- Quick-change inserts cover smaller diameters down to 20mm without separate machines
- 110V and 240V models available for site cabin and workshop power on UK projects
- Lightweight body reduces fatigue during overhead socket fusion in plant rooms
Safety Standards
- Hot socket surfaces cause severe burns so use manufacturer-supplied handling aids
- Confirm de-energised heating before inserting pipe as premature contact causes cold fusion
- Do not force oversized pipe into socket and use correct insert for stated British pipe diameter
- Ventilate enclosed ceiling voids when fusing PPR on occupied British buildings
- Allow prescribed cooling time before pressurising newly fused joints
