4 Faction Fusion The Faction Saddle Story Developed out of necessity by a leader in the trenchless industry Rob Morrow 20 years of pipe bursting and HDPE experience with Mocon Corp. Mocon s focus doing what most thought to be unachievable via pipe bursting Double and triple upsizing Working in zero access area s easements Market Innovators for pipe bursting and installation methods The Goal develop a fused sanitary sewer Wye and Tee for HDPE pipe that would provide adaptable configurations like PVC/Clay Providing the most desired sanitary sewer connection for the HDPE client The technology uses the physical properties of HDPE pipe instead of assisting technology to facilitate a fused connection The technology is in the fusion equipment, the method and IP not the fitting Results in a leak free, root free, gasketless sewer system from manhole to manhole and to the utility/resident transition Available, reliable, tested and verified solution at the point and time of execution
