Details
Engineered for durability, built to last – Strongbridge offers high-density polyethylene (HDPE) electrofusion reducers with a wide range of sizes and pressure classes. Our reducer fittings are engineered for extreme durability and manufactured using HDPE PE4710/PE100 virgin resin, your best choice for a leak-free system.
Our industrial-grade heavy-duty reducers are fully pressure-rated for superior performance. Reducers connect two different diameter pipelines by reducing the pipe size from a larger to a smaller inner diameter.
Technical Notes
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.
Resin Specifications
Strongbridge fittings are manufactured using a bimodal high-density polyethylene (HDPE) compound, engineered for superior performance. This specialized pellet-form compound incorporates stabilizers and carbon black, ensuring long-term durability, UV resistance, and reliable stability in demanding applications.
