Description

On rare occasion, your polyskid tank might end up with a crack or puncture that will cause your tank to leak. One solution is to replace the entire poly tank, but this can be a costly move especially if the tank has built-in agitation. Instead, for a fraction of the cost, you just might be able to repair the crack or hole using the same material as the tank and be back in business in no time.

Our Poly Welding Gun is made by the same manufacturer of the poly tanks that come on our polyskid systems, and it is specifically designed to repair any line of polyethylene tanks, including farm or water tanks made from polyethylene.

This kit comes with the welding gun, along with 30' of white/natural colored rod.

This product is designed to repair cracks and small holes. Large areas of damage might not be repairable.
