What Is Electrofusion and How Does It Work?

It is a popular welding method used to join high and medium-density polyethene piping. It can also be found on various plastic-based pipes. Electrofusion welds parts together using special fittings with built-in electric heating components. The ends of the pipes that will be welded are cleansed to begin the operation. They're then inserted into the electrofusion fitting, and voltage is supplied to the connection to fuse it—the heating coils melt the pipe wall and the fitting on the outside. A strong homogenous joint is formed after the assembly cools. If done correctly, the connection will be as robust as the original pipe and will be able to sustain all of the loads required for standard installation. Equipment: Electrofusion welding necessitates the use of specific equipment. Before welding, these items should be prepared. The welding process will not be disrupted in this way. The electrofusion welding equipment includes a scraping tool, measuring instrument, mark pen, cutting t...
