Characteristics of Socket Fusion Coupler
- Non-toxic: Made from virgin materials, the Socket Fusion Coupler is non-toxic, tasteless, and never scales, ensuring improved water quality.
- Corrosion resistance: It has high resistance to various types of chemicals and no electrochemical corrosion.
- No Leakage: The coupler’s connection points, welded through butt fusion, socket fusion, or electrofusion, are stronger than the pipe itself.
- Higher flow capacity: The smooth inner wall facilitates pipeline transportation, increasing delivery capacity by 30% under the same conditions.
- Convenient for construction and installation: It can be installed in various trenchless ways, making construction and installation very convenient.
- Lower maintenance costs: The coupler reduces worker labor intensity and improves work efficiency, making it easy to transport and install.
- Longevity: Designed for a 50-year service lifespan under reasonable conditions.
- Recycled and environment-friendly: It does not scale or breed bacteria, thus solving the secondary pollution of drinking water.
