60° PE100 LONG SEGMENT WELDED BEND, SDR26

The segment-welded 60° bend in PE100 is a robust and reliable solution for installations that require high strength and tightness. This bend is made from PE100, a high-quality polyethylene material that provides excellent resistance to both mechanical and chemical influences. The bends are supplied as standard in SDR26 and are completely black, which gives them high resistance to UV radiation, making them ideal for both indoor and outdoor installations.

The bend is segment-welded, meaning it is composed of segments that are welded together to create a strong and tight connection between the three pipe sections. This welding method ensures high precision and durability, making the bend perfect for both pressure pipelines and other applications.

With a safety factor of 0.8, the segment-welded bend in SDR26 is designed to withstand a maximum pressure of 4,8 bar, making it ideal for many pressurized systems.

The most commonly used assembly techniques are:

• Butt fusion welding: A method where pipes and fittings are melted together under high heat, creating a strong and tight joint. This is the primary method for assembling segment-welded fittings.
• Electrofusion welding: Can be used to join pipes and fittings with an integrated electrofusion function. This method provides a tight and reliable connection without the need for additional gaskets or seals.

There is also the option for custom orders with adjustments such as bead removal and color change, special lengths, allowing the bend to be tailored to specific requirements and installations.
