Product Name
Leister 113.877 - 5.7mm (0.22 in) Triangle Screw-On Speed Welding Nozzle (without tacking tip)
Brief Description
A specialized screw-on nozzle for Leister hot-air welding tools, designed for efficient speed welding of plastic materials using triangular welding rods. It facilitates strong, continuous welds on various thermoplastic surfaces without a tacking tip, optimizing for production speed.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Speed welding of vinyl and linoleum flooring- Plastic fabrication, including tanks, containers, and ductwork- Repair of plastic components, such as car bumpers- Joining plastic sheets and membranes in construction and civil engineering- Boat construction and repair- Welding various thermoplastic materials like PVC, PE, and PP
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Plastic Fabrication- Construction/ Building Services- Flooring Installer or Manufacturer- Automotive Service/Repair- Marine- General Manufacturing- Chemical Industry- Aerospace/Defense
Special and Unique Features
- **Triangle Profile:** Specifically designed for welding with triangular plastic welding rods, often for corners or specific profiles- **Speed Welding Capability:** Enables faster and more efficient welding compared to manual methods- **Screw-On Design:** Ensures a secure attachment to compatible Leister hot-air welding tools- **Without Tacking Tip:** Optimized for continuous welding passes rather than initial spot welding- **Precision Engineered:** Made from durable materials like stainless steel for high temperature and corrosion resistance- **Direct Airflow:** Directs hot air precisely onto the seam, preventing scorching of edges
Key Properties
- **Material:** Precision engineered stainless steel- **Size:** 5.7mm (0.22 in) outlet diameter- **Connection Type:** Screw-on, compatible with Leister Weldpen and Welding Pen product lines, and with Triac/Diode/Hot Jet S/Labor S via adapters- **Function:** Guides welding rod and directs hot air for consistent, strong plastic welds- **Durability:** High temperature and corrosion resistant
Surface Compatibility
- Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)- Polyethylene (PE)- Polypropylene (PP)- Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO)- Polyurethane (for flooring)- Vinyl and Linoleum (for flooring)- Other thermoplastics like ABS, acrylic, fluoropolymers, and some elastomers
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other Leister speed welding nozzles (e.g., round, different sizes like 7mm triangular)- Standard Leister tubular/pencil tip nozzles for manual welding (slower, less guided)- Speed welding nozzles from other hot-air welding equipment manufacturers (may require different tools or adapters)- Extrusion welding for very thick plastic materials- Other plastic welding technologies like ultrasonic, laser, or hot plate welding for different applications or automation levels
Comparison Note
This 5.7mm triangle screw-on speed welding nozzle is specifically designed for efficient, high-quality welding of plastic materials using triangular welding rods, offering a significant speed advantage over manual welding techniques. Its screw-on design provides a secure connection, and the absence of a tacking tip indicates its primary use for continuous, uninterrupted welding passes. It is optimized for specific Leister hot-air tools and applications where a triangular profile weld is required, such as certain flooring installations or plastic fabrications.
