ASTM A403 WP304 Concentric Reducer

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

BW (butt welded）reducer has two types:concentric reducer and eccentric reducer.As it is butt welded fitting,its size can be 1/2″ – 80″,so butt welded fittings can be used in many applications.Stainless steel fittings are more expensive but the functions are also better than others.

90° Steel Pipe Elbow is the most commonly used elbow type in pipe system with the function to change the direction of fluid in 90 degree. It connects pipes with same or different diameter.

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.

ASME B 16.9 lateral tee is one special type of BW tees.It has similar functions to the normal tee,the only difference is the lareral tee can change the direction in 45 degree while the normal one changes in 90 degree.

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.

S31254 Elbow is a pipe fitting used in pipeline systems, and its main function is to change the flow direction of the fluid in the pipeline. Common bending angles are 45°, 90° and 180°, etc.

DN1200 BW elbow is belong to large dimension fittings,these fittings always be butt welded fittings because of the large size.Butt welded fittings used welded type to connect with the pipes to achieve strong and permanent connection.

The long radius is used most commonly, and it is also the default radius. When it is the place with the high pressure or the high flow rate, the long radius elbow is usually used. If the resistance requirements of the solid transmission pipeline are strict, the larger radius elbows will be used.

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.

BW 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 applications for eccentric 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).

These concentric reducers are available in the seamless and welded type of construction. Concentric reducer is used to join pipe sections or tube sections on the same axis. It is cone-shaped, and is used when there is a shift in diameter between pipes. A pipe reducer is available in various specifications, such as a single diameter change and also in a multiple diameter change.

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.

Concentric reducer’s dimnesions and its usage and advantage

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.

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.

90 deg elbow is always used in piping systems.The other degree of elbows is 45 deg elbow.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.A403 WP316L is a grade for stainless steel in American Standard.

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.

ASME B16.9 45 degree LR elbow is a pipe connector with a bending angle of 45 degrees. The long diameter means that the bending radius of the elbow is relatively large. It consists of a bending part and interfaces at both ends. The size of the interface matches the outer diameter of the connected pipe to ensure a sealed connection.

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

A234 WPB BW tee is a commonly used pipe fitting to transport flow in piping system.There are two tpyes of tees:Equal Tee and Reducing Tee.SCH 80 is a commonly used wall thickness for butt welded fittings,the other commonly used wall thickness is SCH 40.

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.

Concentric reducer is used to join pipe sections or tube sections on the same axis. It is cone-shaped, and is used when there is a shift in diameter between pipes. A pipe reducer is available in various specifications, such as a single diameter change and also in a multiple diameter change.

Equal butt weld elbow is used to change the direction of the flow in piping system.SCH 80 is a commonly used wall thickness for butt welded fittings,the other commonly used wall thickness is SCH 40.

Concentric reducers provide an in-line conical transition between pressurized pipes of different diameters. It is cone-shaped, and is used when there is a shift in diameter between pipes. 

A182 F316 reducer is a stainless steel butt welded fitting which can used in some corrosive environments because of the high corrosion resistance of stainless steel.BW reducers can be concentric (COC) reducer and eccentric (ECC) reducer.There are many differences between the two types of reducers,you could find the summary “Concentric VS Eccentric” in the content below.
