Any suggestions please.

You can try these guys, normally very accommodating, not sure on their min order though as anything i buy is always over.


Talk to them nicely

PTFE any use?

Try a model engineering supply place such as Chronos.............they tend to do all sorts of different materials, but prices are high if you want any amount.

Thanks all for the info, must be ABS or compatable for welding to ABS.

This site has some technical specs of plastic rods which might help you find an alternative material that will join to ABS

If it's ABS welding, I am guessing Fairing? Thought about Acetone and scrap ABS making your own liquid plastic and having an all in one piece instead of a welded one.
