A Poly Welder joins polyethylene pipelines using specialised heating and pressure equipment for water, gas, and mineral transport. You might work on a remote mine site, a civil infrastructure project, or a metropolitan utility network. Poly Welders focus on creating high-integrity, leak-proof joints through butt fusion and electrofusion techniques. You’ll prepare pipe surfaces, operate hydraulic welding machinery, and document weld data to ensure all installations meet strict Australian standards and safety regulations.
Poly Welders play a critical role in maintaining Australia’s essential infrastructure. You’ll need to be technically minded and physically fit, with a high level of attention to detail and safety. You’ll liaise with project engineers and site supervisors to ensure pipeline integrity and deliver durable solutions for complex fluid management systems.
