welded
An object or part that's welded together can't be taken apart easily. Think of two metal pieces attached with welding.
A weld is usually strong and permanent, so it's often used to describe something fixed in place – a bridge might have a steel beam welded underneath. When you see someone repairing a bike, they might use a welder to join the broken parts back together. It can also mean that people or things are connected closely, like two friends who are welded together through thick and thin.
