Weld for plastic?
I need to wels 2 pieces of plastic on a kirby vacuum cleaner, I am not
sure what type of plastic it is ABS or polycarbonate. I was wondering if this would be suitable. The joint is a good fit and probably not under pressure. Any thoughts on this or another type? Weld On WO-611 Solvent Cement 250ml https://www.screwfix.com/p/weld-on-w...FaqpUQodTL0Hzg |

However modern stuff is mostly polypropylene and that is difficult to glue, no solvent type cement available. -- Chris Green · |
