Kenworth W900 Long Hood Spring Pocket Repair Kit

Polyvance is proud to announce an extension of our very popular Kenworth hood repair kit line with the new Kenworth W900 Long Hood Spring Pocket repair kit.

A dark front bumper cover with two large cracks.

The Kenworth W900 hood is notorious for breaking where the hood support springs mount. The hood is made from an unreinforced thermoset material called Metton which is not weldable. Polyvance's KENW900LSP repair kit is much less expensive than a replacement hood and will also create a repair that is stronger than the original since the spring load is spread out over a much larger area.

The Kenworth W900 spring pocket repair kit includes two custom-cast aluminum caps that fit into the recesses in the hood where the springs mount. The caps are bonded to the hood using Polyvance's 2510 PlastiFix two-component methacrylate adhesive, proven to have a stronger bond to Metton than epoxy or urethane adhesives. The KENW900LSP kit includes two 200ml dual cartridges of the 2510 PlastiFix adhesive, one for each cap.
