Product Name
Leister 105.531 Wide Slot Nozzle 40mm with 90-degree angle bend
Brief Description
This is a specialized accessory for Leister hot air welding tools, featuring a 40mm wide slot and a 90-degree angle bend. It is designed to direct hot air precisely for various plastic welding, heating, and forming applications, particularly in areas requiring angled access.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Plastic welding, including overlap welding of thermoplastic materials- Welding of single-ply roofing membranes and other waterproofing materials- Sealing geomembranes in civil engineering projects like landfills, tunnels, and hydraulic engineering- Fabrication of plastic components and containers- Repair of vehicle plastic parts, such as automotive bumpers- Installation and repair of floor coverings, including vinyl flooring- Processing of technical textiles, industrial fabrics, tarpaulins, and billboards- General industrial process heat applications like activating, heating, curing, melting, shrinking, drying, and warming
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Plastic Fabrication- Construction/ Building Services- Flooring Installer or Manufacturer- Tarp, Fabric, Awning Manufacturing- Automotive Service/Repair- Sign & Display- General Manufacturing
Special and Unique Features
- 90-degree angle bend: Allows for access to difficult-to-reach areas and precise direction of hot air for specialized welding or heating tasks.- 40mm wide slot: Provides a broad and even distribution of hot air, ideal for larger seams and faster work on flat surfaces.- Durable construction: Made from 304 stainless steel for longevity and resistance to high temperatures and corrosion.- Clamping connection: Ensures a secure fit to compatible Leister hot air tools.- Genuine Leister accessory: Guarantees compatibility and performance with Leister Triac ST, Triac AT, and Diode hot air guns.
Key Properties
- Material: 304 Stainless Steel- Nozzle Connection Diameter: 31.5 mm / 1.25 inches- Slot Length: 40 mm / 1.57 inches- Slot Width: 2 mm / 0.07 inches- Bend Angle: 90 degrees- Connection Type: Clamping connection- Compatibility: Designed for use with Leister Triac ST, Triac AT, and Diode hot air tools.
Surface Compatibility
- Various thermoplastics (e.g., PE, PP, PVC)- Single-ply roofing membranes- Geomembranes- Technical textiles and industrial fabrics- Vinyl flooring materials
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other Leister wide slot nozzles: Available in different widths (e.g., 20mm, 80mm) or bend angles (e.g., 15°, 30°, straight) depending on the specific application.- Leister tubular or speed welding nozzles: For more precise or specialized welding tasks.- Nozzles from other hot air tool manufacturers: Such as BAK, though compatibility with Leister tools may vary.- Alternative welding methods: Depending on the material and application, other methods like extrusion welding (using Leister extruders) or solvent welding might be used, but these are typically for different scales or material types.
Comparison Note
The Leister 105.531 Wide Slot Nozzle with a 90-degree angle bend stands out from standard straight wide slot nozzles due to its unique bend, which is crucial for accessing confined spaces or directing hot air around corners and obstacles. While straight wide slot nozzles (e.g., Leister 107.132 40mm straight nozzle) are excellent for flat, open surfaces, the 90-degree bend of the 105.531 offers enhanced maneuverability and precision for intricate or hard-to-reach welding and heating applications. Its 40mm width provides a good balance between coverage and control, making it versatile for many tasks where both broad heat application and angled access are required.
