Effective November 1, Cimco is expanding its representation of Harco Fittings. In addition to our existing lineup of butt fusion fittings, stiffeners, and adaptors, we will now represent three more HDPE product categories:
HDPE Electrofusion Molded Fittings
HDPE Socket Fusion Molded Fittings
HDPE Valves
Our expanded representation covers waterworks and industrial markets throughout Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, and Alaska.
About Electrofusion
Electrofusion is a method of joining HDPE pipe using fittings with built-in heating elements. When an electric current passes through these elements, they heat and melt the plastic where the pipe and fitting meet. As the material cools, it fuses together to form a strong, sealed connection. Electrofusion is particularly useful for repairs, tight spaces, and installations where conventional butt fusion equipment may be difficult to use.
