HDPE Electrofusion Fittings

The Electrofusion Universal Joint Fitting represents an advanced solution for polyethylene piping systems requiring angular flexibility and movement accommodation while maintaining the reliability of permanent electrofusion connections. This sophisticated fitting incorporates dual electrofusion connection points linked by a precision-engineered articulated joint mechanism that accommodates multi-directional angular movement, thermal expansion, and ground settlement without compromising connection integrity. The universal joint design features carefully calculated pivot points and movement ranges that prevent over-stress while providing the flexibility necessary for challenging installations including river crossings, unstable ground conditions, and applications subject to structural movement. The electrofusion connections utilize standard heating coil technology for reliable fusion bonds, while the joint mechanism incorporates corrosion-resistant materials and sealing systems designed for long-term buried service. The robust construction handles both the mechanical stresses of joint articulation and the environmental challenges of underground installation, while maintaining full system pressure capability throughout the design movement range. Essential for challenging terrain installations, seismic applications, infrastructure crossings, and installations subject to ground movement where rigid connections would fail, providing reliable service in gas distribution systems, water infrastructure, and industrial applications requiring permanent connections with flexibility for operational and environmental conditions.
