The Footage Tools' compact Butt Fusion System is designed to fuse PE and HDPE pipe up to 6" in diameter making it ideal for many applications

Trimming or facing the pipe is simple using the gear drive power facing tool, which is positioned between the pipe clamps using the guide pins. Guide plugs on the facing tool fit inside the pipe wall and assist in holding the pipe firmly in place during the facing operation.

The heating irons set at 500 deg. F (260 deg. C) are used to heat fuse the pipe. The irons are positioned using the same guide pins located on the pipe clamps.

The Butt Fusion machine features a four clamp system that provided added strength when fusing PE pipe sizes ranging from 1 ¼" to 6" in diameter.

Clamp movement is generated by the operator through a rack and pinion style mechanism that applies consistent pressure with minimum effort.
