Seam gluing of Wetsuit

Another alternative to sewing was to attach the edges of the fit collectively. This created a clean, flat surface that did now not always want taping, but lamentably, raw foam glued to foam isn't a strong bond and still vulnerable to tearing.

Most early wetsuits were fabricated completely by way of hand, that can result in sizing mistakes in the cutting of the froth sheeting. If the cut edges did now not align successfully or the gluing become now not performed well, there may still be water leakage alongside the seam.

Initially, suits can be discovered as being sewn best, glued only, taped most effective, then also sewn and taped, or glued and taped, or possibly all three.
