BE-15 Pipes and Materials: Welding of Plastic Pipes

Heating element butt welding

Relocating

After heating-up, the joining areas are to be removed from the heating element. The heating element is to be taken out without damaging or soiling the heated joining areas. The joining areas are to be brought together quickly until they almost meet. The relocating time is to be kept as short as possible as otherwise the plastified areas cool down. This would have negative effects on the quality of the welding seam.
