1LC
½» CTS – 1″ IPS (16mm – 34mm)
The 1LC is the best substitute for the Mini-Mc. You will notice a more predictable form of operating without loosing any of the numerous qualities the 2LC has. Like most of our welding machines, the 1LC has a heater, which will allow you to put the heater on the guide rods of the piece itself.

MANUAL
JUST ONE OPERATOR: THE EASIEST WAY FOR FUSION WELDING
Manual fusion machines give you all the muscle needed to do precise fusions on the hardest conditions all day long. Resistant and trustworthy, this fusion welding machines are compact, lightweight and only precise of one operator to be handled. Our precise engineering machines provide a total integrity with a really low maintenance.
BEST QUALITY
& CONSISTENCY
UNIFORM SUPPLY OF FOCES THANKS TO THE CENTERLINE GUIDANCE
All McElroy Machines have a Centerline Guidance a patented technology which creates an equal distribution of forces. This technology ensures that the center lines of the clamping jaws of the tubes are located in the same plane as the pipeline itself. As a result, we will obtain a high quality union provided by the equal force that is distributed by the center of the diameter of the tube during the fusion.
PLASTIC PIPE WELDING
HAS SEVERAL MACHINE OPTIONS
BUTT FUSION CHOICES FOR ½» CTS TO 6″ DIPS PIPE
In Plastic Pipe Welding we have a wide variety of small and light machines for butt fusion tubes ranging from 1/2 «CTS to 6» DIPS (16mm to 180mm). With only one machine you can weld tubes of all sizes, since all our individual machines cover the entire range of existing pipe diameters.
FUSIONS AND
WORKS
MACHINES DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR A GOOD EASE OF USE
Our machines are so light and compact that you will not have any problem using them wherever you want. On the ground or inside the trench, they will always yield the most. All our machines are coated with hardened aluminum at the surface, which provides them with an extra resistance to the most adverse conditions and the most extreme climates. For manual fusion, our machines have a narrow clamp that will help you align the pipes when welding.
LEADERS OF THE
PLASTIC PIPE WELDING INDUSTRY
MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE ALWAYS GUARANTEED
All Plastic Pipe Welding machines and equipment are specifically designed to withstand the most adverse conditions and climates. We guarantee that our machines will last for years. But if that were not enough for you, all our machines come with the maximum warranty period possible in the field of plastic welding, 5 years warranty.
