Mountain ski equipment reparing.
If a person takes up mountain skiing or snowboarding then it’s not only sports. This is lifestyle.
These kinds of sport are for strong, free-spirited and passionate people.
But along with great amount of adrenaline, received on hills, it’s important to remember that mountain skiing and snowboarding are not only the source of great pleasure but also means of transport with high risk. That’s why a well-constructed, well-attended ski and snowboard equipment takes on special significance.
If uneven surface, stones and your excitement were cruel to your skis then repairing should be taken into consideration. Mainly dwell on a question of qualified reconstruction of sliding surface equipment.
It’s not necessary to buy new equipment right after cracks, scratches and burrages appeared. It’s enough to think seriously and plan thoroughly your equipment mending, and then in most cases your skis and snowboards will not only “feel” renewed, they will act as new ones do.
For reconstruction gliding surface and skis itself, here are several tips:
1. You may send it to repairing shop. But it’s not a fact that they will do it well. It’s not rare a fact that after repairing equipment looks good but plastic comes off, the board and skis return to their pre-repairing condition right after the first move. Thus in many towns there are neither specialists, nor high-quality repairing equipment.
2. You may use as they used to do in old times: cut the detached (spalled) slab from a scratch, clean the surface and fill the hole with molten slab. This is hard labour. Though again there’s no a 100% high quality and skills guarantee that allow to go through all the repairing stages and polish the gliding surface and skis itself professionally enough.
The specialists from “MELTPAK” company suggest a simple and high-quality glueing technology for skis and snowboards gliding surface reconstruction.
When you want to repair fast and with high quality the best way to do it is to use an electronic pistol ÐÌ – 473SKI, specially designed for skis and snowboard repairing. There’s a special repairing material used with the help of which one can easily repair any board and ski damage. It’s absolutely essential to clean and degrease a disclosed place beforehand and thoroughly.
There’s a hole in the pistol for supplying of repairing matering and a small iron, the heating surface of which goes up to 280 degrees. The temperature of work is proved experimentally and is quite appropriate. The process of mending using this method absolutely doesn’t influence the quality of gliding equipment for mountain sport and snowboarding.
This method will allow you to “strengthen” your skis or board thoroughly and their high-quality repairing will give lots of unforgettable impressions and fill your life with bright colours.

Prior to the 1970’s most manufacturer’s joints in corrugated box were either stapled or glued with a “pot and wheel” system. Since the advent of resin-based adhesives and closed, extrusion application systems, the possibility of running higher speeds with more accurate glue pattern placement became a reality. During the last 30 years, most of the systems installed were based on low-pressure adhesive system and a simple head that contacted that board, usually at an angle. The advent of faster direct-electric valves and further advances in adhesive technology have made jetting the glue from a distance away from the board a valid method for applying adhesives. Non-contact manufacturer’s joint glue application can offer advantages for corrugated converters, but also come with some downsides.
