BW Elbow Alloy Steel Pipe Fittings

Equal diameter tee, also known as straight tee, the branch diameter of the tee is the same as the pipe diameter of the tee. The three branches of tee have same diameters.

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.

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.

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.

24in equal tee is belong to large dimension fittings.SCH 40 is a commonly used wall thickness for butt welded fittings.Pipe tees can be equal tee and reducing tee.These tees have same functions,the only difference is reducing tee can reduce the flow in piping system.

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.

Concentric (COC) reducer is one type of BW reducer.The other type of reducer is Eccentric (ECC) Reducer.The different of COC Reducer and ECC Reducer is the internal structure.BW pipe fittings are popular because of the strong and permanent connection.

If the radius is the same as pipe diameter (Center-to-Face dimension of 1.0 X diameter ), it called Short Radius Elbow (SR elbow) used normally for low pressure and low speed pipelines or in tight areas where clearance is the main issue. If the radius is larger than pipe diameter (Center-to-Face dimension of 1.5 X diameter) then we call it a Long Radius Elbow (LR Elbow) used for high pressure and high flow rate pipelines.

Concentric reducer’s dimnesions and its usage and advantage

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.

Elbows are split into two groups which define the distance over which the flowing fluid change direction; the center line of one end to the opposite face. This is known as the “Center to Face” distance and is equivalent to the radius through which the elbow is bent.

Classify,specification of a BW 90 degree elbow

Concentric reducers will change kindly between the pump and piping， Concentric reducers are used to connect pipe segments or pipe segments on the same axis.

Steel pipe bend is belong to butt welded fittings.The bend radius R should greater than or equal to 3 times of the outside diameter.Bends could manufacture as the customize degree to meet the client’s demends.

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.

BW elbows are belong to butt welded fittings,wall thickness of BW fittings decided the pressure that the fittings can resistance.Wall thickness SCH 40 is a commonly used wall thickness in butt welded fittings.

Pipe tees can be equal tee and reducing tee.These tees have same functions,the only difference is the reducing tee can reduce the flow in the piping system.Stainless steel fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

90 degree steel pipe elbow functioned to change fluid direction by 90 degree, so also named as vertical elbow. It is the common degree in all the pipeline systems and used most in all different degree of elbows

1/2 in bend is small diameter fitting in pipe fittings.The degree of bends can be customized by clients.Carbon steel pipe fitting can be used to satisfy many applications because of the great functions and affordable price.

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

When short radius elbows are used, the maximum working pressure should not exceed 0.8 times of long radius elbows of the same specification Miter elbows are usually used for large-size pipes with moderate conditions in low pressure (design pressure s2.0mpa), water and similar fluid media

45 degree BW tee’s specification and advantages in pipe system.

Butt welded elbow is a pipe fitting which used welded connection to connect with the pipes in piping system.BW elbbows have two degrees to choose:90 deg elbow and 45 deg eblbow.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.

90 deg long radius elbow is a commonly used type in elbows.There are aslo 90 degree short radius elbow and 45 degree elbow.Stainless steel pipe fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

BW 3D elbow is belong to Butt welded (BW) elbows.3D means the radius is 3 times of dimensions long.A234 WPB is the most used grade of carbon steel butt welded (BW) fittings according to American Standrad.The degree of the butt welded 3D elbow can be 45 deg, 90 deg and 180 deg.

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.

Reducing tee a one of the type of tees,the other type is equal tee.these two types tees have similar functions,but the reducing tees can reduce the flow.Shanghai Zhucheng is an excellent Pipe fittings manufacturer who supplys high quality fittings for many years.
