Product Name
Leister 105.494 Wide Slot Nozzle 30mm x 2 mm with 15-degree angle bend
Brief Description
The Leister 105.494 Wide Slot Nozzle is a specialized accessory crafted from 304 stainless steel, designed for use with Leister hot air welding tools. It features a 30mm x 2mm slot and a 15-degree angle bend, enabling precise and broad heat distribution for various plastic welding, forming, and industrial process heat applications, particularly in hard-to-reach areas.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Overlap welding of plastic sheets and membranes, especially in areas difficult for welding machines to access.- Welding of single-ply roofing membranes.- Fabrication and repair of technical textiles such as truck tarpaulins, advertising banners, awnings, and inflatable plastic fabrics.- Plastic fabrication, including the construction of tanks and containers.- General industrial process heat applications like activating, curing, drying, and shrinking.- Installation of floor coverings, particularly for PVC and vinyl materials.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Plastic Fabrication- Construction/ Building Services- Tarp, Fabric, Awning Manufacturing- Flooring Installer or Manufacturer- Automotive Service/Repair- General Manufacturing- Chemical Industry (for galvanic tank construction)- Sign & Display (for advertising banners)
Special and Unique Features
- Features a 15-degree angle bend, which significantly improves access to confined or challenging welding areas.- Provides a wide slot (30mm x 2mm) for broad and even heat distribution, ideal for overlap welding applications.- Constructed from durable 304 stainless steel, ensuring high heat resistance and a long operational lifespan.- Designed with a clamping connection for secure and stable attachment to compatible Leister hot air tools.- Compatible with popular Leister hot air guns including TRIAC ST, TRIAC AT, DIODE PID, and DIODE S.
Key Properties
- Material: 304 Stainless Steel- Slot Dimensions: 30mm (length) x 2mm (width)- Angle: 15-degree bend- Nozzle Connection Diameter: 31.5 mm / 1.25 inches- Connection Type: Clamping connection (often push-fit with screw adjustment)- Function: Directs hot air for plastic welding, forming, and heating applications.
Surface Compatibility
- Thermoplastic materials- PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)- PE (Polyethylene)- PP (Polypropylene)- Single-ply roofing membranes- Geomembranes- Technical textiles (e.g., tarpaulins, banners, awnings)
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other Leister wide slot nozzles with varying dimensions (e.g., 20mm x 2mm, 40mm wide slot nozzles).- Standard elongated nozzles for general-purpose hot air applications.
Comparison Note
This 15-degree angled wide slot nozzle is specifically engineered for applications demanding a broad, directed heat flow in areas that may be challenging to reach with straight nozzles. It provides an optimal balance between extensive heat distribution and enhanced maneuverability, distinguishing it from narrower speed welding nozzles used for applying welding rod or tubular nozzles designed for more concentrated spot heating.
