Can two tubes be welded together using induction?
Yes, two tubes of the same or compatible polymers can be successfully joined using induction heating. In specialized catheters, single and multiple lumen tubes are often joined to short sections of tubes made from a softer durometer plastic. These “soft tips” are permanently attached to the multi-lumen tubes and usually feature an open tip with a smooth transition from the soft tip OD to the catheter tube OD.
