5 Tips for Cold Weather Welding on the Roof
When the temperature begins to dip, welding roofing material takes on special challenges. Here are our tips to ensure a watertight weld in cold weather.​

Application Note: Troubleshooting Leister Air Heaters
Leister’s industrial air heaters are very robust but there are times when they show troubling symptoms. This application note outlines some of the most common symptoms that you might see and how to go about solving the underlying problem.​

The Three Essentials for Plastic Welding
​
Plastic welding requires three essential things: temperature, pressure, and time. Without all three plastics may be bonded but will lack the strength of a weld. When done properly, a plastic weld will be as strong as the surrounding material. ​

Wedge versus Hot Air Welding of Thermoplastic Single Plies
The main difference between a wedge and a hot air welder is the way in which heat is transferred to the material. With a wedge welder, a solid piece of metal—the wedge—is heated and inserted between the two pieces of material. With a hot air welder, air is heated and then delivered between the two pieces of material via a hot air nozzle. ​

Plastics Identification Flow Chart
Knowing which type of plastic you're working with is a cornerstone of good plastic welding. By asking you to perform a few simple tests, such as a flame or burn test, the flow chart below will help you determine which type of plastic you have. 

​​Beware Missing Serial Numbers on Leister Equipment
​​Keep an eye out when buying used (and even new!) equipment to make sure the nameplate is intact and hasn’t been altered in any way. We’ve helped a few customers deal with serial numbers cut or scratched out of nameplates.
