Leak-proof and Electrofusion fittings by Supreme Industries
By Staff Report | December 27, 2024 6:01 pm SHARE
Supreme Industries’ Electrofusion Fittings enable leak-proof, long-lasting PE pipeline connections with built-in heating coils. They offer smooth, corrosion-resistant joints for water, gas, and industrial applications.
PE pipes have recently acquired appeal throughout all distribution networks. Water, gas, and other fluids industries primarily use PE pipes in their distribution operations. Traditionally, these pipes were linked using the Butt Fusion/Socket Fusion procedure. This approach had a few flaws in the jointing quality, which caused leakage problems.
To address this faulty method, Supreme Industries has introduced improved Electrofusion Fittings. These fittings are vital for polyethylene (PE) pipelines because they provide a strong and efficient way to connect pipes used in water, gas, and other fluid transportation. Electrofusion is the process of fusing a fitting to a pipe using a built-in electrical heating coil, resulting in a solid bond that resists leaking and can tolerate a variety of environmental stressors.
How Electrofusion fittings work
Electrofusion fittings have an inside coil that warms up when an electric current is applied. This heat melts the inner surface of the fitting and the outer surface of the pipe, causing the materials to fuse. When the pipe cools, the resulting joint is solid and as strong as the pipe. This approach removes the need for extra materials such as adhesives or sealants, simplifying installation and ensuring long-term durability.
Benefits of electrofusion fittings
·Leak-proof connections: The fusion process produces a connection as strong as the pipe, preventing leaks and ensuring system integrity, which is especially important in gas and water applications.
·Corrosion resistance: Electrofusion fittings, made of high-density polyethylene, are highly resistant to corrosion and other chemical reactions, making them perfect for severe environments and underground installations.
·Easy and quick Installation: Electrofusion fittings require little equipment and may be fitted in less time than traditional methods, lowering labour expenses. The procedure’s automated nature also minimises human error, resulting in more consistent results.
·Versatility: These fittings, which include couplers, elbows, tees, and reducers, come in various forms and sizes to accommodate different pipeline layouts and requirements.
·Durability: Electrofusion fittings are long-lasting and can endure high pressure and temperature fluctuations, making them suited for domestic and industrial use.
Applications of electrofusion fittings
Electrofusion fittings are commonly used in water and gas distribution networks, sewage treatment, and industrial pipe systems. Their excellent durability and tolerance to environmental conditions make them perfect for underground installations, municipal projects, and places with frequent temperature variations. They are also widely employed in industries such as mining, construction, and oil and gas, where dependability is critical.
Electrofusion fittings significantly improve pipeline technology, providing a safe, leak-free, and efficient solution for various sectors. They are preferred for modern piping systems due to their corrosion resistance, ease of installation, and durability, ensuring fluid transport lifetime and safety.
