It is used to securely close the end of a polyethylene pipe by electrofusion, forming a permanent and resistant joint through a controlled electrofusion process.
The electrofusion PE end cap is used to securely seal the end of a polyethylene pipe using electrofusion. This type of fitting incorporates an electric heating element which, when used with compatible electrofusion equipment, heats the joint area in a controlled manner, resulting in a homogeneous and durable connection. It is commonly used in water supply systems, irrigation, hydraulic networks, and pressurized PE pipelines. Before installation, it is important to verify the pipe diameter, SDR (Supplementary Diameter) or series, working pressure, material compatibility, and welding parameters specified by the manufacturer . To achieve a proper joint, the surfaces must be adequately prepared, the pipe scraped and cleaned as needed, the parts kept aligned during the process, and the welding and cooling times must be respected.
