Poly Welding – Butt and Electrofusion Methods – Gladstone

This Poly Welding using Butt Welding and Electrofusion Welding methods is a course we run from our Gladstone training centre. This combined Poly Welding course includes the theoretical and practical components to meet the skills and knowledge required to undertake polyethylene welding (also known as poly welding) using both Butt and Electrofusion welding equipment. This is a combined course run over two consecutive days. If you require just the Butt Welding or just the Electrofusion Welding course, these are available separately.

This Gladstone based course is relevant to participants who may be involved in the installation and maintenance of pipelines transmitting gas and liquids, as well as those working in the mining sector.

Participants will gain the following skills and knowledge in relation to both methods of welding:

• Identifying materials being used in the installation as compatible for welding using butt welding and electrofusion methods
• Calculating appropriate welding parameters to be used
• Maintaining and calibrating welding equipment
• Performing welding
• Assessing quality of welded joints made

Training and assessment is conducted at Harness Energy Training facilities. Optionally, training and assessment can be conducted at the premises of industry clients providing there are suitable industry training facilities.
