Two articles (11, 12) are joined together with the aid of a gasket (3) comprising a laminar conductive polymer heating element (31). The gasket is placed between the articles and is heated by passing current through the heating element. Preferably, the articles are composed of a polymeric material and become fused to the heating element, or directly to each other through holes in the gasket. In a preferred embodiment, the gasket (3) has a wedge-shaped cross-section. |
