However, as it is necessary to install a bypass hose and shut off the gas when performing cut pipe branching, a large area is excavated, which increases the workload and time required. Meanwhile, expanded diameter branching has a limited range of application. Therefore, the Equal-Diameter Branching Method for PE pipe that has no limitations on its application range and can be executed more quickly and at less cost than conventional methods has been developed ER -
