From January 2026, PE Pipeline Specialists will be stocking the complete Fusion range of electrofusion branch saddles and flanged branch saddles.
For too long, contractors and utilities have faced a familiar frustration: finding the right branch saddle specification, placing an order, and then waiting up to 12 weeks for delivery. Project timelines stretch, costs escalate, and teams are left idle waiting for critical components.
Starting January, PE Pipeline Specialists is eliminating this bottleneck entirely by delivering within 24 hours!
Fusamatic Branch Saddles provide proven solutions for bypass operations, system purging, and service connections on large-diameter pipeline infrastructure. Through electrofusion technology, utilities, engineering consultants, and installation contractors can develop completely welded polyethylene networks. The manufacturing quality, reliability and versatility of electrofusion fittings gives the confidence and peace of mind needed for polyethylene pipe jointing.
Small diameter outlets

Medium diameter outlets
90mm to 125mm outlets on 90mm to 630mm bodies
Large diameter outlets
160mm to 180mm outlets on 315mm to 630mm bodies
DN80/100 flanged outlets
For 90mm to 250mm pipe bodies
DN150 flanged outlets
For 250mm to 400mm pipe bodies (including ALH flowstop design)
DN150/200/250 flanged outlets
For 250mm to 630mm pipe bodies
All fittings are manufactured to PE100 specifications, with pressure ratings of PN16 for water and 10 Bar for gas applications, and comply with EN ISO 15494, EN 12201-3, EN 1555-3, ISO 4437-3, and ISO 4427-3 standards.
You may be in the middle of a project and discover you need a 315x150mm flanged branch saddle for a bypass installation.
Traditionally, you would order through a supplier, and would usually have to wait at least 12 weeks for delivery, and to install on the 13th week, if everything goes swimmingly.
However, with PE Pipeline Specialists, you can order before cutoff, have your fitting delivered and installation complete the next day, meaning your project can move forward.
The difference is transformative not just for project planning, but for efficiency and cash flow management.
These branch saddles serve critical functions across multiple sectors:
Gas networks
Creating live connection points and bypass systems
Water utilities
Service connections and main reinforcement
Wastewater systems
Pumping station connections and overflow management
Irrigation
Distribution network branch connections
Mining operations
Process water distribution
From January, PE Pipeline Specialists transforms how you approach polyethylene pipeline projects. Instead of building 12-week lead times into every specification that requires a branch saddle, you can plan with confidence.
With PE Pipeline Specialists’ stock availability, emergency repairs and unplanned connections no longer mean week-long shutdowns.
The days of choosing between “fast” and “affordable” are over. With PE Pipeline Specialists’ new branch saddle stock setup, you get both – plus the peace of mind that comes with working with true pipeline specialists.
