Plastic Pointers #13 - Cracked Pool Pump Cap

John repairs a cap for a pool pump using the nitrogen plastic welder. We've repaired at least 5 of these now. After putting up a blog post and short social media video, people have asked us how to do the repair and several have mailed the part to us for repair. It is also possible to do this repair with a Polyvance airless plastic welder, R18 glass reinforced polypropylene welding rod, and 2045 stainless steel reinforcing mesh.

Good job mash'Allah

I know you've probable said things 1000 times but a new person would like to hear a narration... What did you clean it with, what staples, how deep, what kind of tap, on and on and on. Sure its interesting to watch but not near as informative as it could have been.

Hi! Yes, these videos are designed to be entertaining and not as informative as our other videos. We have so many tutorials on plastic welding already, these "Plastic Pointers" are just a change of pace. :) The products we used are in the description and in the video. We cleaned with 1000 Super Prep plastic cleaner. We also carry a zero VOC cleaner called EcoPrep. We just used one of the flat staples that comes with the stapler. The staples are part numbers 6211 and 6214. They were placed deep enough to hold the plastic together, but not so deep that they were difficult to get out. I'm guessing you mean tape instead of "tap"? We used the 6485 aluminum tape. If you meant something else, please let me know. Feel free to look at our nitrogen plastic welding tutorials. We've repaired a variety of things over the years: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6uTknWoech0l5o
