can this be used to patch hairline crack in pool skimmer under water line

I used the tape to repair a water leak in the kitchen sink just below the drain. The tape stretches a bit and adheres to itself during wrapping. I don't believe it would work for your particular need but would be nice to have in your Do it yourself tool kit.

Dear Jim W., This 3M wrap works by applying super tight pressure as you pull it tight around a pipe. Since it has no adhesive, it is a very temporary fix and it works best for a pin size leak in a pipe, only until you can repair the pipe as soon as possible. It would not repair any type of cracks. I hope this helps answer your question. Maren

Sure. If you have the room to wrap it around the leak. The tape stretches and hardens to itself as you wrap. This stuff kicks ass. Try it.

they sell an underwater epoxy that might work well for that. i haven't tried it however, but i would..

Maybe for hairline cracks. I still think it would crack, personally. More so if you have a lot of climate change where you are at.

I would think so...I repaired a leak in my Jacuzzi with it, and used masking tape as a form. When poured into the form, came out rock hard. Just make sure what u are adhering to is very clean. Good luck

If you read my review, I covered the procedure I used for the skimmer in detail. If the leak is in the floor drain Fix A Leak will probably not work.

Answer here...the pool skim has to be connected to a return line not a suction line.

I would not put it in the machine. You might be able to do it once but it would stress the joins to the plastic parts and lead to rips and tears down the line. Also it would speed up fading of the face.

Of course. I used it to fill in the gaps to prevent water leakage as well as using the foam to build a little stone wall up on the liner for cosmetics. I do not what you could not do with this 'stuff'. It will fix you right up.

I would not expect the repair to last. Your boat probably flexes at the point of the crack and this otherwise excellent epoxy probably would not hold as it would flex at a different rate. You really need something like Bondo fiberglass repair with a fiberglass cloth patch, in my opinion.

This worked good underwater. For small holes in the bottom of our 4 FT deep above ground pool, its not easy because you need goggles and have to exhale to stay down for that few seconds to apply the patch. Just smudge some on your patch before going under (whole patch) then take it down quick, apply over the hole and then press down with your foot for a couple minutes.

I think it would work. Filling the crack is essential. You can apply more to make sure the crack is filled since irt binds well to that already there.

I don't think so, there has to be coolant circulation there to carry the sealer. it will probably need welding. I've heard of epoxy brands than can patch external cracks with a piece of tin. it probably depends on the severity & location.

No it is one a piece butterfly type but it can be used. If you use it as is you have to either have a precut hole in the pool wall or you have or cut the hole in the wall first. I cut my gasket into two parts and clamped the skimmer to the wall with the two gasket pieces in place. I then cut the pool wall in the center of the skimmer to make the needed hole. Worked very well and has been working since early summer.

I do not think so. With this part u have to have access to the threaded stud, to splice onto ur bonding cable, on the outside of the skimmer. So if ur skimmer is in concrete floor it won't work. If ur building a pool it may before the pour if the inspector is ok with it.

This is probably the only mini skimmer with some type of effectiveness. You might wanna consider using lime stones in a diy project. You would be surprised, they do work pretty well when adjusted properly

Yes it should. Used to build boats. And I've also used it to make some plastic repairs inside a swimming pool filter dystem

This is the above ground version and is a suction side device. Im not sure but I would guess that this could be if connected through your skimmer as it is made to do for the above ground pools.

Yes, I used it on a pinhole and crack I had in my hot water supply line. The instructions on the boxes only mention water supply on the 4 inch wrap so it would be best to use that. I used the 2 inch because the area in which I was doing the repair was very tight and ultimately I intend it be temporary since I have no idea how long it will last.
