Some 70% of accidents involve damage to bumpers. This can often in turn mean an expensive replacement is required. Repairing plastic bumpers has up to now been a complicated and time-consuming process. However, a new product from Steinel looks set to open up a whole new series of possibilities for bodyshops.

The Steinel Auto Body Plastic Welding Kit, means a bodyshop can professionally repair all types of plastic using one type of Thermoflex universal plastic welding rod. This means easier repairs, with no need for time consuming plastic identification or for different types of plastic welding rod.   

The Steinel kit includes everything you need to professionally repair bumpers and other body parts, including a HG 2310 LCD 630°c Heat Gun, Welding Iron, 9mm Reduction Nozzle, Temperature Guard, Wire Mesh, ThermoFlex Welding Rods and comes complete with a heavy duty case and instructional DVD.

The kit is also useful for a host of other plastics repair applications such as repairing lugs, headlight mounts and other vehicles such as motorcycles and caravans. Welded parts are highly durable and the whole process is quick and easy with repairs generally completed in 30 to 60 minutes.

The Steinel Auto Body Plastic Welding Kit has a huge range of potential uses and offers a very economical alternative in areas such as bumper replacement, with a complete kit having a trade price of just €295 plus vat.
