A234 WPB Elbow Carbon Steel

Steel pipe cap is usually welded onto end of pipe that blcok off the piping line system, it has same funtion with plug and blind flange. It is available in material of carbon steel, stainless steel and alloy steel.

Branches of tees have two types:Equal tee and Reducing tee.These two types tees have same functions,but reducing tee has one more function:it can reduce the flow of the gas or fluids.Butt welded fittings are the most used fittings in many applications because the size range of the BW fittings is big.

A pipe tee isuaually used in different industries,petroleum, natural gas, chemical, water and electricity, building and boiler industries.What’s the advantage ,how to choose a suitable tee ?

When short radius elbows are used, the maximum working pressure should not exceed 0.8 times of long radius elbows of the same specification Miter elbows are usually used for large-size pipes with moderate conditions in low pressure (design pressure s2.0mpa), water and similar fluid media

It is used for main pipe string accessories, solvent welding accessories, side outlet and conflicting soluble welding accessories. Such fittings are important because they meet two needs, that is, to connect or separate liquid streams. They are widely used in positive and vacuum applications.

BW elbow is popular because of the strong and permanent connection.The anti corrosion function of carbon steel and alloy steel is not as good as stainless steel,so coated pipes and fittings have paint or oil to protect the fittings during sea transportion.

Specificationo and usage of a 90degree BW elbow.

There are two types of 90 deg elbows:LR (long radius),SR (short radius).45 deg eblows are also have wide applications,be attention,45 deg elbow only have LR type.Butt welded pipe fittings have the most large used range as it can be 1/2″ – 80″.

Concentric reducer’s dimnesions and its usage and advantage

Equal butt weld elbow is used to change the direction of the flow in piping system.SCH 80 is a commonly used wall thickness for butt welded fittings,the other commonly used wall thickness is SCH 40.

The two ends of concentric reducer are designed with large diameter and small diameter, and the pipe is connected through conical transition section on the same axis.

Elbow is a pipe fitting that changes the direction of piping. According to the Angle, there are 45° and 90°180° three most commonly used. Elbow material can be divided into carbon steel, alloy steel and stainless-steel.

BW cap is used to close the pipe system,the function is similar to plug.A234 WPB is a commonly used grade for carbon steel in American Standard.SCH 40S is represents a wall thickness of butt welded fittings.The commonly used wall thicknesses for BW fittings are SCH 40,SCH 80.

Large Diameter Concentric Reducer is belong to butt welded fittings because BW fittings size range is 1/2″-80″ while the forged fittings only have 1/8″-4″.ASTM A234 WPB is represents to carbon steel pipe fittings in American Standard.

These concentric reducers are available in the seamless and welded type of construction. Concentric reducer is used to join pipe sections or tube sections on the same axis. It is cone-shaped, and is used when there is a shift in diameter between pipes. A pipe reducer is available in various specifications, such as a single diameter change and also in a multiple diameter change.

ASME B16.9 tee is a butt welded tee .ASME B16.9 is American Standard for BW fittings.Carbon steel fittings are always been chosen because of the great functions and affordable price.

It is used to handle any high or low weight fluid flow through the tee.Reducing tee is a kind of pipe fitting whose branch size is smaller than the size of pipeline parts. It is used for main pipe string accessories, solvent welding accessories, side outlet and conflicting soluble welding accessories. Such fittings are important because they meet two needs, that is, to connect or separate liquid streams. They are widely used in positive and vacuum applications.

Carbon steel elbow is the most used material in elbows.Carbon steel fittings are used in many applications because of its great excellent functions.ASME B16.9 is represents the American Standard of butt fittings.The end of Butt welded fittings are connected to the pipe system by butt welding.

A Reducing Tee is a T-shaped pipe fitting with two outlets that cut at 90 degrees to the main line. These tees are available with a combination of diverse outlet sizes. In this, the branch port size is smaller than the other ports of the run.

ASTM A234 specification has many grades, such as WPB, WPC, WP5, WP9 WP11, WP12, WP22, WP91 and so on.
In these standard Grade WPB is the most common material used for medium and high temperature pipelines. W means weldable, P means pressure, B is grade b, refer to the minimum yield strength.

Elbow is divided into carbon steel, cast steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, copper, aluminum alloy, plastic, argon, PPC, etc. Its function is to change the direction of the fluid by 90 degrees, so it is also called vertical elbow.

90 degree steel pipe elbow functioned to change fluid direction by 90 degree, so also named as vertical elbow. It is the common degree in all the pipeline systems and used most in all different degree of elbows

ASME B16.9 cross is a pipe fitting used to connect four pipes together, and the connection is achieved by welding. It plays a role in diversion or confluence in the pipeline system and is an important connector in the pipeline layout.

ASME B16.9 butt welded fittings are American Standard BW fittings.COC Reducer means concentric reducer,BW reducers can be concentric (COC) reducer and eccentric (ECC) reducer.These reducers have same functions,the only difference is the internal structure.

The function of butt weld elbow is to change direction or flow in a piping system. There are the 45°, 90° and 180° .
According to the material, it can be divided into carbon steel, alloy steel and stainless-steel.
According to its radius of curvature, there are long radius  and short radius butt weld elbow.

BW equal tee is always used in piping system to branch the pipes.ASME B16.9 Pipe Fittings are butt welded fittings in American Standard.Pipe tees can be equal tee and reducing tee.These tees have same functions,the only difference is reducing tee can reduce the flow in piping system.
