The McElroy 250 was designed in response to international metric pipe needs. The 250 fusion machines now come in multiple model configurations to assure your metric pipe fusion needs are covered. They will butt fuse pipe sizes from 63mm to 250mm (2" IPS to 8" DIPS).

The Rolling 250 is based on the No.28 which has been

the industry standard for over 30 years. The TracStar

250 offers a self-contained, self-propelled track mounted vehicle that can handle grades up to 30%. It is the number one choice on the job site for its ease of maneuverability

and productivity gains. The PitBull 250 is used for special applications where the wheeled or tracked vehicle is not needed.

The latest upgrade to the TracStar 250 is an option

that allows automated control and monitoring over the heat, soak, fuse, and cool cycles. The Automated

TracStar 250 guides the operator through a step by step

procedure for fusing pipe. It has a built-in data logging feature that keeps a record

of each fusion joint, which allows you to verify joint

integrity.

All units incorporate the

interchangeable McElroy 250 four jaw carriage,

which can be easily

removed for in-ditch fusion. Example of Saddle Fusion

For tight installations the outer fixed jaw and skid can be removed from the carriage converting it to a 3 jaw carriage for an even more compact fusion unit. Several of these units offer saddle fusion capability in the form of a Combination Unit (CU) that allows fusion up to 250mm (8" DIPS) branch

saddles onto any size main.
