Electrofusion 90° Elbows

Engineered for durability, built to last – Strongbridge’s HDPE electrofusion 90° elbows provide extreme durability and the largest pressure class and size range available. Our industrial-grade HDPE electrofusion 90° elbows are engineered for PE3408, PE4710 & PE100 HDPE pipe systems, and manufactured using PE4710 / PE100 virgin resin for a leak-free system.

Our heavy-duty 90° elbows are fully pressure rated for superior performance. They are lightweight, easy to install, and resistant to chemicals, impacts, corrosion, and abrasion. These electrofusion HDPE fittings provide a seamless connection that allows for the transportation of water, fluids, gas, and slurries within existing HDPE piping systems, eliminating the need for additional fittings or welding.

Our electrofusion 90° elbow joins two lengths of poly pipe on an angle of 90 degrees. It also joins a long spigot fitting to a piece of pipe around a 90° corner. When the fitting is securely attached to the existing HDPE pipe and linked to a Strongbridge electrofusion processor, the outer barcode, containing a 24-digit code with information about the fitting and fusion parameters, is scanned. This ensures a high-quality fusion process. An electric current is then applied to the integrated electrofusion wire coil, which heats the PE4710/100 virgin resin materials, causing them to melt and fuse with the existing pipe.

After cooling down, the 90° elbow forms a reliable and sealed connection, ensuring the smooth flow of fluids. This installation method simplifies the process, guarantees a dependable connection, and facilitates easy expansion or modification of the pipeline.

TEGA electrofusion fittings may be fused at ambient temperatures of between 0°C (+32°F) and +45°C (+115°F). If job site conditions are such that the pipe and fitting temperature is below this range, the installer should use a tent and heater to warm the pipe and electrofusion fitting to within the allowable temperature range. Special care should be taken to provide a balanced temperature level of both pipes and fittings before fitment and fusion operation.
