Helikon-Tex Forj Thermoplastic Repair Ribbon Tape
A Must-Have for Any Toolbox - Forj is a high strength, lightweight thermoplastic tape-ribbon that molecularly fuses to itself in a matter of seconds. Simply heat it to around 60°C (140°F), press and repeat to repair tools, create custom grips, fix broken sports equipment and more. Once cooled, the self-bonding plastic hardens, creating a bond as strong as steel. If any adjustment is needed - don't worry, Forj can be reheated and reused several times.
1. HEAT: Heat ribbon to 140°F or hotter to bend and mold Forj into desired shape. You can use hot water, a hair dryer, a heat gun, a microwave, open-flame or solar magnification.
2. SHAPE: Once Forj becomes clear, the resin is hot enough to be shaped and adhere to itself to form a bond. As it cools and solidifies, it returns to white.
3. FIX: Let your creation set for a few minutes. Once cooled, the lightweight material molecularly fuses to itself for a bond as strong as steel.
Reheat & Repeat
If adjustments or additions are desired, simply reheat Forj. Forj can be reheated and reformed several times.
