Specyfication

High density polyethylene (HDPE) is not a typical welding material like steel or aluminum. HDPE is a plastic and its joints are typically made using thermoplastic welding processes that are specific to plastics. One of the most common ways to join HDPE is thermoplastic welding, especially electrofusion welding and heat welding is preferred.

- **HDPE electrofusion welding**: This is a popular method of connecting HDPE pipes in water supply and sewage applications. It involves introducing electric currents into the joined ends of pipes, which melts the pipe surfaces and creates a permanent connection.

- **HDPE Heat Welding**: In this case, the ends of HDPE pipes are heated and fused and then pressed together to create a permanent connection. This method is used in a variety of applications, including the production of structural elements and HDPE tanks.

In the case of HDPE welding, there are special devices and tools, such as electrofusion welders or thermal welders, that are adapted to process this plastic. There are also specific procedures and standards that must be followed when performing HDPE welding.

Therefore, if you need to connect HDPE elements in a durable and safe way, I recommend using the services of a professional welder or plastic welding specialist to ensure a proper and safe connection. HDPE welding requires specialized knowledge and experience.
