ASME B16.9 Butt Weld Carbon Steel Pipe Elbow

Butt welded lateral tee is a special type of BW tees.It is different from the normal tees as the lateral tee can change the direction of the pipe system in 45 degree.Carbon steel fittings are the most used fittings as carbon steel material has great functions and affordable price.

Reducer can divided as concentric reducer and eccentric reducer.These reducer have same functions in pipe system,the only diffierence is the internal structure. Carbon steel fittings are used in many applications because of its great excellent functions.

Carbon steel pipe fittings are used in many applications because of its great excellent functions.Carbon steel pipe fittings can manufactured as THD (threaded) fittings,SW (socket weld) fittings and (BW) butt welded fittings.The specifications are in the content below.

Radius of Long Radius (LR) Elbows is 1.5 times the pipe diameter. Radius of Carbon Steel Short Radius Elbow is 1.0 times the pipe diameter. Carbon Steel Seamless Elbow are in demand for use between two lengths of pipe or tube allowing a change of direction, usually these elbows distinguished by connection ends.

BW ELBOW are installed between different lengths pipe or tubing. Its function is to change the direction of the fluid by 90 degrees, so it is also called vertical elbow.

Tee welding joints are formed when two pieces intersect at a 90° angle. This results in the edges coming together in the center of a plate or component in a ‘T’ shape. Tee joints are considered to be a type of fillet weld, and they can also be formed when a tube or pipe is welded onto a base plate.

Elbow is a fitting device which is bent in such a way to produce 90 degree change in the direction of flow of the content in the pipe.

Concentric reducer’s dimnesions and its usage and advantage

BW 90 deg elbow is the most used type of elbows in many industries.Schedule 80 is represents the wall thickness of the butt welded fittings.It is a commonly used wall thickness.another wall thickness is SCH 40.

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

Pipe tees can be two types:Reducing Tee and Equal Tee.Both types of tees can branch the pipes in the piping systems.Schedule 40 is a wall thickness of the butt welded fittings,the commonly used schedules are SCH 40,SCH 80.

Stinless steel pipe is always used in many corrosive environments because of the excellent anti-corrosive function,so that the pipes can used for longer years than other materials’ pipes.Shanghai Zhucheng is a superior steel pipe supplier who supplys high quality pipes for years.

Butt weld elbow is a steel elbow formed by hot pressing or forging. Its connection form is to directly weld the elbow and steel pipe. Butt welded elbows have beveled ends to allow for ease of welding. This bevel allows for full penetration weld in most of the cases. Butt welded elbows are mainly used for elbow with higher pressure and temperature.

Stainless steel pipe fittings including Tee,Cross, Elbow, Reducer, Coupling, Nipple, Plug & Cap,Union.They can be connected with pipes by welding, socket and thread.

Butt weld fittings would also be referred to as welded pipe fittings. When these would be used in stainless steel and carbon steel, they would be able to offer certain advantages as compared to socket weld and threaded fittings. Whereas socket weld would only be available up to a specific size, you would find butt weld fittings to be available in sizes starting 1/2 inch to 72 inch.

It can be axially shifted and externally reconfigured to offer more efficient reducer connection. Concentric reducers facilitate the delivery of mud and abrasive fluids and are suitable for corrosive operations and where different ratings and wear protection are required between flanges.

ASTM A234 WPB pipe fittings are have a large size:1/2″-80″.32 in carbon steel butt welded elbow is a common used size in large size of BW elbows.

There are 45 ° elbows and 90 ° elbows in common use. Those with a bending radius of about 1.0 times the outer diameter of the pipe are called short radius elbows; The long radius elbow is about 1.5 times the outer diameter of the pipe

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.

Reducing tee is used to change the direction and reduce the flow of the fluids or gas.Butt welded pipe fittings can weld with the pipes so that can anti leakage effectively.Tees have two types:Equal Tee and Reducing Tee.The commonly used wall thicknesses for butt welded fittings are SCH STD,SCH 80,SCH 160.

In the layout of the pipeline system, long radius elbows should generally be used for connection, and short radius elbows are usually used in places where the installation position of the pipeline system is compact or to reduce costs

The function of a 45 degree elbow is the same as a 90 degree elbow, but the measurement of dimensions is different to that of the 90 degree elbow.Compared to 90 degree elbow, 45 degree elbow produces less friction, and with the lower pressure.

Carbon steel butt welding 90 degree elbow is a connector specially designed for use in piping systems. Its main function is to create a 90 degree turn in the pipe so that the fluid can flow along a predetermined path.

LR 90 degree steel pipe elbow are installed between different lengths pipe or tubing. It helps to change direction at 90 degree, and is commonly used to connect hoses to pumps, deck drains and valve.

Carbon steel tee is a commonly used tpye of tees.This is butt welded (BW) carbon steel tee in the picture.it can welded with pipes to achieve permanent connection.Equal tee only can change the direction of the pipes while reducing tee can also reduce the flow of the fluids or gas.

Steel pipe elbow is an important parts in plumbing pipeline systems and used to change the fluid directions. It ranges in different types as per body material there are stainless steel elbow, carbon steel elbow, and alloy steel;

It helps to change direction at 90 degree, and is commonly used to connect hoses to pumps, deck drains and valve.SR 90 degree elbow is the same as the pipe elbow mentioned above, but the diameter is shorter. Therefore, this kind of steel elbow is often used when space is not enough.A 90 degree elbow attaches readily to plastic, copper, cast iron, steel and lead. It can also attach to rubber with stainless steel clamps. Available in many materials like silicon, rubber compounds, galvanized steel etc.

What is a 90 DEGREE LR ELBOW and what about its specification and advantages.

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.
