Electrofusion Welding Services

What We Do | Electrofusion Welding and Fitting

At SES, we provide a comprehensive service for Electrofusion Welding throughout Ireland, specialising in creating durable electrofusion joints and welds. Our skilled team is equipped with the latest in HDPE pipes and fittings technology, ensuring top-quality on-site electrofusion and butt fusion welding services.

Electrofusion welding is a preferred method for joining PE pipes, utilising advanced techniques that involve electro fusion couplers with implanted metal coils. These coils are activated to generate heat, melting and bonding the pipe ends to form a secure electrofusion joint. This process is particularly valued for its precision in forming strong, homogeneous joints that maintain the integrity of the pipe systems under varying pressures.

The Welding Process

Our electrofusion welding process begins with meticulous preparation of the pipes. A specialized pipe cutter ensures each section is cut cleanly and squared for alignment. The fusion zone is then prepared, where the implanted metal coils within the fitting are heated to the precise temperature needed to fuse the pipe and fitting together seamlessly.

Our welding technicians are experts in managing the fusion settings to adapt to different pipe diameters and material types, ensuring a perfect weld every time. From small diameter residential connections to large diameter industrial installations, our services are versatile and reliable.
