Question by Aaron: What is the best way to fix a crack in a HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) tank, glue or plastic welding?
I have been researching what the best method is to fix a crack in a HDPE tank.
Some sources say it can not be glued and that plastic welding is the only answer, I have found several products that claim to work for polyethylene. I wanted to know if anyone has used any of these products with HDPE or PE with any success.
Products that claim to work:
Plastex 3000
Loctite Plastic Epoxies
Innterduct HDPE Glue
If anyone can tell me if they have used any of these or suggest another product that does work for HDPE that would be great.
I talked with someone from the makers of plastex 3000, he says that it will work with HDPE that BS? Anyone use it before?
