Alloy Steel A234 WP5 Butt Weld Reducer dimensions

Butt welded elbow,also called BW elbow,there are two types elbows:Reducing Elbow and Equal Elbow.both types elbows can change the fluids or gas in 45 deg or 90 deg,while reducing elbows also can reduce the flow in the piping system.Shanghai Zhucheng has experienced steel pipe fittings factory to supply high quality fittings.

A182 F316 reducer is a stainless steel butt welded fitting which can used in some corrosive environments because of the high corrosion resistance of stainless steel.BW reducers can be concentric (COC) reducer and eccentric (ECC) reducer.There are many differences between the two types of reducers,you could find the summary “Concentric VS Eccentric” in the content below.

BW (butt welded) reducer have two types:Eccentric Reducer and Cocentric Reducer.Reducer only has welded connection.However,swage nipple which belong to forged fittings has same function to reducer.

Spiral wound gasket (SWG) is a fitting used with flanges.ASME B16.20 is the American Standard for gasket.

Elbows are split into two groups which define the distance over which the flowing fluid change direction; the center line of one end to the opposite face. This is known as the “Center to Face” distance and is equivalent to the radius through which the elbow is bent.

Alloy steel butt-weld pipe caps are mainly used to close pipeline systems to ensure that the fluid in the pipeline will not leak.It is usually welded at the end of the pipeline to provide a reliable sealing effect.

BW elbow is the most used elbows in all the type of elbows.There are types of elbows:BW (butt welded),SW (socket welded) and THD (threaded).Alloy steel pipe fittings are popular because the material is similar to carbon steel and its material can satisfy different demands.

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.

According to its radius of curvature, there are long radius elbow and short radius elbow. Long radius elbow refers to its radius of curvature is equal to 1.5 times the outside diameter of the pipe, that is, R=1.5D; A short radius elbow means that its radius of curvature is equal to the outer diameter of the pipe, that is, R= 1.0d.(D is the diameter of the elbow, and R is the radius of curvature).

The long radius is used most commonly, and it is also the default radius. When it is the place with the high pressure or the high flow rate, the long radius elbow is usually used. If the resistance requirements of the solid transmission pipeline are strict, the larger radius elbows will be used.

What is the use of Weldolet?

Stainless elbow is a popular used type of elbow becase the stainless steel has excellent an-ti corrosive function.Shanghai Zhucheng is an excellent butt welded fittings factory who supplys high quality pipe fittings and flanges for years.

The radius of both the 45 degree and 90 Degree long and short elbow is the same however, the center to face dimension is not equivalent due to the smaller degree of bend.

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.

BW elbow types have BW (butt welded),SW (socket weld),THD (threaded).The butt welded elbow is the most used type.Elbows have two shapes:Equal and Reducing.Shanghai Zhucheng is a pipe fittings manufacturer who can supply 45 deg,90 deg and 180 deg elbows.

Fittings that change direction in a piping system are called elbows which available in 90 degree and 45 degree long radius elbow. Both of them has the center line at 1.5 x NPS from elbow end.

Concentric (COC) reducer is one type of BW reducer.The other type of reducer is Eccentric (ECC) Reducer.The different of COC Reducer and ECC Reducer is the internal structure.BW pipe fittings are popular because of the strong and permanent connection.

Butt welded tee can be equal type and reducing type.Both types can change the direction of the piping system in 90 deg.In addition,the reducing tees can reduce the flow of the fluids or gas.Shanghai Zhucheng is an excellent pipe fittings manufacturer from China who supply high quality fittings for years.

Reducing tee a one of the type of tees,the other type is equal tee.these two types tees have similar functions,but the reducing tees can reduce the flow.Shanghai Zhucheng is an excellent Pipe fittings manufacturer who supplys high quality fittings for many years.

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.

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.

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.

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 90 elbow is the most used degree,there is also 45 deg elbow to choose.These elbows have similar functions,the only difference is the 90 degree elbow can changes the direction in 90 deg while the 45 degree elbow can changes in 45deg.ASME B16.9 is American Standard of butt welded fittings.

BW elbows have the most wide used range in all types of elbows.Shanghai Zhucheng is an excellent supplier for pipe fittings,all the fittings made from carbon steel and alloy steel will have anti-rust paint,and stainless steel fittings will have anti-rust oil to protect the fittings in the sea transportation.
