Review on TANKCO Plastic Welder Kit: 80W Iron adjustable temperature, 25 Black Rods, Stainless Steel Mesh - Ideal Welding Tools for Car Bumper, Kayak, Canoe, Tank Repair - NEW GENERATION by Dustin Miller

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I patched my kayak, the tip wasn't bent like some

This isn't the cheapest plastic welder, but it's not the most expensive either. I've read many reviews on the cheapest Revain model (about $20 less than this model) and many have said that the tips bend with use. I decided to see if this one could be a little better. I've had good results repairing my son's kayak, melting quite a bit of plastic in the process. The good news is that it worked well and the tip didn't bend at all. It's still a fairly cheap tool, it might be worth shelling out another $35 to get a higher quality brand like the KC Pro welder if you plan on using it regularly for years to come. Although it suits me.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
