Abstract
A non-penetrating fastener for mounting elastomeric sheeting to a roof includes a base plate adapted to be fixedly mounted to the roof and having a surface which mounts an induction heating element coated with hot melt adhesive, and a rigid top plate having a surface which mounts a second induction heating element coated with hot melt adhesive. The rigid top plate and base plate are positioned on opposite sides of an elastomeric sheet so that their adhesive coated surfaces of their induction heating elements contact the sheet and the rigid top plate overlies the base plate. In response to bombardment with a magnetic flux from an induction welding device, the induction heating elements of both the base plate and rigid top plate heat the adhesive thereon to the molten state for adhesion to the elastomeric sheet.
