Polyethelene(PE or "Poly") Body Repair

-Only repair Polyethelene with Polyethelene
-Heat an iron to 475-525 degrees
-Apply heated iron to both surfaces simultaneously(one side of iron to damaged body and one side to repair piece)
-Be sure not to melt completely through the surface to be repaired
-A 1/8 inch bead around the edge of the iron is what you want to achieve
-After both surfaces get a good melt, press together with 50lbs of pressure and hold for approximately 30 seconds or until cool
*BE SURE NOT TO BURN YOURSELF WITH THE IRON OR HOT PE

I have heard a lot of people asking about fusing polythelene plastic to repair thier machines so I decided to ask my dad, who is certified to fuse polyethelene plastic pipe for the gas company, to write down what he thought would be useful to know when repairing a polyethelene body.
