BW Reducing Tee Carbon Steel Fittings

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

ASME B16.9 tee is a butt welded tee .ASME B16.9 is American Standard for BW fittings.Carbon steel fittings are always been chosen 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, and is commonly used to connect hoses to pumps, deck drains and valve.

5in SW elbow is used to socketed with pipes and then welded on pipes.ASME B16.11 pipe fittings mean forged pipe fittings.Forged pipe fittings can be divided in socket weld fittings and threaded fittings.

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

ASME B16.9 tee is an American Standard butt welded fitting.BW tees can be two types:Equal Tees and Redcing Tees.These tees have similar functions but reducing tees can reduce the flow while equal tees can not.You could find the summary “Equal VS Reducing” in the content below.

Butt welded lateral tee is a special type of BW tees.It is different from the normal tees as the lateral tee can change the direction of the pipe system in 45 degree.Carbon steel fittings are the most used fittings as carbon steel material has great functions and affordable price.

Reducing tee is a commonly used fittings to branch the pipes and reduce the flow in the piping systems.Large dimension is for butt welded fittings.ASME B16.9 pipe fittings are BW fittings according to American Standard,the size range for the ASME B16.9 fittings is 1/2″-80″.

LR 90 degree steel pipe elbow are installed between different lengths pipe or tubing. It helps to change direction at 90 degree, and is commonly used to connect hoses to pumps, deck drains and valve.SR 90 degree elbow is the same as the pipe elbow mentioned above, but the diameter is shorter. Therefore, this kind of steel elbow is often used when space is not enough.

3/4in BW tee is a normally used fitting in butt welded fittings.A403 WP321 is a grade for stainless steel.Stainless steel pipe fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

Long radius elbow refers to the pipe outer diameter with radius of curvature equal to 1.5 times, i.e R = 1.5D. Most elbows are available in short radius or long radius variants. When the two ends differ in size, the fitting is called a reducing elbow or reducer elbow.

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.

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. 

oncentric reducers are beneficial to use where different ratings and to wear protection is required in conveying between flanges or pipes.

Steel bend is almost same as pipe elbow. It’s radius is bigger and extensive used in oil and gas, engineering and construction industry.

BW tees and elbows are both commonly used pipe fittings used to transport flow in piping system.Stainless steel pipe fittings re popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

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

Connect two pipes with the same or different nominal diameters to make the pipeline turn at 90 degrees, 45 degrees, 180 degrees and other angles

Long Radius (LR) Elbow is also called LR elbow – means the radius is 1.5 times the pipe diameter
L/R 45°Elbow: Long radius 45 degree elbow changes the direction by 45 degrees.
L/R 90°Elbow: Long radius 90 degree elbow changes the direction by 90 degrees.
L/R 180°Elbow: Long Radius 180 degree return bend allows complete reversal of flow.

45 deg elbow can change the direction of fluids or gas in 45 degree.There is also has 90 deg elbow to be chosen.45 degree elbow has many diffences with 90 degree elbow.All types of elbows can be Equal Tee and Reducing Tee to satisfy different demands.

A403 WP304  eccentric reducer is a pipe fitting used to connect pipes of different diameters, and the central axes do not overlap, which means there is an eccentricity. The eccentric reducer has two ends, one with a larger diameter and the other with a smaller diameter.

BW reducers have two types:Concentric Reducer and Eccentric Reducer.These two types can meet different demand.This is stainless steel BW COC reducer in the picture.Stainlee steel is better in corrosion resistance,so the used years will be longer than other matercial.

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.

Tee welding joints are formed when two pieces intersect at a 90° angle. This results in the edges coming together in the center of a plate or component in a ‘T’ shape. Tee joints are considered to be a type of fillet weld, and they can also be formed when a tube or pipe is welded onto a base plate.

What is a pipe Tee,its specification and importance.

The two ends of concentric reducer are designed with large diameter and small diameter, and the pipe is connected through conical transition section on the same axis.
