June 4, 2020
The system uses hot nitrogen gas to restructure common plastic components.

The H&S Autoshot Nitro-Weld Plastic Welder, No. UNI-8100, is designed to be an all-in one solution for plastic repair needs in the shop with hot staple, hot iron, and plastic welding capabilities equipped. The system features a built-in air compressor and contaminate-free nitrogen hot iron/staple capabilities when reflowing or stapling, making it ideal for professionals. The built-in compressor eliminates hoses and noisy shop bleed air while allowing the system to be completely portable. The system also offers digital control with two torches for both air welding and hot staple/reflow functions. It runs on 115V and features an easy-to-use interface panel, alarm indicator for low/no gas pressure, adjustable settings, power settings for both hot staple and hot melt/reflow, visual indicator nitrogen alert, and hot air mode for gas conservation.
