Today, the global pandemic environment has made the medical protective clothing such as surgical mask a part of our lives. Thus, these products must be used not only by the healthcare personnel but also by everyone. However, among all of these protective products, those produced with the correct methods must be preferred. The aim of this study is to analyse the changes in the weight in grams and production methods of the selected textile surfaces and the changes in the bursting strength of the seam area, water resistance and air permeability after ultrasonic welding process these surfaces with the ultrasonic joining method. As the results of this study, the air permeability of 50 gr/m2 SMS fabric, the water resistance property of the joining of 45 gr/m2 SMMS and 50 gr/m2 SMS fabric types with the flat roller and the bursting strength of the joining of the fabric type produced with the 45 gr/m2 SMS technic with the flat roller showed a better performance than any other alternatives.
