Our factory-certified trainers offer on-site skill training and educational programs that focus on HDPE, PP-R and PP-RCT pipe fusion. Explore our capabilities and see what makes us an industry-leading provider of pipe fusion services.
PP-R & PP-RCT pipe fusion training
Wherever you need PP-R or PP-RCT fusion training, we can help with hundreds of Ferguson associates who are certified fusion technicians across the U.S. We provide training on PP-R and PP-RCT fusion, including socket fusion for pipe 4" and smaller and butt fusion for pipe 4" - 24", as well as electrofusion training. We train your crew how to operate the following brands of pipe fusion machines:
WIDOS welding machines
McElroy
Ritmo America
Our trainers will make sure each person gets the individual attention they need to ensure they can safely and effectively fuse PP-R and PP-RCT pipe. We will also show your crew how to properly pressure test their work for a guaranteed leak-free fuse.
HDPE pipe fusion training
Our HDPE pipe fusion training meets the standards set by the American Society for Testing and Materials, or ASTM. From small hand-held fusion equipment to larger electrofusion machines, Ferguson is your source for comprehensive HDPE fusion training solutions, including electrofusion, butt fusion, saddle fusion and socket fusion.
Our trainers are certified McElroy master trainers, receive regular retraining to keep up with new industry standards, and can train your crew at McElroy’s facility in Tulsa, OK, or at your location.
Ferguson teaches to any HDPE fusion certification, including fusion for gas lines. Upon completion of training, your crew is tested in order to receive their ASTM pipe fusion card, which qualifies them to fuse HDPE pipe for up to one year after issue.
We also provide data logger training to test the quality of a finished HDPE pipe fusion job. This allows you to capture all of the pipe fusion data and ensures every fuse meets ASTM standards.
