This morning, we received an urgent call from a customer out on site who wanted to double-check the weld time for a 63mm electrofusion socket. He was surprised to learn that it only takes 65-70 seconds. It’s best to double-check, we say, so off we went to the warehouse to check an EF socket on …
Maxi stub flanges — comprising a hybrid stub flange and backing ring — are a quick and effective solution to reduce a flange size whilst keeping your HDPE pipeline internal diameter (ID) consistent. They’re particularly useful when your poly pipe system features a magnetic flow meter. That’s because maxi flange adaptors are specifically designed for …
Buttwelding is the most common type of welding process used to join High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) pipes and fittings. The process involves the joining of two plain ends together, using high temperatures and extreme pressure. HDPE buttwelding requires complicated formulas to work out the correct Heating and Pressure parameters. Each of these differ for every size …
Trim the pipe ends all the way around Clean the heater plates When clamping the pipes in place, use the clamps to re-round the pipes Correct procedure: Ask for evidence of recent, random weld inspections by your supervisors Pressure Measure the drag pressure Check the right fusion pressure Add the two together for the overall …
Poly pipe electrofusion welders are often needed to fit, join, or fabricate poly pipe on-site. Welders are most often used by maintenance crews on large scale jobs such as: water treatment plants chemical process plants; and commercial irrigation systems. They can also be used on civil projects such as: water pipelines or renewals; or fire …
