Massca Plastic Welding Kit - Plastic Welder, Rods, Mesh, Stand & Brush - DIY Repair Kit for Bumpers & Surfaces - Portable 80W

I wish Amazon would stop selling 120V electrical devices, in this 240V land of ours.

Used once unsuccessfully.

I first got the “gun” type. It worked ok but I got cramp from constantly holding the trigger, the handle was very hot, the tip was flimsy and the whole thing failed after one repair. I then got the “rod” type and it works much better. There’s no trigger or handle problems. The tip is much stronger and the plastic welding material melts better and can be manipulated much easier than that supplied with the other kit. I’ve saved hundreds fixing trash cans for rentals. I wish I had got this type first.

Je n'ai pas encore essayé ce produit donc pas de commentaire là dessus. En revanche, il n'est pas adapté au marché européen avec un voltage en 120V (240V en Europe): il nécessite un convertisseur de puissance à se procurer en plus. De outre, il ne me semble pas avoir lu dans l'argument de vente l'indication du voltage (qui en fait correspond au marché nord américain) et enfin, la prise électrique étant américaine il faut aussi se procurer un adaptateur. L'expérience client, comme on dit aujourd'hui, est à revoir...

Très utile pour réparer des flotteurs de quai

Heats up quickly and so far does small jobs without problems.

I needed to repair the tips of the black polypropylene truck bed rail caps on our 2019 F250 after I discovered they'd been badly deformed by an improper installation of a fiberglass bed topper while replacing the leaking weather seals. I attempted to buy two new caps for almost $300, but none were currently available and I needed to get the bed topper reinstalled. The thought hit me that perhaps there was a way to melt new plastic into the crushed areas, and I subsequently discovered this plastic welding kit while researching how to perform this type of repair. I was slightly apprehensive about the durability of the tips given some reviews, but even after multiple practice sessions on scrap items around the garage and performing the actual repairs the first tip is still in like-new condition (I'm thinking that it's possible some users accidentally bent the tip shafts by not giving the plastic rod sufficient time to fully melt and subsequently applied too much force on the tip in an attempt to spread the plastic rod material). The repaired areas aren't perfect, but after developing a nifty way to impart some suitable texturing on the "welded" areas by making a silicone stamp and carefully using a heat gun, from more than 2 feet away you can hardly tell that the tips of the caps had been restored! Anyone who has some experience with soldering, a modicum of technical and/or artistic aptitude, a bit of patience, and a willingness to spend a few minutes watching videos and practicing on common scrap plastic can likely achieve some amazing results with this kit. It came with a replacement tip, rudimentary rod stand, backing screen for filling larger voids, and enough plastic rod to do more repairs than I'll ever live long enough to attempt. I don't know how durable it will actually be, but for anyone who only needs to use it for minor repair projects once in a while, it appears to be a tool that could last quite a few years.
