High Temp Velcro
#1
As anyone who has tried to mount something with velcro inside a car knows, regular velcro adhesive (even the heavy duty stuff) doesnt hold up to heat and it falls right off.
I did some investigating and found some Velcro industrial strength polymer based adhesive that holds full strength to 240 degrees (full release is actually much higher).
The problem is that the smallest lengths I can get this in is 25 yards.
So if you are interested in buying a yard or two let me know. Should only be around $4-$5 for a yard (which is a lot of velcro!)

Good for mounting laptimers, gauges, brake controllers, just about anything. This stuff holds 65lbs per square inch so its super strong

cool find! Where are you getting it from? We sell some gauge mounts that sure could benefit from that stuff

velcro is in.
$5 / yard
you can paypal me at <!-- e --><a href="mailto:elgorey@hotmail.com">elgorey@hotmail.com</a><!-- e --> or just give me cash in person.

Preferred delivery is in person, here in No.VA or at a track weekend like shenandoah on april first.
If you want I can ship it to you, but shipping will probably be as much as the velcro itself.

still plenty left for whoever wants any

Man I had my old radar detector mounted with Velcro and the shit always came off in the summer time... it was really annoying. This stuff would have been perfect.

Maybe if I get a new one I'll pick some of this stuff up ^_^
