Re: polyurethane tubing

We use an industrial heat gun to weld the tubing together and put it in water to get it to set a little bit faster. You have to let it sit at room temp for 5-10 minutes and then the weld should be as strong as the tubing itself. It's incredible stuff, but I would reccomend experimenting with welding it together.
