PE100 Electrofusion Transition Adapter Brass Female Thread SDR11

  Data Sheet |   Product Range | Instructional Video

The Georg Fischer ELGEF Plus PE100 transition adapter with brass female thread is an engineered electrofusion fitting designed for direct, leak-tight transitions between high-density polyethylene pipelines and threaded metallic valves, fittings, or instrumentation. Manufactured from fully compounded, virgin PE100 resin combined with a precision-machined brass threaded insert, this transition fitting guarantees long-term mechanical anchorage and pressure containment in critical utility and industrial piping infrastructures. The internal brass thread provides high torsional resistance during joint assembly, preventing creep and stress relaxation under fluctuating operating conditions.

Rated for continuous operating pressures up to 16 bar for water applications and 10 bar for natural gas distribution, this SDR11 transition fitting conforms to the rigorous performance requirements of EN 12201-1 and EN 1555-3. The electrofusion socket incorporates standard 4 mm connector pins and embedded resistance heating wires optimized for uniform thermal distribution during the welding sequence. Integrated pipe fixation mechanisms in standard diameters ensure accurate pipe alignment and prevent displacement during heating and cooling cycles, while limited-path fusion indicators give clear visual confirmation of completed weld energy delivery.

This hybrid transition coupler eliminates the need for loose backing flanges or bulky mechanical couplings when connecting PE networks to threaded bronze or brass control valves, water meters, and auxiliary components. Its corrosion-resistant construction withstands aggressive soil conditions, UV radiation, and broad chemical exposure without surface degradation. Designed for direct electrofusion welding onto standard PE100, PE100-RC, and PE80 piping systems, this Georg Fischer fitting delivers exceptional operational longevity and complete batch traceability for infrastructure asset management.
