Product Features
- Available in 3 mm round profile for fine, detailed welding and lighter fabrication work.
- Available in 4 mm round profile for higher build-up and heavier-duty welds.
- Supplied in a 2 kg coil for extended welding runs with fewer changeovers.
- Manufactured from flexible PVC for compatible bonding with PVC components and sheets.
- Consistent round profile for smooth feed through hot air welders and extrusion tools.
- Black colour for discreet, professional-looking welds on dark or black PVC substrates.
Key Features and Benefits
- Ensures strong, homogeneous welds when used with compatible PVC parts, helping extend the service life of repaired items.
- Flexible PVC formulation helps absorb minor movement and impact without cracking at the weld line.
- Round profiles in 3 mm and 4 mm offer versatility for both precision work and higher-volume fill or overlay welds.
- Supplied as a 2 kg coil, reducing downtime for rod changes and improving workflow efficiency.
- Black colour helps to conceal welds on matching substrates, supporting a tidy and professional finish.
- Precision-extruded for dimensional consistency, reducing feed issues and helping achieve uniform weld beads.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this welding rod be used with any type of plastic?
No, this product is designed specifically for use with compatible PVC (polyvinyl chloride) materials. It should not be used on plastics such as polyethylene, polypropylene or ABS, as these require different welding rods.
What profile size should I choose, 3 mm or 4 mm round?
The 3 mm round profile is generally better for finer work, thinner sections and detailed welds, while the 4 mm round profile is more suitable for heavier-duty joints, thicker material and when more filler material is required per pass.
Can I use this rod with any hot air plastic welder?
The rod is compatible with most standard hot air plastic welders and extrusion welders that are suitable for PVC. Ensure your equipment is set to the correct temperature and airflow for PVC, following the welder manufacturer’s instructions.
