Key Features

1/2" CTS to 2" IPS Fusion Capability

Designed for socket fusion of polyethylene pipe and fittings ranging from 1/2" CTS through 2" IPS, covering common service and utility piping applications.

Complete Socket Fusion Tooling Kit

Kit configurations bring together the primary equipment needed for socket fusion, helping crews avoid purchasing and managing every component separately.

Application-Specific Heater Adapters

Included heater adapters are matched to the designated pipe-size range to support proper heating of the pipe and fitting during fusion.

Microprocessor Heater Temperature Control

The heater system uses microprocessor temperature control to support consistent heating performance during PE socket fusion procedures

Integrated Dial Thermometer

A dial thermometer provides technicians with a convenient way to monitor heater temperature during operation.

120V and 240V Configurations

Available heater voltage options give contractors and utility crews flexibility based on available jobsite power.

Pipe Preparation Tooling

Depending on configuration, kits include cutting and chamfering tools along with cold rings to support proper preparation and alignment of polyethylene pipe.

Organized Storage System

Dedicated storage boxes and trays keep fusion equipment consolidated and help protect components during transportation and jobsite storage.

Industry Standards-Focused Design

The tooling is designed to meet ASTM F1056, ISO 8085-1, and ISO 4437 requirements for applicable polyethylene fusion operations.

Benefits

Achieve Consistent PE Fusion Joints

Matched heater adapters and purpose-built socket fusion tooling help technicians control the preparation and heating process for repeatable polyethylene pipe connections.

Improve Jobsite Productivity

Providing the primary fusion components together in one kit reduces time spent sourcing individual tools and helps crews get set up for fusion work more efficiently.

Keep Fusion Equipment Organized

Dedicated storage keeps heaters, adapters, preparation tools, and other components together, reducing the chance of misplaced equipment and simplifying transportation between jobsites.

Cover Common PE Service Pipe Sizes

Support for sizes from 1/2" CTS through 2" IPS gives crews a versatile solution for a broad range of utility, gas, water, and underground polyethylene piping projects.

Adapt to Different Power Requirements

Availability in both 120V and 240V configurations makes it easier to select equipment that matches the electrical supply available on the jobsite.

Support Quality-Control Requirements

Tooling designed around recognized ASTM and ISO requirements helps crews follow established practices for polyethylene socket fusion applications.
