BW Carbon Steel Reducer SCH 160 Fittings

A Reducing Tee is a T-shaped pipe fitting with two outlets that cut at 90 degrees to the main line. These tees are available with a combination of diverse outlet sizes. In this, the branch port size is smaller than the other ports of the run.

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.

ASTM A182 F316 is a popular grade for stainless steel in American Standard.Stainless steel fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

BW tees and reducers are the most used pipe fittings in the piping system.Tees can branch the flow in piping systems.Carbon steel pipe fittings are popular as the great functions and affordable functions.

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.

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.

Concentric reducers provide an in-line conical transition between pressurized pipes of different diameters. It is used to connect pipe segments or pipe segments on the same axis.

SSAW steel pipe in the production process, we need to pay attention to a series of matters. Except for the following test items, according to the API standard and other relevant standards and the special requirements of some users, but also the need for steel, steel pipe and other tests Destructive tests, including physical and chemical properties of the raw materials into the plant sampling, visual inspection of 100% steel .

LR 90 degree steel pipe elbow are installed between different lengths pipe or tubing, It helps to change direction at 90 degree.

The pipes cannot appreciate because of what the external arrangement of the pipe reducer seems but the flow of the pipe is changed by the internal width conical transition arrangement. It can be axially shifted and externally reconfigured to offer more efficient reducer connection. 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.

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.

A234 WPB BW reducer has the most wide ragnge of applications in all types of butt welded reducer, because A234 WPB is the most used grade in carbon steel.Carbon steel pipe fittings are accepted in many projects because these fittings have great functions and reasonable price.

There are two types of 90 deg elbows:LR (long radius),SR (short radius).45 deg eblows are also have wide applications,be attention,45 deg elbow only have LR type.Butt welded pipe fittings have the most large used range as it can be 1/2″ – 80″.

BW reducers can be concentric (COC) reducer and eccentric (ECC) reducer.These reducers have same functions,the only difference is the internal structure.Stainless pipe fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

Concentric reducers are beneficial to use where different ratings and to wear protection is required in conveying between flanges or pipes. nd the pipe is connected through conical transition section on the same axis.

Butt welded fittings,can be abridged as BW fittings.Butt welded means the pipe fittings used welded connection to connect with pipes.BW fittings including Elbow, Tee, Cross, Bend, Reducer, Cap, Stub End.Carbon steel always be the material of these fittings as carbon steel has great functions and affordable price.

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.

Steel pipe bend is a butt welded fitting to transport fluids or gas.The degree of steel bend will be customize according to the client’s demend.Pipe bend and elbow have some similarity,you could find the summary “pipe bend VS elbow” below.

45 deg BW elbow can change the direction of fluids or gas by 45 deg,it only has LR (long radius) type while 90 deg butt welded elbow has both LR and SR(short radius) types.Carbon steel is the most used material in pipe fittings because it has great functions to satisfy many applications.

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

Concentric reducer is used to join pipe sections or tube sections on the same axis The length dimension of the reducer is almost equal to the average of the big bore and smaller bore pipe diameters.

Steel Reducing Tee: The branch diameter is smaller than the main line diameter. Tee reducer is usually described as NPS diameters in 4”x 4”x 3”, 4”is the main line pipe diameter, and 3”is the reducing branch

ASTM A234 specification has many grades, such as WPB, WPC, WP5, WP9 WP11, WP12, WP22, WP91 and so on.
In these standard Grade WPB is the most common material used for medium and high temperature pipelines. W means weldable, P means pressure, B is grade b, refer to the minimum yield strength.

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

The function of a 45 degree elbow is the same as a 90 degree elbow, but the measurement of dimensions is different to that of the 90 degree elbow.Compared to 90 degree elbow, 45 degree elbow produces less friction, and with the lower pressure.

‘The long radius elbow is the elbow which the radius of curvature of is 1.5 times the diameter of the pipe; if the radius of curvature is greater than 1.5 times, the long radius elbow will be called the bend. The short radius elbow means that the radius of curvature of the elbow equals the diameter of the pipe, or 1 time the diameter of the pipe in common words.
