HDPE Butt Fusion Cap
The HDPE Butt Fusion Cap is a high-quality end fitting used to seal the end of HDPE pipelines, providing a reliable and durable closure. Made from PE100 high-density polyethylene, this cap is engineered for long-term performance in a variety of fluid handling systems, including water supply, gas, industrial, and wastewater pipelines. It is installed using butt fusion welding, ensuring a strong, leak-proof, and permanent joint. Ideal for both temporary and permanent pipe termination, the HDPE Butt Fusion Cap is resistant to corrosion, chemicals, and UV exposure.

HDPE PIPE FITTINGS
HDPE Electro Fusion Fittings
Electrofusion fittings are specialized HDPE components designed with embedded electric heating elements that, when energized, melt and fuse the fitting to the pipe surface. This technique provides a secure, leak-proof, and durable joint, making it ideal for high-pressure and critical pipeline applications. Electrofusion is especially preferred when working in confined spaces, where using large butt fusion equipment is impractical.
HDPE Butt Fusion Fittings
Butt fusion fittings are one of the most reliable and widely used types of HDPE pipe fittings. These fittings are joined using a butt fusion welding process, which involves heating the ends of both the pipe and the fitting to a precise temperature (typically around 200–220°C), then pressing them together under controlled pressure until they fuse into a single continuous piece. This results in a permanent, seamless, and high-integrity joint.
