Reducing Tee ASME B16.9

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.

A 90 degree elbow attaches readily to plastic, copper, cast iron, steel and lead. It can also attach to rubber with stainless steel clamps. Elbow connectors can link pipes to avoid water leakage and air leakage between pipes.

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.

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).

Carbon steel elbows are the most commonly used elbows in all the types and material elbows.Large dimensions elbow is butt welded fitting,you can find the butt welded fittings specification below.

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.

a pipe bend’s dimension and its difference between an elbow.

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.

Whatis the difference between concentric and eccentric reducers?

ASTM A403 Stainless Steel Butt Weld 45 Degree Elbow refers to the material of forged and rolled austenitic stainless fittings for pressure pipes. Common grades are WP304/L, WP316/L. They can be used into many fields as engineering industry, energy conversion plants etc. ASTM A403 WP304, WP316 Elbow are buttweld fittings made for austenitic stainless steel applications with forged material.

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.

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.

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. Such fittings are important because they meet two needs, that is, to connect or separate liquid streams. They are widely used in positive and vacuum applications.

What is a Butt weld TEE and what about its difference between reducing tee .

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.

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.

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 .

A234 WP22 elbow is a alloy steel pipe fitting used in piping systems.A234 WP22 is represents alloy steel butt welded fittings in American Standard.Elbows can manufactured as 45 and 90 deg.These elbows have similar functions,the only difference is 45 degree elbow can changes the direction of pipes in 45 degree while 90 degree elbow can changes in 90 deg.

Lap joint stub end is belong to butt welded fittings,lap joint stub end is not usually used in many time.Lap joint stub end always be used with lap joint flange.Stainless steel pipe fittings are popular because stainless steel’s excellent performance in corrosion resistance.

S31803 90 degree elbow is a kind of stainless steel with two-phase structure of ferrite and austenite. It combines the high strength of ferritic stainless steel with the good toughness and corrosion resistance of austenitic stainless steel.

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.

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.

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.

90 degree steel pipe elbow functioned to change fluid direction by 90 degree, so also named as vertical elbow. A 90 degree elbow attaches readily to plastic, copper, cast iron, steel and lead. It can also attach to rubber with stainless steel clamps. Available in many materials like silicon, rubber compounds, galvanized steel etc.
