Weld Smarter, Travel Farther: Leister in RV Builds

Author: Chloe Stambaugh, Marketing Associate, Leister Technologies USA 

Modern RV buyers expect more than mobility – they want comfort, durability, and performance in one sleek package. For manufacturers, this means mastering a variety of thermoplastic welding tasks under tight production schedules. That’s where Leister comes in. 

With a comprehensive portfolio of hot air and extrusion welding tools, Leister helps streamline RV manufacturing – from fabric awnings and waste tanks to floor coverings – ensuring consistent quality and long-term reliability. 

Built to Endure: Welding Awnings with Confidence 

Awnings must withstand extreme sun, wind, and vibration. Leister’s solutions give manufacturers full control over seam strength and design flexibility: 

• SEAMTEK W-900 AT: Fully automated low voltage wedge welder with programmable settings, perfect for large-scale production of PVC-coated awnings. 
• UNIPLAN 510: Semi-automatic, ideal for hems and reinforcements with minimal operator effort. 
• TRIAC ST: Compact and robust for repair work or small-batch production. 

Waste Tanks That Hold Up 

Waste tanks made of HDPE or polypropylene demand strong, leak-free welds. Leister tools meet this challenge: 

• FUSION 2: Lightweight and maneuverable for tight-space welding up to 6 mm. 
• FUSION 3C: High-output for large tanks and consistent weld geometry. 
• TRIAC AT: Precise digital control for prepping and tack welding. 

Flooring That Looks as Good as It Lasts 

RVs need resilient flooring with seamless finishes. Leister provides high-performance tools for clean, durable results: 

• UNIFLOOR 500: Self-propelled and ergonomic, ideal for vinyl seams in tight or curved areas. 
• GROOVER: Creates precise channels for better weld adhesion. 
• TRIAC ST: Adds the perfect finish around fixtures and corners.
