I wish it were that simple. Super Glue (cyanoacrylate) adhesives don’t
have the adhesion, flexibility, heat or chemical resistance needed for this
type of application.
Neat tool. At $68.95+ $14 shipping =$82.95.
I did a search on ebay and found a brand new radiator for my 2003 Chevy
Tracker for $67 with FREE SHIPPING! I installed a NEW radiator for $15 LESS
than buying your neat tool.
🙂
Just sayin…
Jay Cee, where are you seeing $207???
$68.95

that guitarist and band kicks azz.
Great video!
Nice tool.
can’t you just use super glue? I need to repair mines!
what if I don’t want it to look like shit?
Is there a way to swap the plastic part with another plastic part
Quake 2 soundtrack?
Great video.
I’m not knocking H. Freight, but I’ve been using U.S.C. for many years now,
and you definitely get what you pay for. U.S.C. is a repair industry
standard, their products can/should not be compared to inferior products.
me too.. had a new one shipped and installed myself.. first time.. i
searched videos on youtube on how to do it..also forum specifically for
your make/model provide extensive info. plus pictures..
You can do the same thing with a cheap soldering iron and some plastic
pieces of the same plastic or you can get the plastic welding sticks at
Harbor Freight.
Instead of 1 big floppy sabotage-prone radiator, use a few large heater
cores instead. They use more hoses, but should work the same. Wonder when
they will start making plastic oil pans?
music sucked ass, cool tool
Is this a commercial for a plastic radiator repair kit or the band playing
the repetitious riff? The music was very annoying but wouldn’t be AS BAD if
it wasn’t so overbearing. (The vid would be better without it at all
though.) Critiques aside, the information was what I was looking for, so
thanks for the instruction!
how do you know what type of stick to USE=? in the radiator wheres the code
of the plastic????????????? the radiators have that kind of info on the
tanks?
Thanks. It’s a mid OOP 90’s Ford heavy duty truck overflow tank. Do you
have kits with the polyethylene rods?
that idea or fixing it might works with the bottom plastic tank only , the
top one gets hot water over than 77 c , so the material you use will be
liquid after you drive your car , its better to replace the plastic tank
all over . you could find it in the market .
the plastic welder is $207USD, i can buy a brand new radiator for my car
for $107AUD on ebay….. so not worth it
new radiators are cheap on ebay…
MEK is Methyl Ethyl Ketone, a strong solvent for plastics, and yes, it
works great on styrenes. Methylene Chloride is a chlorinated solvent that
is a good solvent for aliphatic hydrocarbons, but not so for plastics.
Nylon is very stable around most solvents, though many can weaken it, so
you’re right, welding is all you can do with it.
Thanks for the support! We try to make the best repair products out there
and we stand behind our products and repair techniques. Plus, most of our
products are made right here in the USA, not imported!
in your opinion. In mine it is awesome. The hair cut in your avatar is
awful – in my opinion.
SOMEWHAT INFORMATIVE….COULD DO WITHOUT THE HEAD BANGING SHIT.
quake music all the way, dont listen to ’em ;D
Old hot water heaters are glass filled these are simple nylon tanks that
just cut down on Mfg. Cost and weight so idk what ur trying to say and if
you can buy a Original Equipment radiator for less than this cost you need
to go into the radiator business I am a wholesale dealer for any kind of
cores tanks radiator shop tools an can’t buy just the tanks or cores for
less than 100 bucks seems like very affective product used many times on
500-700 horsepower rock buggies
yes, but it will be a little more challenging. You will also need some R06
Nylon welding rod.
Please stop with the Junior High music…!!!
Hot glue? LOL Are you for real? Not only will hot glue not make a strong
enough bond to the plastic, but it would melt the instant the vehicle
warmed up.
