Heat fusion process is a widely used and recognized technology for welding high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes. It has become increasingly popular when it comes to forming HDPE spiral pipe due to its high success rate and minimal risk of defects. Compared to other welding processes, heat fusion requires no additional hardware, making it easier and more cost-effective to use. The process involves heating the surface of the pipe to a specific temperature and then pressing the two pieces together, forming an oxygen-tight seal.

  • Preparation of the HDPE pipe

  • Heating the pipe ends

  • Aligning the pipe ends

  • Applying pressure to fuse the pipe ends

  • Cooling the fused pipe ends

HDPE spiral pipe

Preparation of the HDPE pipe

The first step in the heat fusion process for forming HDPE spiral pipe is the preparation of the HDPE pipe. This involves ensuring that the pipe is cut to the desired length and that the end of the pipe is square and free of any irregularities. The square end of the pipe should also be cleaned using a brush and solvent, to ensure that the fusion surfaces are free of dirt, oil, and other contaminants. Once the pipe is properly prepared, it should be placed into the fusion machine, which will heat the pipes and then fuse them together.

Heating the pipe ends

After the HDPE spiral pipe ends are cut to length, the ends will need to be heated for the heat fusion process. This should be done using specialized electric fusion heaters. Place the pipe ends into the fusion heater, making sure that the pipe ends are fully inserted into the heater. Use the appropriate heat settings for the pipe size you are working with, and allow the pipe ends to heat for a few minutes. Once the pipe ends are heated, they will be ready to be joined together with the fusion process.

Aligning the pipe ends

After the HDPE spiral pipe ends are cut, the next step in the heat fusion process is to align the pipe ends so the pipe can be joined. To ensure a precise fit, the two ends should be placed side by side and the beveled edges should be aligned. Once properly aligned, the pipe should be clamped together and checked with a straight edge to ensure the pipe is in a straight line before the heating process begins.

Applying pressure to fuse the pipe ends

The fourth step in the heat fusion process for forming HDPE spiral pipe is applying pressure to fuse the pipe ends. This is an essential step to ensure that the connection between the two ends of the pipe is tight and secure. The pressure should be applied evenly to the ends of the pipe, and the temperature should be carefully monitored throughout the process. Doing this will help ensure that the pipe ends are properly fused together and do not have any gaps or weak spots in the connection.

Cooling the fused pipe ends

The fifth step in the heat fusion process for forming HDPE spiral pipe is cooling the fused pipe ends. To ensure that the pipe ends are cooled evenly, it is important to cool each end separately at the same time. This can be done by either immersing the pipe into a bucket of cold water or by using water from a garden hose or any other suitable source. Once the pipe ends have cooled to the desired temperature, the fusion process is complete, and the HDPE spiral pipe is ready for use.

It is an ideal method for forming HDPE spiral pipe for a variety of applications. HDPE spiral pipe products are all made with high-quality craftsmanship, welcome to consult Eagle.
