ASTM A403 304L Stainless Steel CONCENTRIC REDUCER BW B 16.9

What is a CAP nipple and what about its specification and advantages.

Elbow could be ranged from direction angle, connection types, length and radius, material types. As we know, according to fluid direction of the pipelines, elbow can be divided into different degrees, such as 45 degree, 90 degree,180 degree, which are most common degrees. Also there has 60 degree and 120 degree, for some special pipelines.

Concentric reducer’s dimnesions and its usage and advantage

A234 WPB/WPC BW concentric reducers are carbon steel butt welded fittings,among these,A234 WPB is more chosen in many industries.BW reducers can be concentric (COC) reducer and eccentric (ECC) reducer.These reducers have same functions,the only difference is the internal structure.

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.

Carbon steel elbow has two degrees:90 deg and 45 deg.In real application,90 deg is more used type.90 deg elbow can be long radius (LR) and short radius (SR) while 45 deg elbow only has long radius (LR).

A234 WPB tee is a pipe fitting used in pipeline systems. It has three openings and can divide the fluid in one pipe to the other two pipes, or gather the fluid in two pipes into one pipe. Carbon steel tees can be divided into equal diameter tees and reducing tees.

 90 Degree Carbon steel elbow is a pipe fitting with a 90 degree bending angle. It connects two pipes and changes the direction of the pipes at right angles, ensuring that the fluid flows along a predetermined path in the pipe system.

SS400 90 DEG elbow is used to transport flow in piping system.Butt welded fittings used welded connection to connect with the pipes to achieve the strong and premanent connection.

It is used for main pipe string accessories, solvent welding accessories, side outlet and conflicting soluble welding accessories. Such fittings are important because they meet two needs, that is, to connect or separate liquid streams. They are widely used in positive and vacuum applications.

BW 90 degree elbow is formed by hot forming and connects steel pipes or other pipe fittings through butt welding process. Its function is to change the direction of the fluid by 90 degrees, so it is also called vertical elbow.

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.

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.

A 90 degree elbow attaches readily to plastic, copper, cast iron, steel and lead. It can also attach to rubber with stainless steel clamps. Elbow connectors can link pipes to avoid water leakage and air leakage between pipes.

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.

ASME B16.9 elbow means BW elbow.ASME B16.9 is an American Standard for Butt welded fittings,A234 WP22 is represnets BW Alloy pipe fittings. Elbows can be 90 deg and 45 deg to change the pipes in 90 degree or 45 degree.Sometimes the elbows can be 180 deg to satisfy the clinet’s demands.

The connection methods of elbow and pipe include: direct welding (the most common method), flange connection, hot melt connection, electric fusion connection, thread connection and socket connection

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.

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.

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.

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.

Lap joint stub end is belong to butt welded fittings,lap joint stub end is not usually used in many time.Lap joint stub end always be used with lap joint flange.Stainless steel pipe fittings are popular because stainless steel’s excellent performance in corrosion resistance.

According to fluid flow direction of the pipes, elbows can be divided into different degrees, such as 45 degree, 90 degree, 180 degree, which are most common elbows. Also there are 60 degree and 120 degree elbows for some special pipelines. This degree is just an representation of the angle by which the fluid flow is going to change after flowing through the said elbow.

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.

It is used to handle any high or low weight fluid flow through the tee.Reducing tee is a kind of pipe fitting whose branch size is smaller than the size of pipeline parts. It is used for main pipe string accessories, solvent welding accessories, side outlet and conflicting soluble welding accessories. Such fittings are important because they meet two needs, that is, to connect or separate liquid streams. They are widely used in positive and vacuum applications.

BW equal tees are the most used tees in the all types of tees.There are equal tee and reducing tee.Galvanized carbon steel pipe fittings have better corrosion resistance than carbon steel fittings.
