Common Hamilton applications
Plastic welding work in Hamilton breaks down into a few dominant categories. The right tool depends on the job, but we see the same patterns across the region:
Dairy & agriculture
The Waikato’s dairy and agricultural base drives steady demand — HDPE pipe and tank repair, effluent and feed-system fabrication, troughs and calf-rearing equipment. PE-HD and PE-MD rod cover most farm PE work.
Auto body & smash repair
Bumper and trim repair is the highest-frequency job. PEMD welding rod with an automotive kit turns a $300–$800 bumper replacement into a 1–3 hour repair.
Engineering & contracting
Chemical tank fabrication, PP ducting and bund construction across Hamilton’s engineering workshops and contractors.
Tanks & containment
Water and effluent tank fabrication and repair — PP and HDPE structural welding with extruder welders for thick sections.

Need help choosing the right tool?
Plastic welding is unforgiving of mismatched rod and substrate, wrong-temperature setups and undersized welders. Before you order:
- Identify the plastic you’re welding — check the recycling code stamped in the part.
- Decide how often you’ll use the welder — occasional repair work suits a Rion; daily commercial use needs a Triac.
- Pick the right rod profile and size — round (3/4/5mm) for most welding, triangular for fillets, flat for butt welds.
- Check accessory needs — pressure roller, brush, replacement element. Bundled kits include all of this.

I’m a body shop in Hamilton looking at plastic bumper repair — where do I start?
The automotive kit is the right starting point — built around the Techspan Rion welder with PEMD rod (the polymer in almost every modern bumper), the right speed nozzle and a pressure roller. Call us to talk through your use case before ordering.
Do you supply trade and educational accounts?
Yes — trade pricing is available for ongoing commercial accounts, and we supply training institutes. Contact us with your account details to get set up.
What if I order the wrong rod or welder?
Phone or email first and we’ll talk through what you need before you order. Wrong rod for the plastic is the most common cause of failed welds — we’d rather you call than guess.
