Ingenious Method !! Repair All Plastic Parts Using Cable Ties.

In this video I show you a super easy method of how to weld plastic using only a candle and cable ties or ties or straps as they are known in various countries. Unlike other methods to weld plastic with a heat gun or to repair plastic with a soldering iron, with this method you will not need any special tools. Since plastic parts are everywhere both at home and in the workshop, it may always be necessary to repair some car or motorcycle plastic. Now you can weld car plastics or repair motorcycle plastics or any broken and cracked plastic items and parts instead of throwing them away. Easily repair your cracked plastic parts and items with plastic welding. If you're wondering how to repair broken plastic, be sure to watch the plastic repair video. In this video I will show you how to repair your broken plastic parts using the plastic welding method.

Wow, what a brilliant and creative solution! I'm truly impressed by your ingenuity in using cable ties to repair plastic parts. It's amazing to see how you've found a practical and cost-effective way to fix things.

[@evilsharkey8954]

Make sure you’re using the same type of plastic. Cable ties are typically nylon. Component covers can be ABS, polypropylene, polystyrene, or other plastics. Plastics will weld best to their own kind.

[@scottw550]

Ótima dica, Obrigado.

So in short, this method is bullshit and with those molten cable ties you can't repair anything (but another cable tie) :P

I've experimented with plastic welding and find some useful tips here. In my experience the chemical composition of both repaired part and any filler should be similar. I even use a piece from the part that will not show. That way I know I have compatibility for good bonding and a good color match.

I would also add, with so much plastic garbage pieces everywhere, why waste a zip tie?

[@MarcosElMalo2]

@@greenbluemonkey very easy to hold among other reasons. Environmentally, the benefits of repair far outweigh the environmental cost of a part of a a zip tie.

[@greenbluemonkey]

@@MarcosElMalo2 You are melting it on a spoon. It doesn't have to be a long thin shape. You can even shave it into small pieces. Also, one day you will need a zip tie and if you've used them for repair, you have to go buy more. So you aren't really reducing the plastic in the world. While using a similar plastic piece from a discarded or broken plastic toy or other object, is re-purposing something that will just end up in the land fill.

[@chrismaggio7879]

I extended the life of my Jeep radiator that was leaking from the plastic outlet at the top by doing something similar. I used a soldering tip to make a V groove along the crack, melted in the zip ties, then dis several layers over it with more zip ties, a layer of fiberglass cloth (just a small strip) then used JB weld for plastic, another layer of fiberglass cloth (wider this time) then another layer of JB, and on top of that one more layer of each really wide across the outlet. Lasted another YEAR!

[@markk3652]

Wouldn't replacement of the radiator been a better option? I understand being away from home on a trip in a remote area and having to fashion a repair to get home. Leaving it cobbled together for an entire year seems like a poor plan of let's see how long we can kick the can down the road.

[@chrismaggio7879]

@@markk3652 haha yes, if it was my only vehicle I would have done a replacement asap, but at first it was a personal challenge to see if it was possible. I watched a few online self fixes and thought I might have a better way, and just had to test it. I think it was successful in both the method and the result. I kicked the can a good distance and now I have confidence in the job I did. I installed a new radiator and with it came no fear of driving her any where I want. Sometimes, Mark, a guy just has to try the hard way and hope the results earn him a cold beer and a story to tell.

[@mikethespike7579]

Cable ties are made of nylon and that piece of plastic is probably ABS or similar, so the bond won't be so good. Also the parent material here wasn't heated to melting temperature to assure a maximum bond. So I'm not sure this repair job will hold for long. I've had good experience repairing damage of ABS parts using 2K resin or glue.

You should have made the hole round with a shallow countersink. The counter sink would have given more area of bond for the new added material.

I have had great luck with feeding pieces of plastic coat hanger through a hot glue gun. Patches of paper or cotton cloth on either side can help with adhesion and structural unity and can be sanded off later. I've used large cable ties in my hot glue gun as well, but most string very badly and make a mess.

[@canuckfixit7722]

Better than using epoxy (JB Weld). Zip ties are nylon and the plastic part to be repaired is probably ABS or PVC so decent compatibility there.

[@dtester]

In this situation I'd use JB weld. So much easier for similar results.

[@canuckfixit7722]

@@dtester Correct because this is a hole that the JB Weld would mechanically "lock" into position even if the epoxy wouldn't properly bond to the plastic body. In some other instances this plastic method of soldering/brazing would definitely be better than epoxy and would tolerate bending.

[@nynoah]

Heres another plastic hack to go with it. Find stainless metal mesh. cut a small piece. Heat it red hot. Press it into the plastic midway. Then add melted zip tie material.

[@Lumberperson]

You'll probably never see this, although you gave me an idea that you could use in a video. An all in one patch for olastic surfaces. 1. Put a piece of foil over a candle 2. Put plastic scraps on the foil to melt 3. Quickly take the foil with melted plastic and turn it upside down, molten plastic side down, and push into a cracked part of plastic to mend it in one go.
