Compared to conventional hand gluing, the advantages of Thermowelding are:

  • Stronger adhesion of fabric
  • Clear appearance of boat
  • Minimized wicking through the fabric yarn
PVC layers

Multiple layers of PVC fabric are bonded by hot air at a specific melting point.

Both edges of tube fabric are fed into the roller. Finishing tape is introduced over the seam in preparation for welding.

Rolling the fabric
Welding the seam

Closing the tube seam is done by welding the seam tape over the center of both sides of the fabric.

The seam is stronger than the fabric itself.
