On the Roof, Speed and Accuracy Matter 

A well-equipped service department is essential to every successful roofing company. From leak detection and small repairs to curb flashings and larger patchwork, service crews face a wide range of tasks — often under time pressure and changing site conditions. 

Leister’s compact and high-performance tools are built specifically for these challenges. They help service technicians complete jobs faster, more precisely, and with full confidence in the quality of their work. 

 

Compact Power for Every Task 

The TRIAC ST/AT hand tools are trusted essentials for patching, detailing, and welding around corners, pipes, or penetrations where larger welders can’t reach. Their ergonomic design, precise temperature control, and lightweight build make them the go-to tools for service teams working in tight spaces. 

For complete independence, the NEXHEAT 300 A-LP takes mobility to the next level. This cordless, battery-powered hot-air tool eliminates the need for external power on the roof while delivering the same performance as the TRIAC series. Designed with digital temperature regulation, the NexHeat 300 A-LP offers precision and freedom — ideal for quick repairs, small patchwork, or touch-ups. 

When the job requires more power and consistency, the UNIDRIVE 500 bridges the gap between hand tools and automatic welders. It combines digital speed control with manual pressure adjustment for consistent, high-quality seams — perfect for curb flashing, edge metal, or vertical wall seams. 

And for accurate leak detection, the Vacuum Plate 100 LP makes finding leaks fast and simple. Battery-powered and easy to carry, it locates even the smallest membrane breaches quickly, saving time and preventing larger repair costs. 

Tools That Keep Service Teams Ahead 

Together, these tools form a complete Leister portfolio tailored for service technicians. Every product is engineered for durability, efficiency, and ease of transport — because time spent setting up or troubleshooting equipment is time lost on the roof. Leister tools empower technicians to work smarter, faster, and with greater precision — ensuring reliable, long-lasting repairs that keep roofing systems performing.
