Electrofusion Contact Pins.
Precision contact pins for electrofusion welding fittings used in gas and water pipeline infrastructure worldwide.
Electrofusion welding is a critical step in building the underground piping systems that carry water, gas, and other essential utilities. At Gebrema we manufacture the high-precision contact pins that play a small but decisive role in making those welds strong, consistent, and safe.
Why reliable contact pins matter
During electrofusion, current passes through metal coils embedded in plastic fittings, generating the heat that melts and fuses the surrounding pipe. The contact pins carry that current, and if they fail, the weld fails.
- Dimensionally precise, for a secure connection with welding equipment
- Mechanically stable, to withstand the stresses of field installation
- Surface-clean and consistent, for reliable current flow and even heat distribution
- Stable, high-volume production capacity
- Lead-free material options, aligned with evolving environmental regulations
Used in critical infrastructure
The plastic piping systems joined by electrofusion welding run through municipal water networks, natural gas distribution, sewage and stormwater systems, and industrial fluid handling. These networks are usually buried underground and designed to last for decades.
