Specifications

The Urethane Supply Company Nitro Fuzer Nitrogen Plastic Welding system, model {manufacturers_part_number}, is engineered for robust plastic repair. This system measures 34.00 inches in length, 37.00 inches in width, and 19.00 inches in height. It weighs 75.00 lbs. The unit provides adjustable temperature and airflow controls, offering a temperature range from 500°F to 1,100°F, crucial for various plastic types. It features a 550 Watt output for hot air welding and a 200 Watt output for airless welding.

Key Features

• Nitrogen Gas Welding: Utilizes nitrogen gas to create fusion welds, preventing oxidation and ensuring the strongest possible plastic repairs.
• Automatic Gas Switching: A holster switch provides seamless transitions between air and nitrogen, optimizing gas conservation and operational efficiency.
• Precision Control: Equipped with an analog flow gauge for consistent performance and precision flow regulators for both air and nitrogen. Outlet pressure gauges monitor both air and nitrogen levels.
• Element Protection: Integrated circuitry protects the heating element, preventing burnout due to insufficient airflow.
• Ergonomic Design: Features a compact, easy-to-handle welding torch that reduces user fatigue and accesses tight repair areas. The hot air welder hose is crafted from melt-proof silicone and fiberglass braiding for durability.
• Integrated Airless Welder: Includes control for airless welding, suitable for repairing thermoset PUR plastics.
• User-Friendly Interface: Intuitive controls simplify operation, making the system accessible for technicians.
• Comprehensive Setup: Often includes a heavy-duty welding cart with a bottle cradle, toolbox, and heating element holster for mobility and organization. An integral power strip and an air manifold with an auxiliary outlet for air tools are also included.

Applications

The Nitro Fuzer Nitrogen Plastic Welding system is designed for a broad range of professional plastic repair tasks. It is widely used in:

• Automotive Collision Repair: Ideal for repairing bumpers, headlight tabs, interior panels, grille bars, and fender liners. It effectively addresses high-stress areas, flexible tabs, and mounting holes that are difficult or impossible to fix with adhesives.
• Industrial and Commercial Settings: Suitable for industrial manufacturers, contractors, and maintenance technicians repairing various plastic components and equipment housings.
• Specialized Plastic Repair: Capable of repairing polyethylene plastics, such as washer bottles and fender liners, where two-part adhesives often fail.
• Versatile Plastic Types: Beyond automotive, this system can be applied to repair plastics on ATVs, boats, motorcycles, appliances, and toys.

Benefits

• Superior Weld Strength: Creates the strongest possible plastic repairs by melting plastics together with nitrogen gas, eliminating oxidation and contamination during the welding process. This results in repairs stronger than those achieved with two-part epoxies or hot air welding alone.
• Increased Repair Speed: Expedites repair times significantly compared to two-part epoxies, with typical welding speeds of 4 to 6 inches per minute and no cure time required. Repaired parts can be cooled, sanded, primed, and painted immediately.
• Expanded Repair Capabilities: Enables repairs on plastic components and detailed areas that are not feasible with traditional two-part adhesives, such as thin mounting tabs, complex grille bars, and flexible plastic parts.
• Cost-Effective Operations: By facilitating reliable plastic repair rather than replacement, the system helps shops increase profitability and reduce overall repair costs for customers.
• High-Quality Finish: Preserves original equipment (OE) parts, preventing fit and blend issues often associated with aftermarket replacements.
