Plastic Welding
The Process
Hot gas welding of thermoplastics is a manual welding process. A stream of hot air is
directed towards the joint between the two thermoplastic parts to be joined, where it
softens or melts the polymer. A filler rod is also heated in the stream of hot gas and
this is fed between the two parts. A weld is formed by the fusing together of the
thermoplastic parts and the filler rod.
When carried out carefully the plastic part will be as good as new.
