Another Glue Q
I have 2 plastics I need to glue together
ABS pipe which is inserted into Polypropylene cast female sockets. The fitting is a close fit. Polypropylene is not an easy item to glue .... thought about using Loctite Plastic Bonding System (2-part) http://tinyurl.com/brfak4z It seems capable - but when I Googled the comments were immediate grab, no repositioning .... which would mean being able to push pipes into sockets would be a problem. If it were ABS-ABS then normal solvent would be fine ...but it is no good on Polypropylene |

Might get away with it provided the clearance really is small. A strategy which I have found works well in the past is to wind overlapping layers of stretched PVC tape over the joint. You could do this in addition to glueing. |

You couldn't run with a simple friction fit? For gluing, I assume you know to very lightly sand them first. NT |

Will it be under pressure pushing it apart or under vacuum pulling it together? Might not need gluing if latter? -- Jim K ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- http://usenet.sinaapp.com/ |
