What is it? What does it do? Why does FLSI utilize this technology?

Extrusion Welding is taking a plastic welding rod spooled from the manufacturer of the liner and feeding it into a handheld extrusion gun. It heats up the welding rod to melting point, then forces it through a screw driven barrel and comes out of the Teflon tip. Extruders also have an additional wide nozzle next to the tip for hot air to prep the weld area to soften the base sheets of material to allow for excellent adhesion of both the molten welding rod and base material sheets. Extruders aren’t just meant for flexible sheet welding, they are also used in rigid plastic fabrication, plastic pipe welding, and many other applications. FLSI has many different types, sizes and models of Extruders as we are such a diverse fabricator and installer, this allows us to tackle any project challenges.
