Strongbridge Tega Electrofusion Welding Machine
To fuse pipes and fittings, we use the Strongbridge Tega electrofusion welding machine. Visit the Strongbridge Tega website to learn more about this innovative product.

Genesis F3™ Electrofusion Processor
The Genesis F3™ Electrofusion Processor is a very reliable, rugged, and easy-to-use electrofusion processor that lives up to the high demands of worksites throughout the world. While you can go over the specifications in the Genesis F3™ operator guide (PDF) for yourself, we can sum up its benefits in just a few words: the Genesis F3™ delivers exceptional results for our customers.

LMX200™ Ground-Penetrating Radar

The premier ground penetrating radar (GPR) locating tool in the market today, the LMX200™ ground-penetrating radar acquires geo-reference data, creates depth slices on-site and wirelessly exports all information in formatted reports. This unit delivers unprecedented insights and target confidence. The LMX200™ can detect traditionally non-locatable subsurface features, such as:

  • Non-metallic pipes, including PVC and asbestos cement
  • Concrete storm and sewer systems
  • Utilities where installed tracer wiring has failed
  • Underground storage tanks and drainage tiles
  • Septic system components
  • Non-utility structures such as vaults, foundation walls and concrete pads

We employ the Strongbridge Tega electrofusion welding machine and Genesis F3™ Electrofusion Processor to completely fuse pipes and fittings.
