Product Name
Leister 145.905 Welding shoe complete (FWP-Int. Air) V-seam 30mm
Brief Description
The Leister 145.905 Welding shoe is a specialized accessory designed for Leister hot-air plastic extrusion welders. It is engineered to create a precise 30mm V-seam in various thermoplastic materials, utilizing an internal air guidance system for efficient and high-quality welds.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Plastic tank and container fabrication.- Welding of geomembranes in applications such as landfills, tunnels, and reservoirs.- Construction and repair in the marine industry, including boat construction.- Welding of roofing membranes (TPO, PVC, EPDM, Bitumen).- Installation and welding of flooring materials.- Manufacturing and repair of truck tarpaulins and shading systems.- General manufacturing of plastic components for industrial systems.- Welding PVC trimboard and synthetic turf.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Plastic Fabrication- Construction/ Building Services- Marine- Tarp, Fabric, Awning Manufacturing- Synthetic Turf- Energy (for geomembranes in infrastructure projects)- General Manufacturing- Distributers & Resellers
Special and Unique Features
- Specifically designed for V-seam welding geometry.- Produces a consistent 30mm weld width.- Features internal air guidance (FWP-Int. Air) for optimal heat distribution during the welding process.- Compatible with a range of Leister extrusion welders, including the Fusion 1, Fusion 2, Fusion 3, Fusion 3C, and Weldplast S2.- Known for its industry-leading quality, durability, and ease of installation.
Key Properties
- Welding Seam Geometry: V-seam / X-seam.- Weld Width: 30mm.- Air Guide: Internal.- Material: High-quality, durable material suitable for hot-air plastic welding applications.- Compatibility: Designed as an accessory for Leister extrusion welders.
Surface Compatibility
This welding shoe is compatible with a wide range of thermoplastic materials commonly welded with Leister extrusion welders, including:- High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE)- Polypropylene (PP)- Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC-U, PVC-C)- Polyamide (PA)- Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF)- Ethylene Chlorotrifluoroethylene (ECTFE)- Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO)- Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM)- Bitumen
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other Leister welding shoes with different seam geometries (e.g., fillet weld, overlap seam, corner outside seam) or varying widths (e.g., Leister 145.940 fillet weld 20mm, Leister 145.897 overlap 1.4" welding shoe, Leister 146.643 corner outside seam).- Alternative welding shoes from Leister designed for X-seams or other specific weld profiles.
Comparison Note
The Leister 145.905 welding shoe is specifically engineered for creating a 30mm V-seam, making it ideal for applications requiring this particular weld profile and width. While other Leister welding shoes exist for different seam geometries (e.g., overlap, fillet, X-seam) and sizes, this product offers optimized performance for its intended V-seam application, ensuring precision and efficiency where a 30mm V-groove weld is required. Its internal air guidance system is a key feature distinguishing it from external air guide models.
