FiberFlex Plastic Welding Rod, Flat Ribbon, 30 ft., Black

If you do any plastic welding then FiberFlex is the stuff to have around, because it is so versatile. You can patch up about anything with it and it really works good with the reinforcement materials, like mesh screening and such. It is a must have item to melt things back together.

GREAT PRODUCT

This will melt into that old dash pad foam, and can be shaped immediately. It made restoring the pad a breeze.

Polyvance makes great products. These rods along with their steel mesh are still holding the floor together in my RZR after an A-arm ripped through it. 3 years strong.

Easy to use

Extremely Happy is all I can say. I have welded my lower bumper (fiber reinforced bumper) with these rods on my Prostar after a deer strike shattered it into many pieces. Low and behold, someone backed into us and craked the bumper a second time 2 weeks later. i was surprised to find that none of the welds cracked, but it cracked in all new places. I welded it up in all the new places, smoothed it all out, re-painted it again,.. all is good now.

Overall, this material works well. It was able to "stick" reliably to some hard plastic that I was trying to repair. Unfortunately, it wasn't as durable (hard? Tough? resistant to breaking?) as I had imagined it would be from reading the manufacturer's description (from Urethane Supply's website). The item that I repaired broke off at the original site from stress. Obviously, this wan't a fault of the product as the original item had broken from stress at the same site. I thought from the description that the product would be a lot tougher than the normal polypropylene or polyethylene I had tried to repair. It does adhere to those substances as advertised -- while it broke at the stress site, the fiber flex substance itself did not tear away from the host item.

Using these to plastic weld have made temporary repairs into permanent repairs. If you do any type of repair work on plastic parts, these are a must use item!
