UltraGard PVC roofing systems may be welded in two ways, either by solvent welding or by hot air welding, but only hot air welding is acceptable for installing field seams. JM recommends the use of hot-air welding when temperatures are below 40°F(4°C) or when significant moisture is present in amounts that would prevent positive seaming. All surfaces to be welded shall be clean and dry. No adhesive shall be present within the lap areas. 3, record 2, English, - hot%20air%20welding

Welded cans are manufactured by one of two methods, wheel or wire welding. Both are variations of a forge-welding process.... Wire welding can accommodate the use of tin plate while wheel welding is best suited for tin-free steel, TFS. When using TFS, both methods require grinders to clean the edges to be welded so that they are free of oxides and chrome surface materials. Prior to side seam welding, the body blanks are formed into cylinders and tack-welded to maintain shape and proper relationship of the edges to each other.... Welded seams are used extensively for three-piece beverage, aerosol and food cans. 1, record 6, English, - wire%20welding
