Key Features of HDPE Electrofusion Blocking/Plugging Saddle for Fuel Gas

  • Electrofusion welding: has built-in resistance wire for automatic welding with high joint strength and gas tightness.
  • Blocking dedicated: forms a permanent seal directly on the saddle without cutting the main pipe.
  • Material compatibility: provides homogeneous connection with PE80, PE100, and PE100RC pipes with no galvanic corrosion.
  • Fuel gas resistant: meets rapid crack propagation and long-term hydrostatic strength requirements.

Manufacturing Process of HDPE Electrofusion Blocking/Plugging Saddle for Fuel Gas

Each is produced with precisely embedded resistance wire to enable automated electrofusion welding.

Critical Process Parameters of HDPE Electrofusion Blocking/Plugging Saddle for Fuel Gas

  • Uniformity of resistance wire coil spacing and embedding depth.
  • Cleanliness and oxide layer treatment of the welding interface.
  • Calibration of electrofusion voltage and time to match pipe material.

Raw Material Characteristics of HDPE Electrofusion Blocking/Plugging Saddle for Fuel Gas

  • PE80: MRS 8.0 MPa, suitable for medium and low pressure gas networks.
  • PE100: MRS 10.0 MPa, preferred for high pressure gas service.
  • PE100RC: combines PE100 strength with point load resistance.

Typical Applications of HDPE Electrofusion Blocking/Plugging Saddle for Fuel Gas

  • The fitting provides permanent sealing of abandoned branch outlets on gas mains.
  • safely plugs old openings after pipeline rerouting.
  • closes temporary tapping holes after maintenance or testing.

Application Scenarios of HDPE Electrofusion Blocking/Plugging Saddle for Fuel Gas

  • Nodes in urban medium/low pressure gas networks where reserved branches need to be blocked — is the standard fitting for these closures.
