A sleeve member (4) formed from a pipe length by expansion is placed over a mandrel onto which are wound the spaced turns (7) of a resistance heating wire (6). By heating sleeve member (4) the latter is shrunk onto the turns (7). By electrically producing heat in wire (6) material flows around the expanding turns (7) and embed the latter completely in sleeve member (4), projecting material portions (8, 9) being formed in the vicinity of turns (7). Thus, a protection against electric shock hazard is obtained for turns (7) and after-working is made unnecessary for the standing back edge portions of inner wall (5) which deform inwards during manufacture.

An electric welding muff for joining thermoplastic line elements, comprising a welding sleeve formed of a length of thermoplastic pipe having opposite axial ends and having an inner wall with an annular projection extending inwardly therefrom, said annular projection being spaced axially from said axial ends of said sleeve such that said sleeve has a greater internal diameter adjacent said axial ends than along said annular projection; and an electrical resistance heating wire arranged in a plurality of turns, said turns being entirely embedded in said annular projection.
