Re: [DIY] RE: Re: closed water tank repair

 

Probably Not as it will not adhere to the plastic used in the tank.

a few thoughts:
1.  If plastic heavy enough and you can find the right size hole saw, you can drill (a hole/ the hole) and screw a fitting into it (PVC, brass, etc)  I did similar on a portable basketball goal base (heavy black plastic) (Tip, for sizing trial) you can experiment with junk plastic, such as a milk carton) or maybe
2.  (same basketball goal base) developed a water leak hole on one corner by wheel, where dragged over asphalt/ concrete.  I repaired this easily with a hot glue gun and the 12" clear glue sticks;
3.  Harbor freight has "plastic welding" supplies, but I have never used them...

I have a closed portable water tank that i need to
replace the male fitting on. I am having a difficult time
finding a local plastic welder. I have considered taking a
male hose fitting and some how gluing it  in place. The
water stored in the tank is used to water horses.

 

What type of glue is recommended, or is there another way
of repairing this tank?
