Electro Fusion Joint
Electrofusion is aneasy method of joining PE pipes in circumstances where butt fusion is not possible, such as above ground, repairing areas. An electrical heating coil which melts the plastic of both the fitting and the pipe, causing them to fuse together.
What is an Electro Fusion Joint?
An Electro Fusion Joint is a fusion welding method used to join HDPE / PE pipes and fittings using an integrated electrical heating coil. When electric current is applied, the coil heats up and melts the plastic of both the pipe and the electrofusion fitting, allowing them to fuse together into a single, homogeneous joint.
Electro Fusion Jointing Process
Integral Pipeline follows a controlled and precise procedure to ensure joint quality:
Cleaning and scraping of pipe surfaces
Proper alignment and clamping of pipes and fittings
Connection of electrofusion terminals to control unit
Controlled application of electric current
Fusion and cooling as per specified parameters
Visual inspection and joint verification
All electrofusion works are carried out using certified equipment and trained technicians.

Yes. When installed correctly using approved fittings and controlled fusion parameters, electrofusion joints are suitable for pressure-rated HDPE / PE pipelines, including water and gas applications.
Electro fusion joints provide high reliability and consistent quality, as fusion parameters are controlled electronically. Proper surface preparation and cooling ensure long-term joint performance.
An Electro Fusion Joint is a method of joining HDPE / PE pipes and fittings using an integrated electrical heating coil that melts and fuses the pipe and fitting together to form a strong, leak-proof joint.
