Butt Weld Reducer

Butt welded cross is pipe fitting used to transport the flow in piping systems.BW cross can connect four pipes vertically with welded connection.Cross can be two types:Equal and Reducing.These crosses have similar functions,but reducing tees can reduce the flow while equal tees can not.

Butt welding reducers are tubular pipe fittings with different diameters at both ends, which are connected to the pipeline by butt welding. It is usually conical, with a larger diameter at one end and a smaller diameter at the other end, and is used to achieve a smooth transition between pipelines of different diameters.

Concentric reducer in a pipe system, its making process and its difference between a eccentric reducer.

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).

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.

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.

Whatis the difference between concentric and eccentric reducers?

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.

BW (butt welded) reducer can be concentric (COC) reducer and eccentric (EEC) reducer.Among these two types,concentric reducer is more commonly used.The materical of reducer can be carbon steel,alloy steel and stainless steel.Clients can choose different material as their demands.

This kind of elbow is classified by angle, and 45 degree elbow and 180 elbow is also very popular. And steel pipe elbow is also available in 60 degree, 30 degree and other special angle according to practical needs.

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.

Concentric reducer consists of the symmetrical and conical shaped fittings that enlarge or reduce the diameter equally about the center line.

There are two types of tees:Equal Tee and Reducing Tee.Both types of tees can branches the pipes but reducing tees can also reduce the flow.Schedule 40 is a commonly used wall thickness in butt welded fittings.

Steel pipe bend is belong to butt welded fittings,bends have some similar usages as elbows.However,bends can be customized by clients to satisfy different demands.API 5L B is a grade of carbon steel material for pipes and bends.

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

classification,dimension of lateral tee,and its difference from a WYE.

The reducing tee has two outlets cut at 90 degrees with the main pipe, and the size of the branch pipe is smaller than the port of the pipeline. It is used for main pipe string accessories, solvent welding accessories, side outlet and conflicting soluble welding accessories

The length dimension of the reducer is almost equal to the average of the big bore and smaller bore pipe diameters. Concentric reducers are easy to transport mud and grinding fluid and are suitable for corrosive operations

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.

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 pipe tee isuaually used in different industries,petroleum, natural gas, chemical, water and electricity, building and boiler industries.What’s the advantage ,how to choose a suitable tee ?

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.

Stainless elbow is a popular used type of elbow becase the stainless steel has excellent an-ti corrosive function.Shanghai Zhucheng is an excellent butt welded fittings factory who supplys high quality pipe fittings and flanges for 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.

45° Pipe Elbow is also known as “45 bends or 45 ells”. The 45° pipe elbow is used to connect tubes at a 45° pipe angle. As the name suggests, this is a pipe fitting device which is bent in such a way to produce 45° change in the direction of flow of the fluid/gas in the pipe.

Specificationo and usage of a 90degree BW elbow.

BW elbow and reducer are both commonly used pipe fittings in piping systems.A234 WPB is the most used grade for carbon steel butt welded fittings.

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.
