ASTM 234WPB Butt Weld Long Radius 45DEG Elbow

ASME B16.9 cross is a pipe fitting used to connect four pipes together, and the connection is achieved by welding. It plays a role in diversion or confluence in the pipeline system and is an important connector in the pipeline layout.

A403 WP304  eccentric reducer is a pipe fitting used to connect pipes of different diameters, and the central axes do not overlap, which means there is an eccentricity. The eccentric reducer has two ends, one with a larger diameter and the other with a smaller diameter.

Take carbon steel buttweld fittings into a bath of molten zinc. That would get more zinc and make the price is high. We surfaced carbon steel forged fittings with electrogalvanizing because it is pretty and low cost.

According to its radius of curvature, it can be divided into long radius elbow and short radius elbow. Long radius elbow means that its radius of curvature is equal to 1.5 times the outer diameter of the pipe, that is, r = 1.5D. Short radius elbow means that its radius of curvature is equal to the outer diameter of the pipe, that is, r = 1.0d.

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.

Pipe elbows have three types:THD (threaded),SW (socket weld),BW (butt welded).These elbows used different connections to connect with the pipes in piping system.Stainless steel fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel fittings can used over 50 years.

Stainless 90 deg elbow has better anti-corrosive function than other material elbows.90 degree elbow can be two types: LR (long radius) and SR (short radius).Elbows can also be 45 degree,but 45 deg elbow only has LR type.

ASME B16.9 tee is an American Standard butt welded fitting.BW tees can be two types:Equal Tees and Redcing Tees.These tees have similar functions but reducing tees can reduce the flow while equal tees can not.You could find the summary “Equal VS Reducing” in the content below.

Difference between a pipe elbow and a pipe bend is as follows:

Steel pipe elbow is a key parts in a piping system for to change the fluid flow direction. It is used to connect two pipes with same or different nominal diameters, and to make the pipe turn to a certain direction of 45 degree or 90 degree.

What is a steel pipe tee and what about its standard

Butt welded reducers can be concentric (COC) reducer and eccentric (ECC) reducer.These reducers have same functions,the only difference is the internal structure.There are the BW fittings specifications in the content below.

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

An equal tee, otherwise called straight tee, means the branch diameter of this tee is same with the main pipe (Run pipe) diameter of this tee.
A pipe tee is defined “equal” when the bore size at the run and branch sides have the same diameter. An equal tee is, therefore, used to connect two pipes of the same nominal diameter.

Butt welded elbow is a commonly used pipe fitting,it can divided as two types:90 deg and 45 deg.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.These are Shanghai Zhucheng Pipe Fittings Manufacturing Co Ltd’s steel pipe fittings packages to ensure that the products are not damaged during transportation.

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).

Steel pipe tee has three branches that can change fluid direction. It has T-shaped or Y-shaped, and include Equal Tee and Reducing Tee (Reducer Tee). Steel tee is widely used in pipe networks for convey liquids and gases.

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.

Long radius elbow refers to the pipe outer diameter with radius of curvature equal to 1.5 times, i.e R = 1.5D. Its function is to change the direction of the fluid by 90 degrees, so it is also called vertical elbow.

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.

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”.

Butt weld fittings are manufacture by seamless or welded pipe. For pipe fittings manufacturers, the forming process of welded pipe and seamless pipe is basically same. Butt welded fittings can be divided into carbon steel butt welded fittings and stainless-steel butt-welded fittings

SS 304/316 pipe tees are popular because these tees have excellent corrosion resistance.Tees can made for three types:BW (butt welded) tee,SW (socket weld) tee,THD (threaded) tee.Clients can choose different type of tees to satisfy different demands.ASME B 16.9 is represents butt welded fittings in American Standard.SW fittings and THD fittings are belong to forged fittings which marked as ASME B 16.11.

45 deg elbow is a type of elbows,there are also 90 deg elbows and 180 deg elbows.These elbows have similar functions,the main difference is the degree.Elbows can be BW,SW and THD to chosen for different applications.Shanghai Zhucheng is a quality pipe fittings supplier from China.
