base weld is still a p-tex material, just a slightly different density of it. Its a little bit harder than, say, candle p-tex or other p-tex wire. These are not the same as HDPE though.

I would say the best bet is to talk to the manufacturer and either have them send a small sample of plastic, or find out exactly what type of plastic they use, and go through a plastics supplier
