Polyvance Releases Compression Roller to Smooth and Compress Welds
Polyvance’s new 6144 Compression Roller reduces the finishing time and improves the strength of plastic welds by smoothing and compressing the joint between the plastic filler rod and the base material. The Compression Roller can also be used to improve the appearance of back-side welds and increase the speed with which reinforcing mesh can be embedded into a repair.
The Compression Roller features a polished stainless-steel roller and smooth sealed cartridge bearings. It has an ergonomic handle and high-strength plated steel frame. The 6144 is designed in the USA and made exclusively for Polyvance.
The Compression Roller makes the strength of welds more consistent and improves the flexibility of some fiber reinforced plastics after welding. The roller acts like a heat sink to cool plastic welds more quickly. The 6144 is available from Polyvance directly or through automotive paint & body distributors. Visit the 6144 product page or call 800-633-3047 for more information.
