The welding means includes a nozzle having two outlets, with each outlet applying a heat sealing weld on one side of the fastening means. The device also includes a pair of weighted stitcher wheel assemblies which help to eliminate air pockets for underneath the roof membranes and to maintain the proper alignment of the overlapping membranes. The invention also includes a welding process using the above-mentioned device.
