Description
The Branch Saddle is a high-performance industrial electrofusion fitting designed for seamless integration with HDPE poly pipe systems, ensuring reliable and efficient connections in various applications. This innovative fitting utilises embedded heating wires that are energised by an electrofusion control unit, employing resistive electrofusion welding to create a robust bond with the polyethylene pipe surface. Compatible with a range of electrofusion control units, butt-weld pipework, and stub flange kits, the Branch Saddle guarantees leak-free permanent joints that are essential for maintaining system integrity. Its traceable jointing process enhances accountability and quality assurance, making it ideal for projects requiring stringent compliance. Furthermore, the design of the Branch Saddle allows for easy installation in trench and confined-space environments, providing versatility and convenience for contractors. With proven reliability in pressurised systems, this electrofusion fitting is engineered to deliver exceptional performance, ensuring long-lasting and maintenance-free operation in demanding industrial settings.
