What is the load capacity of welded PE100 pipe and fittings?
PE100 can be welded without restriction. The butt-weld process and the electrofusion process should be performed according to your national guidelines. In case of application of welded fittings, made from pipe, a reduced pressure load has to be taken into account. The amount of pressure reduction depends on the fysical shape of the product. The reduction factor related to the temperature is given in appendix B2 in our Specification Manual. If you require more information please contact us.
