The McElroy TracStar® 1200 brings larger pipe capability to its line of self-propelled, track-mounted fusion machines.

The TracStar 1200 is a self-contained machine, which features an on-board generator for powering the heater and facer, which is now positioned between the fixed jaws for easier pipe transfer. The carriage can be easily removed for in-ditch use. The engine is available with advanced emission control technology that meets the EPA's latest Tier 4 standards, without the need for diesel exhaust fluid (DEF). An Automated TracStar 1200 is available upon request.
