Known backups / known substitutes
- Leister 114.734 Ironing nozzle (ø 21.3) 40 x 20 mm, which offers a similar ironing function with different dimensions.- Other Leister nozzles with different profiles, such as speed welding nozzles (e.g., 4mm or 5mm round, triangular) or wide slot nozzles, depending on the specific welding or smoothing task.- Alternative hot air welding tools or methods, though Leister is a leading brand in this field.
Comparison Note
This Leister 107.305 Ironing nozzle is specifically engineered for precise smoothing and welding in applications requiring a narrow and defined contact area. Its dimensions make it ideal for intricate detail work, reaching into tight corners, or finishing seams where a broader nozzle might be less effective. It offers a distinct advantage for specific seam widths and detailed finishing requirements compared to general-purpose wide slot or speed welding nozzles.
