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 effective installation in trench and confined-space environments, providing versatility and ease of use. With proven reliability in pressurised systems, this fitting is engineered to deliver consistent performance, making it a preferred choice for professionals in the industry seeking durable and efficient solutions for their piping needs.
