Product Name
Leister 105.503 Wide slot nozzle 20mm, 60° angled, side-inverted (left-handed)
Brief Description
This is a specialized wide slot nozzle accessory designed for use with Leister hot air welding tools. It facilitates precise and efficient welding and heating of various thermoplastic materials. Its unique 20mm slot, 60° angle, and side-inverted (left-handed) configuration are engineered for optimal access and application in specific or challenging welding scenarios.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Welding of flat and pitched roof membranes.- Welding of truck tarpaulins and advertising banners.- Installation and repair of single-ply roofing membranes.- Geomembrane welding in civil engineering projects.- Welding of technical textiles and industrial fabrics.- Welding of various thermoplastic materials in plastic fabrication, including pipes, profiles, and sealing layers.- Heat sealing of single-ply flexible plastics, lining membranes, coated materials, films, foams, and sheets.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Construction/ Building Services- Tarp, Fabric, Awning Manufacturing- Flooring Installer or Manufacturer- Plastic Fabrication- Sign & Display- General Manufacturing
Special and Unique Features
- **20mm Wide Slot:** Provides a specific width for consistent heat distribution over a defined area, ideal for overlap welding.- **60° Angled:** Allows for ergonomic access and precise application in confined spaces or for specific welding geometries.- **Side-inverted (Left-handed):** Specifically designed to optimize maneuverability and precision for left-handed users or for reaching areas that require an inverted angle.- **Clamping Connection:** Ensures a secure and stable fit to compatible Leister hot air tools, preventing slippage during operation.- **Precision Engineered:** Manufactured from durable materials to ensure consistent performance and longevity under demanding conditions.
Key Properties
- **Material:** Precision engineered stainless steel.- **Nozzle Connection Diameter:** 31.5 mm / 1.25 inches.- **Slot Length:** 20 mm / 0.78 inches.- **Slot Width:** 2 mm / 0.07 inches.- **Angle:** 60°.- **Nozzle Connection Type:** Clamping connection.- **Compatibility:** Designed for use with Leister hot air tools such as Triac AT, Triac ST, and Diode PID/S.
Surface Compatibility
- Various thermoplastic materials including HDPE, PP, PVC-U, PVC-C, PA, PVDF, and ECTFE.- Single-ply roofing membranes.- Geomembranes.- Coated fabrics, foils, films, foams, and sheets.- Bitumen plates (when used with compatible Leister tools).
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other Leister wide slot nozzles with different widths (e.g., 40mm, 80mm) or angles (e.g., 15°, 30°, 75°) can serve as substitutes depending on the specific application and accessibility requirements.- Leister wide slot nozzle 107.142 (20 x 2 mm, 30° angled) for applications requiring a different angle.- Leister wide slot nozzle 105.556 (20 x 2 mm, 75° angled) for applications requiring a different angle.- Generic wide slot nozzles from other manufacturers, though Leister is a market leader, and its accessories are often preferred for optimal compatibility and performance with Leister tools.
Comparison Note
This 20mm, 60° angled, side-inverted (left-handed) wide slot nozzle offers specialized access and heat application compared to straight or differently angled nozzles. Its specific design is crucial for intricate or hard-to-reach welding areas where a standard straight nozzle would be impractical. The "side-inverted (left-handed)" aspect indicates a design optimized for specific ergonomic or directional welding needs, distinguishing it from a "film on right" (right-handed) version of a similar nozzle.
