and radiator overflow tanks. In non-automotive applications, it is used on ATV fenders, kayaks, canoes, dirt bike fenders and gas tanks, motor home water tanks, and agricultural water/fertilizer tanks. Because Polyethylene is very waxy, it is almost impossible to get quality repairs using adhesives. Welding is the best repair method for polyethylene.

  • Works with airless, hot-air, and nitrogen plastic welders.

Plastic is plastic and if you do not have a specific need of the size of the rod the price is too high for the quantity.

Used to repair a 25 gallon sprayer tank for my yard. They worked well when put on and have stayed in place, with no leaks

I needed the correct polymer for my water storage tank. These strips were used to repair cracks. Worked fine

I've used these sticks for a variety of crafts projects. However, the title is a little confusing. IMO, it should read:(My addition in brackets [] )"POLYETHYLENE FLAT STICK (LDPE) 3/8" X 1/16" [X 12", 5 PIECES], Natural"

Didn't work for me. Fresh water tank in a RV had a very small leak. Product would not stop the leak.Used plastic epoxy instead.

These worked perfectly using an iron. I filled holes in a yeti 350 tundra cooler i picked up for $300. I used spray foam in the holes and then welded the hole using these strips. It sealed the holes without an issue and hardened up as strong as the cooler itself. i used about 4 pieces for each 1 inch hole (4 holes that were drilled in to cooler) and built it up then sanded them to make it flush with the cooler.

Product was supposed to patch cracks and small holes. I was able to patch a 3 inch diameter hole in my agricultural sprayer with ease and 100% seal. I will no longer buy adhesive plastic repair kits. Would recommend to a friend and purchase again.
