weldless
Joined without heat
Weldless describes something constructed or joined without welding.
The term appears most often in plumbing and hardware contexts, where weldless fittings and connectors use threading, compression, or other mechanical means to join pipes or components.
The weldless rings are easier to install than traditional welded ones.
This approach allows for easier disassembly and doesn't require specialized welding equipment or skills.
