How to solder polypropylene pipes

The process of spikes of polypropylene pipes is very simple. For this, just need some knowledge and proper screws for spike. The skill of the soldering of plastic pipes will be needed in cases where the owner is solved to take on the independent repair of the water supply, without resorting to assistance. All necessary tools for soldering pipes must be in a home workshop. If there are no such tools in the set, you can lend them or rent in specialized stores.

How to solder polypropylene pipes - materials

Preparation of materials for work is an important part of the process. Since without high-quality tools it will be difficult to make a good job. Therefore, during the acquisition of materials from the list, you need to approach the issue of the issue with all thoroughness. For work, you will need a list of tools and other devices.

  • Welding machine.
  • Polypropylene pipes.
  • Marker or pencil.
  • Measuring tape.
  • Manual sweep for pipe reinforced pipes.
  • Scissors for cutting plastic pipes.
  • Rubber protective gloves.
  • Loading vest for trifles.

How to solder polypropylene pipes - process

  • Spike process. An experienced master of all the tools there, except the welding machine. After the device is produced, it is mastered.
  • The welding machine for polypropylene pipes is also called an iron. In the main part of the ironing contains special fastening side, which can be installed under the nozzle pipe diameters. Also placed switches and switches.
  • The device is equipped with a stable leg so that the tool holds the balance and does not fall. The iron on the dimensions is small, so it is convenient to post it near the pipes if the spike has to be carried out on the spot. To do this, it is necessary to carefully block the water so that the drops do not proceed through the holes in the pipes. A drop of water will cool the spike, spoil the pipe. If the work is carried out with portable elements, it should be accommodated on a flat surface, for example, a table. All tools should always be at hand.
  • The soldering iron is fixed on the table so that it is easy to get to the iron to the iron. Clamps can be used for fixing the device. Locked nozzles for pipes on the side of the ironing sides. The device is included in the electrical network, the power button is pressed on the iron, the temperature on the soldering iron is set - 260 ° C.
  • Two pieces of pipes that match are prepared. Slices are cut as soon as possible, so as not to spoil the future seam. To do this, take scissors for cutting plastic pipes. The welded zones on the ends of the pipe are measured by the marker and tape measure.
  • Manual sweep will be needed if polypropylene pipes with reinforce are welded. After performing circular movements, the upper layer of reinforcement is cut. Pipes are visually trying, but do not dress without heating. In case the diameters are suitable, and nothing hangs out, the pipes are considered ready for spike.
  • After the device heated, the spike process begins. For this, the measurement and stripped pipes are commemorated from two sides of the nozzles at the same time and wear. Mobility is performed. Work is done from the first time. The heating time of pipes on the iron is 5 seconds, not more. Next, the pipes are taken as gently as dressed. And immediately dock smoothly.
  • During the docking, there may be nuances in the form of the resulting "skirts". It is not dangerous, the skirt is smoothed by rubberized gloves. The welding of the polypropylene tube is considered complete.

Working with polypropylene tubes, in the presence of good tools, produced quickly, during the day. Before proceeding with the task, the newcomer should be practiced on an unnecessary segment, following the instructions from the manufacturer, as well as other useful information. If errors are allowed during the spike process, in some cases it is possible to fix it. To do this, you will need an ordinary drill and the drill of a suitable diameter to the drilled tube. Incorrectly walled plot dried. Moreover, you need to act as a drill so as not to shake the propagation on the trunk, but on the contrary, pull out the outside.
