Welding Modified Bitumen
​Roofing with Leister 

Leister roofing tools have been the industry standard for roofing specialists since 1949. With over 70 years' experience, Leister builds robust tools that produce high-quality, consistent welds in even the harshest Canadian weather. STANMECH has tools electrically certified for use in Canada before sale – be sure to look for proof of certification when purchasing equipment, the Electrical Safety Authority has the ability to impose fines or seize equipment not certified for use in Canada.

Open flame vs. Hot air

Hot air welding with Leister's BITUMAT B2 gives considerably better welding results than using an open flame. The welding seam is straight and considerably neater, only one operator is needed, and the integrated air dam protects the underlying insulation from damage.
