摘要:
The invention provides a weldable plastics pipe fitting in which a groove, at least the majority of which is helical or spiral, is disposed in or on a fusion wall 19 of the fitting, from an outer part to an inner part thereof and an electrical heating wire 17,23 is located within the groove and connected at each end to an input/output terminal 18,22, wherein a lead-in portion of the groove is disposed entering from the outer part of the fitting to the inner part, and a lead-in portion 17 of the electrical wire located therein is buried beneath the surface of the fusion wall 19 throughout at least the majority of its length at a depth which at its least is substantially more than the diameter of the heating wire, and wherein a helical or spiral portion 23 of the groove continuing from the lead-in portion thereof runs from the inner part of the fitting to the outer part, the heating wire laid therein being located such as to be at or adjacent the surface of the fusion wall 19 of the fitting, the terminals 18,22 for each end of the heating wire being disposed on the fitting at or adjacent the outer part thereof, and the helical or spiral portion of the groove, and the wire disposed therein, overlying the lead-in portion of the wire 17 and the groove.
