ASME B16.9 Cross Pipe Fittings

Butt Weld Fittings include elbows, tees, cross, caps and reduces. These fittings are the most common type of welded pipe fitting and are specified by nominal pipe size and pipe schedule. Buttweld fittings are manufacture by seamless or welded pipe and are formed to get the shape of elbows, tees and cross etc.

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.

24IN carbon steel BW elbows are large dimension fittings,ASME B16.9 is represents butt welded fittings in American Standard.Carbon steel fittings are used in many applications because of its great excellent functions.

Pipe crossing is used where four pipes intersect. The cross pipe may have one inlet and three outlets, or three inlets and one outlet. The diameter of the outlet and inlet can be the same or different.

SS 304/304L elbow is stainless steel pipe fitting.304/604L is the most commonly used grade of stainless steel in American Standard.Elbows can made as 90 deg and 45 deg.Among these,90 degree elbows can be LR and SR while 45 degree elbows only have LR type.

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.

2”90°stainless steel elbow is a commonly used pipe fitting in the pipeline system. It is mainly used to change the direction of the pipeline, make the pipeline turn 90°, and connect two pipes with the same or different nominal diameters.

A equal tee’s usage,dimension and features.

Compared to 90 degree elbow, 45 degree elbow produces less friction, and with the lower pressure. 45 degree elbow is widely used in chemical industry, food, water supply facilities, electronic industry, chemical pipeline, horticulture, agricultural production, solar equipment pipeline, air conditioning pipeline and other fields.

180 deg BW elbow can change the direction of fluids or gas in 1800 degree.Butt welded elbows can also be 90 deg and 45 deg.90 deg elbow and 45 deg elbow are more commonly used than 180 deg elbow.You could find the surmmary ” 45 degree elbow VS 90 degree elbow”.

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.

A 90 degree bend is a pipe fitting that changes the direction of the pipe by 90 degrees, and its shape is usually a curved structure that is a quarter round.

ASME B 16.9 tee is BW (butt welded) tee belong to butt welded fittings.These tees can bu equal type or reducing type.Normal tees can change the direction of the pipe system of 90 deg.And tees also have lateral tees to change the direction of 45 deg.

Pipe tees have two types: Equal Tee and Reducing Tee.These tees have similar functions but reducing tee have one more function,reducing tees can reduce the flow in the pipe system.Shanghai Zhucheng is an excellent pipe fittings manufacturer who supplys high quality fittings and flanges for years.

Stainless steel tee has two types:Equal Tee and Redcuing Tee.These two types of tees have same functions,the only difference can reduce the flow in the piping system.Stainless steel pipe fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

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.

45 deg elbow has three types:BW,SW,THD.Among these,The commonly used elbows can be 45 deg and 90 deg.BW (butt welded) 90 degree elbows have LR (long radius) and SR (short radius) while 45 degree elbows only have LR type.

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.

These types of tube fittings like male elbows and female elbows have been specifically designed for use on instrumentation, process and control systems and equipment employed in chemical, petroleum, fluid power, electronic and pulp and paper plants.

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

The elbow radius mean curvature radius. If the radius is the same as pipe diameter, it called short radius elbow, also called SR elbow, normally for low pressure and low speed pipelines. If the radius is larger than pipe diameter, R ≥ 1.5 Diameter, then we call it a long radius elbow (LR Elbow), applied for high pressure and high flow rate pipelines.

The ANSI B16.9 45 Degree Elbow refers to a 45-degree elbow manufactured according to the ANSI B16.9 standard.

90 deg elbow is the most chosen degree in elbows.There are also 45 deg and 180 deg elbows.Elbows can be Equal Elbow and Reducing Elbow to satisfy different demands.ASTM A234 WPB is a material grade in American Standard repersents carbon steel butt welded fittings.

ASTM A182 F304 pipe fittings are inculding many fittings,among these,stainless butt welded elbows are the most common used fittings.For 90 deg elbows,there are two types :LR (Long Radius) and SR (Short Radius).Stainless steel pipe fittings are popular because of the superior functions.

Carbon BW tee is wide used in many applications because welded connection can provide permanent connection.Schedule XS is wall thickness of this tee in the picture.In addition,the commonly used wall thicknesses:SCH40, SCH80.

ASME B16.9 flanged nipples have a flange structure at one end. This flange is usually for easy connection with other flanges or pipe fittings.

BW elbow can welded with pipes to achieve strong and permanent connection.ASTM A234 WPB pipe fittings are the most popular carbon steel fittings.There is also has A234 WPC for carbon steel fittings.
