Flex Seal

[Rum_Pirate]

Anyone have any experience using Flex Seal to repair RIB Hypalon® material tubes?

Can anyone recommend it?

Flex Seal does not spring to mind as a product designed for the highly mobile world and temperatures of a WI RIB. Their technical pages cover all kinds of applications but no reference to the marine environment.


A quick email to their tech department might provide deeper information, though.

What I can say is that


http://www.polymarine.com/advice/pvc-or-hypalon/



sell very effective repair materials and adhesives for hypalon. I've done a couple of patches on my rubber dubber with their 2 part stuff.

I want to re-glue the tube to the transom plus fix a leak.

One of these patches leaks.
