These waders are listed as 2 ply Nylon/PVC. Is the outer ply PVC, and the inner ply Nylon? Has anyone had success repairing a leak?

I am not sure yet, but mine also have a leak after using them a few times. I may try the vinyl patch.

Outside nylon inside vinyl I go in sewers and duck hunt with them and I patched a hole a year ago with a simple vinyl patch and it has held through heavy use. They do make you sweat!

I went to a local hardware store and used 7/16OD 3/8ID OD= outside diameter ID= inside diameter. 30 ft cost me under $10.00. Highly recommend hose clamps tho I'm using plumbers tape just fine. Do get a low water pressure regulator or your rabbits will be soaked trying to drink. Also I recommend a pressure release valve and it's nice to have shutoff valves whenever you branch your hoses for easy less mess repairs. Could be used for all small stock except poultry as they would constantly be picking the valve nipples causing water waste and wet birds.

I used Oatey "rain-r-shine' blue PVC cement and purple primer from HD on mine and it has worked out fine. Several months with a new variable speed pump with no leaks or issues.Hope that helps!

I used all plastic PVC fittings to the pump proper. Had no problem getting a good seal using just Teflon tape on the plastic threads

Not for underwater use, but the 2 I have installed seem to be stYing water tight on the outside of the boat

I have four of them and they are pretty darn tight. Don't know if you left them fully submerged for an extended period of time they wouldn't leak but brand new I'm sure it could take a dunk or two with any problem.

Hi Ivan: No the P5 does not have an internal plastic support. Due to the filter design one is not required. Thank You, WaterFiltersOnline

I'm not sure of the sizing of the fittings that you reference, but I use hard pvc couplers, etc. that I purchase at Home Depot with the flexible pipe for my pond. They do need to be glued together. If you're using a fitting that goes into the flexible pipe, it's helpful to put the end of the pipe in hot water 1st and it makes it more flexible.

The outer layer is not stainless braiding but some kind of poly coating. There is braiding under this but don't know the material. This is a very high quality hose I do know that.

The question is, Is this PVC pipe under pressure, i.e. like the normal pressure in your water pipes ? If so, then NO. I have alot of PVC pipes on my lawn sprinkler system, and sometimes a leak occurs, and sometimes, rather than total replace that section, I can take the pressure off, let the area REALLY dry and gluck on lots of PVC cement in the area. Sometimes it works.

You have to take the filter loose from the in & out pipes to change the sand. I used rigid PVC for the in side and a 45 degree fitting with flexible PVC for the out side. It seemed to give a better return flow with a minimum of bends & turns. I only thought of using the flex at the very last because of the angle of the pipe coming out of the ground. I probably would have used All flex and 45's if I'd known how well it increases the flow. The least bends and turn in the pipes=less resistance.

Great idea you have. Yes, that is what you would do. I replaced mine on my Sea Doo. The fiberglass shell basically has a hole in it that this fits in. The seal will prevent it from leaking as long as the surface of the pond is not really curved or flexible. Good luck!

Hi well I found that for vinyl repair I used vinyl waterbed and air mattress repair kit I found it on Amazon it works great! I have a waterbed and it stopped the leak. I hope this helps. Dina

No, I believe they are third party. But they work perfectly. I replaced mine over six months ago and no leaks no problems.

I have a slow leak in chamber #4 on a 280 sevylor. Can't seem to find it. Boat will last for about 4 hrs.. Tried submerging it in the lake but no bubbles. Any suggestions?

The quality is very good, mine does leak when it rains or I wash it. I would look into getting new ones or see if you can get thicker weather stripping.

The inserts look to be.....double thickness of white micro fiber....they are sergered around the fabric.My daughter uses them with her little girl. They are very, very soft. The inserts are usable in other cloth diapering systems. The baby is a heavy wetter and has not had leaks. I hope this helps you!
