The McElroy MegaMc® 1236 will butt fuse pipe sizes from 12” IPS to 36” OD (340mm to 900mm). Above ground or in the ditch, the 1236 brings the flexibility of smaller machines to large-diameter fusion.
The carriage has 4 jaws, with a removable 3-jaw carriage and is capable of top-loading the heater and facer to maximize functionality within limited space. The MegaMc 1236 features hydraulically powered assists for all fusion operations, including the operation of the jaws, pipe lifts, heater and facer. The machine allows for butt fusion of most fittings without special holders or removal of the outer jaw. Mitered inserts are available for fabricating ells.
