Polyvance Polyethylene Strip (Ldpe,) 3/8" X 1/16", 1 Lb., Red (R04-04-04-RD)
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. Polyethylene is naturally a translucent white color. Red pigment has been added to make less visible repairs when welding red polyethylene parts. This package contains 1 lb. (0.45 kg) of red low-density polyethylene (LDPE) strips. Each rod is 1 ft. (30 cm) long and 3/8th inch (9.5 mm) wide by 1/16th inch (1.6 mm) thick. There are approximately 90 welding rods in 1 lb. (0.45 kg).
Works with airless, hot-air, and nitrogen plastic welders.
Square edge profile resists curling during repair process.
Red pigment added to make repairs less visible on red plastic.
