HDPE Socket Fusion Fittings

Description

Description of HDPE Socket Fusion Fittings

Heat fusion is based on heating two surfaces to a specified temperature and then applying enough force to cause the materials to flow and mix, thereby fusing them together. When welded according to the manufacturer’s recommended procedures and cooled to near ambient temperature, the joint will become strong in tension and compression as the pipe itself.
HDPE socket fusion fittings are a type of heat fusion connection, mainly used for small-diameter HDPE pipes of DN20-110mm. The pipe form can be a straight pipe or a coil. The diameter of the PE socket fittings is slightly larger than that of the PE pipe. Use a special socket welding machine, select a die head of the corresponding diameter, and after hot-melting the PE socket fittings and the PE pipe, insert the PE pipe into the fittings to complete the hot-melt connection.

Commonly used HDPE socket fusion fittings are socket coupling, socket reducer, equal tee, reducer tee, 90 degree 45 degree elbow, stub end, end cap, female coupling, male coupling, male and female tee, ball valve etc.

Our PE pipe fittings have various specifications and models to meet different pipe connection requirements. Whether it is domestic water pipes or industrial uses, we can provide suitable PE pipe fittings.

Advantages of HDPE Socket Fusion Fittings
1. Good sealing at the connection: The socket connection is a connection method formed by heating the end of the pipe and inserting it into the pipe fitting, and then heating and cooling it. The connection is very tight and can effectively prevent leakage.
2. Corrosion resistance, pressure resistance and impact resistance: It has the corrosion resistance of polyethylene materials, and this connection method is not easy to break, and can withstand the pressure and tension that are consistent with the design grade requirements.
3. Long service life: The service life of the hot-melt socket connection is up to 50 years, which is the same as the service life of the pipeline system.
4. Space saving: Since the inner wall of the hot-melt socket connection has no flange, no annular blockage is formed, the internal wall is not hung, and the water flow capacity is strong.
5. Simple and quick installation, only a hot-melt socket welding machine is required, and no large tools are required.

Operation Steps for HDPE Socket Fusion Fittings Installation

Step 1: Prepare a socket fusion welding machine and a die head of the corresponding diameter, and set the heating temperature to 260 degrees Celsius.
Step 2: Mark the insertion depth
Step 3: Cut and clean the surface and inside of the pipe.
Step 4: If the pipe wall thickness is less than 3mm, a reinforcing rib needs to be inserted inside the pipe mouth. See the specific requirements of the pipe supplier.
Step 5: Insert the cleaned pipe into the die for heating.
Step 6: Insert the heated pipe into the pipe fitting and hot melt it.
