Plastic Welding

Plastic welding is a process that connects plastic materials by softening them with heat and pressure, resulting in a strong, durable bond. Welding plastic creates lightweight and corrosion-resistant assemblies that enhance product longevity. It plays a crucial role in various industries, where cohesive and reliable joints are essential.

At SeaGate Plastics, we specialize in advanced plastic welding technologies, ensuring smooth connections for various applications. Our expertise guarantees strong and resilient assemblies that enhance product performance and longevity. With our cutting-edge techniques, we deliver high-quality solutions tailored to meet the specific needs of various sectors.

Common Types of Plastics Used in Welding

Each of these plastics offers unique properties that make them suitable for specific welding applications:

Polyethylene (PE)

This type of plastic offers exceptional impact resistance, flexibility, and chemical resistance, making it a versatile choice for welding. It can be easily fused using hot gas or extrusion, which results in strong and durable connections. PE’s ability to withstand harsh environments and chemicals ensures reliability in various industrial applications.

Polypropylene (PP)

PP is known for its high chemical and fatigue resistance, which improves its suitability for welding. This plastic can be effectively joined using methods such as extrusion. Its endurance under repeated stress and chemical exposure renders it ideal for demanding industrial environments.

Plastic Welding Technique Utilized by SeaGate Plastics

We employ this method to ensure optimal product manufacturing and repair results. Here is our technique:

Extrusion Welding

Our team uses thermoplastic extrusion welding, a process in which a specialized welding gun melts and fuses plastic material rod. The thermoplastic material fed into the extrusion welder is heated to an appropriate welding temperature ahead of exiting the nozzle. This method is known for its precision, strength, and durability; formulating this technique to be ideal for multiple industrial applications such as packaging, automotive, and construction.
