ASME B16.11 Stainless Steel Socket Weld Coupling

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.

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).

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.

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 45 deg lateral tees are belong to pipe tees,but is a special type of pipe tees.These lateral tees could change the direction in 45 degree of the pipes.

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.

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.

ASTM A106 lateral tee is a carbon steel pipe fitting which plays an important role in pipe systems.Class 3000 pipe fittings are very popular because the pressure can be manufacture in both THD fittings and SW fittings.

Socket welded elbow can socket with pipes and welded on pipes.SW fittings are belong to forged fittings,the other type of forged fitting is threaded fittings.Forged fittings are high pressure fittings used in many applications.

SW (socket weld) elbow is high pressure forged fitting which can used in many industries ‘ pipe systems.SW elbows have 90 deg and 45 deg.SW elbows have pressures: 3000LB,6000LB,9000LB.SS304 fittings are always used in chemical industries because of the excellent corrosion resistance.

A Socket Weld Fittings is a pipe attachment detail in which a pipe is inserted into a recessed area of a Valve, fitting or flange. Once correctly inserted, fillet type sealing welds are applied to join the pipe to the fitting.

It is usually welded directly to the pipeline to form a branch connection. Couplings do not normally allow disconnection of shafts during operation, however there are torque-limiting couplings which can slip or disconnect when some torque limit is exceeded.

There are two types of tees:Equal Tee and Reducing Tee.Stainless steel pipe fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

Stainless steel sockolet is belong to forged pipe fittings,the most used pressure is Class3000.In addition,there are also class6000,class9000 for the stainless steel sockolet.

A105N class 3000 socket weld elbow is belong to ASME B16.11 forged fitting.These elbows can be 45 deg and 90 deg,and they can also be straight or reducing types.

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.

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.

Class 3000 SW tee is a commonly used socket weld fitting.There are many pressures for SW fittings:3000,6000,9000.Stainless steel pipe fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

SW tee can socketed with the pipes and welding with the pipes.ASME B16.11 fittings are forged fittings according to American Standard.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.

How Socket Welding Works and Classification of Socket Weld Coupling

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

Class 3000 SW coupling can manufactured as full coupling and half coupling.Stainless steel pipe fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.Socket weld fittings can be CL3000,CL6000 and CL9000.

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.
