Perfect scraping every time gives you peace of mind for your poly weld

To guarantee a successful electrofusion joint, we want to make sure you have the right tools for your poly weld. Attention to preparation of the jointing surface is vital to ensure the pipe and fitting is clean and free from contamination.

Our Advanced Pipe Scrapers will effectively help prepare the poly pipe and fittings by removing the oxidised surface layer of the pipe over the socket depth.

Our Advanced Pipe Scrapers feature:

  • The ability to adjust the length of the scraping surface according to the depth of the electrofusion coupler
  • Precision in maintaining constant thickness
  • Extendable arms that clamp directly to the inside of the pipe or fitting keeping it stable.

Call us to discuss your pipe preparation needs and ensure you have the right equipment or view our rangeĀ here.
