Reducing Tee Dimension ASME B16.9 Pipe Fittings

Clean the steel pipe elbow body and wrap the polyethylene tape on it with adhesive. Usually the thickness of coating is 2mm. They are used in the underground pipeline system. Long radius elbow refers to the pipe outer diameter with radius of curvature equal to 1.5 times, i.e R = 1.5D.

ASME B 16.9 tee is BW (butt welded) tee belong to butt welded fittings.These tees can bu equal type or reducing type.Normal tees can change the direction of the pipe system of 90 deg.And tees also have lateral tees to change the direction of 45 deg.

Carbon steel elbows are curved connecting pieces that join straight lengths of pipe, commonly at a 90° or 45° angle, allowing obstructions to be avoided in plumbing, ventilation, welding, and automotive applications.

Steel pipe tee is a pipe fitting used to tansport the flow in the piping system.Carbon steel fittings are used in many applications becasue of its great excellent functions.

45 deg elbow has three types:BW,SW,THD.Among these,The commonly used elbows can be 45 deg and 90 deg.BW (butt welded) 90 degree elbows have LR (long radius) and SR (short radius) while 45 degree elbows only have LR type.

Concentric Reducer (COC Reducer),is one type of BW reducer.The other type is Eccentric Reducer (ECC Reducer).The two types reducers can meet different demands,You could find the “Concentric VS Eccentric” below to learn the usages for these two types reducers.

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.

Schedule 80 elbow is BW pipe fittings,schedule is also called “SCH”,it is represents the wall thickness of butt welded fittings and steel pipes.The commonly used wall thicknesses: SCH 40,SCH 80.

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.

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.

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

The function of an end cap is to block off the end of a line a piping system, This is achieved by placing the end cap over the open line and welding around the point.

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

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

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.

In the layout of the pipeline system, long radius elbows should generally be used for connection, and short radius elbows are usually used in places where the installation position of the pipeline system is compact or to reduce costs

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.

180 deg BW elbow can change the direction of fluids or gas in 1800 degree.Butt welded elbows can also be 90 deg and 45 deg.90 deg elbow and 45 deg elbow are more commonly used than 180 deg elbow.You could find the surmmary ” 45 degree elbow VS 90 degree elbow”.

Butt Weld Fittings are manufacture by seamless or welded pipe. For pipe fittings manufacturers, the forming process of welded pipe and seamless pipe is basically same. Butt welded fittings can be divided into carbon steel butt welded fittings and stainless-steel butt-welded fittings.

304/316L BW tees are the most used tees in stainless steel tees.304/316L are the most used grades in American Standard.Tees can be Equal Tees and Reducing Tees.You could find the summary “Equal VS Reducing Tee” in the content below.Stainless steel pipe fittings are populat because of the excellent functions of corrosion resistance.

The characteristic of concentric reducers is that their center lines coincide, that is, the centers of the large and small heads are on the same straight line. This design allows the flow direction of the fluid to remain basically unchanged when passing through the reducer, reducing the resistance caused by the change in flow direction.

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 steel BW tees are always used in many corrosive environments because of the corrosion resistance of stainless steel.ASTM A182 F316 is a commonly used 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.

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.

Difference between a pipe elbow and a pipe bend is as follows:
