Black Tank Repair - GOOD NEWS !!!

I have a small 1 inch crack in the black HDPE holding tank. I might plastic weld it. But I'm considering the use of Tap Poly Weld Adhesive. Click here to view Tap Poly Weld

Has anyone here used this product to repair a HDPE tank and what has your experience been?

Thanks in advance for looking and replying.


Good News!!! Next week we are spending a few days in the Lancaster, PA area. I found a fella that does plastic welding. Called him and he said he can easily handle the job. Told him there is a 1 inch crack. He said the repair would be about $45. The business is Plastic Welding in New Holland, PA 717445-7031.

I'll update this posting once the work is completed.
  • drill a hole at each end of the crack,or it,ll get bigger. watched a plumber do a plastic weld great job .he,says it takes practice to get it flowing like melted butter.
