Subject field(s)
  • Engineering Tests and Reliability
  • Joints and Connections (Construction)
  • Waterproofing (Construction)
OBS

The pressurized dual seam [testing] method was mentioned earlier in connection with the double-wedge thermal seam method. The air channel that results between the double seam is inflated to approximately 30 lb/in[upperscript 2] for 100 to 200 ft. If no drop in pressure occurs, the seam is acceptable; ...

OBS

The hot wedge or hot knife method consists of an electronically heated resistance element in the shape of a blade that is passed between the two sheets to be sealed. As it melts the surfaces, roller pressure is applied. An interesting variation is the dual-hot-wedge method, which forms two parallel seams with an unbonded space between them. This space is subsequently pressurized with air and any lowering of pressure signifies a leak in the seam.

Record 5 2003-09-17

English

Subject field(s)
  • Sewing Notions
CONT

Seams are the weak point in waterproof clothing, so it is essential for sealing tape to be chosen that works with the garment fabric, so it does not peel off after washing and use. The key points for application are that the tape properly overlaps the seam on both sides, and that exactly the right temperature, pressure and timing is used when the seam is sealed.

CONT

To ensure maximum waterproofness [of the parka] the seams of the interlining are treated with a sealing tape.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Articles et accessoires de couture
CONT

Afin de maximiser l'imperméabilité du produit, les coutures de l'entredoublure sont traitées au moyen d'un ruban d'étanchéité.
