Electrofusion Equal Tees

Engineered for durability, built to last – Strongbridge’s extremely durable polyethylene (HDPE) electrofusion equal tees offer the largest pressure class and size range available. Our industrial grade HDPE equal tees are manufactured using HDPE PE4710 / PE100 virgin resin for a leak-free system.

Our heavy-duty equal tees are fully pressure rated for superior performance, lightweight, easy to install, and resistant to chemicals, impacts, corrosion, and abrasion.

These electrofusion HDPE fittings create a branch 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.

When our equal tee is securely attached to the existing HDPE pipe and linked to a Strongbridge electrofusion processor, the outer barcode, containing a 24-digit code that contains 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 equal tee forms a sealed branch outlet, allowing for the connection of another pipe or fitting. This installation method simplifies the process, guarantees a dependable connection, and facilitates easy expansion or modification of the pipeline.

Engineered for PE3408, PE4710, PE100 HDPE Pipe Systems.

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.
