Socket Weld Coupling material can be divided into carbon steel, alloy steel and stainless-steel, and the pressure ratings is Class 3000, 6000, or 9000.

Socket welded tee are generally suitable for pipes with a nominal diameter of NPS 2 or less.

90 deg socket weld elbows are belong to ASME B16.11 stainless steel pipe fittings.SW elbows have two types:90 DEG and 45 DEG.SW pipe fittings including:Elbow, Tee, Cross, Coupling, Union, Cap, Reducing Insert, Sockolet.Three pressures for customers to choose:3000LB,6000LB,9000LB.

A182 SS304L sockolet is a pipe stainless steel pipe fitting.Stainless steel fittings are popular because of the great anti-corrosive function.Shanghai Zhucheng is an excellent high quality pipe fittings supplier in China.

5IN socket welded coupling is a commonly used forged fitting in piping systems.ASME B16.11 pipe fittings are forged pipe fittings including SW fittings and THD fittings.Socket welded coupling can socketed with the pipes and then welded on pipes.

Threaded fittings are available in pressure ratings Class 2000, 3000, and 6000; Socket welding fittings are available in pressure ratings Class 3000, 6000, and 9000. Generally, both fittings size range is 1/8″- 4″or DN6-DN100.

The main purpose of using pipe caps is to waterproof the connections. They are also used to close the the ends of hydraulic or pneumatic pipes and tubes. The use of Forged End Pipe Caps is common in many industries such as oil and gas industries, chemical industries and water supply lines.

Socket weld cross is a pipe fitting used to transport flow in the piping system.SW fittings are belong to forged steel pipe fittings,the other type of forged fitting is threaded fittings.Forged fittings are high pressure fittings used in many applications.

SW elbow is used to socket with the end of pipe and welding on it.Socket weld elbow is belong to forged fittings which are used as high pressure fittings,SW fittings can be 2000lb,3000lb,6000lb.

SW full coupling is used to connect two pipes.Couplings can be full coupling and half coupling.ASME B16.11 pipe fittings are forged fittings including SW fittings and THD fittings.Socket weld fittings have many pressures:CL3000,CL6000,CL9000.

The socket weld elbow is resistance corrosion/pitting/oxidation/stress corrosion cracking and crevice corrosion

What is a SOCKET WELD-90 DEGREE ELBOW and what about its specification and advantages.

Forged socket weld elbow is available in 90 degree and 45 degree that used to connect the ASME pipe to fittings or valves by fillet seal welding. It has varieties of features such as reliability, durability and dimensional precision.

Stainless steel SW elbow used socket connection with pipes and then welded on the pipes.ASTM A182 F304 is a commonly used grade for stainless steel fittings.Stainless steel pipe fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

Available at90 degree and 45-degree angles, these fittings allow pipe runs to change direction. SW elbows can be either short radius or long radius designs as required.

What is a sockolet and what about its dimension chart.

Socket weld elbow (SW elbow) has 45 degree and 90 degree types, manufactured in forging processes and also has long radius (LR with 1.5 X OD) and short radius (SR with 1 X 0D) model, it has been a common socket weld fittings that used in the pipelines for changing the fluid directions.

What is a Socket weld Uninon,what about its speicification and advantage

Flush Bushing: Flush bushing are used in piping systems. They are installed in the pipe to reduce the size of the pipe. Forged bushing is ideal for use with water and oil in chemical, petrochemical, pulp, paper, shipbuilding, waste incineration, and semiconductor industry applications.

What is a socket weld elbow and why do socket welders need a gap?

Equal  Elbow

Equal elbow is an elbow with the same diameter at both ends, which is characterized in that the pipeline connecting the two necks belongs to the same specification.

Reducing  Elbow

Reducing elbows connect two pipes of different diameters to reduce the diameter when the pipe rotates.

SW tees have two types:Equal and Reducing.SW fittings have same ranges of size(1/8”-4”) and pressures(2000lb,3000lb,6000lb,9000lb).Class 3000 is the most common used among these pressures.Class 3000 can be labeled as 3M,where M means 1000,class 3000 fittings can withstand up to 3000 PSI.
