Hi all a question regarding air beam bladders.
If you look at the end of an air beam bladder you will see that it is sealed by some sort ( I guess) heat crimp process. It seems to me that this crimp/ weld is the weak spot and often fails. Has anyone here ever managed to find an effective repair process? Adhesive or tape ?
Now I love my air awning and I much prefer it over conventional pole awnings so don’t go there.
I have tried gaffer tape ( can nearly work) I have tried super glue but that’s just the wrong glue and will not adhere. So if anyone can enlighten me I would be grateful. I have ordered a new air beam but it seems a shame to scrap a good one just because the end opens up.
