What is a socket weld elbow and why do socket welders need a gap?

What is a SOCKET WELD-90 DEGREE ELBOW and what about its specification and advantages.

Socket weld union,is a pipe connector connected by socket welding. Socket weld  union mainly consists of a socket, a socket and a socket slot. It is characterized in that there is a socket slot on the socket, and the socket and the socket are located at both ends.

These pipe flanges are attached by inserting the pipe into the socket end and applying fillet weld around the top. This allows for a smooth bore and better flow of the fluid or gas inside of the pipe. The connection with the pipe is done with 1 fillet weld, at the outside of the flange. But before welding, a space must be created between flange or fitting and pipe.

ASTM A105 Swage Nipple is a type of carbon Steel Pipe Fittings and commonly used for connection two pipes with different diameters. It belongs to pipe reducers and are used in small pipe size more often.

Elbow is a pipe fitting that changes the direction of piping. According to the Angle, there are 45° and 90°180° three most commonly used. Elbow material can be divided into carbon steel, alloy steel and stainless-steel.

What is a Socket Weld 90 Degree Elbow,What about its specificaion and advantages.

A182 SS304L sockolet can makes a 90 degree branch from the pipe system .It has full size and reducing size.Shanghai Zhucheng is a high quality steel pipe fittings factory to supply many types of flanges for years.

ASTM A106 lateral tee is a carbon steel pipe fitting which plays an important role in pipe systems.Class 3000 pipe fittings are very popular because the pressure can be manufacture in both THD fittings and SW fittings.

Stainless steel SW elbow used socket connection with pipes and then welded on the pipes.ASTM A182 F304 is a commonly used grade for stainless steel fittings.Stainless steel pipe fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

Socket weld Elbow forged fitting has varieties of features such as reliability, durability and dimensional precision.

A Socket Weld Tube Fittings is a pipe attachment detail in which a pipe is inserted into a recessed area of a Valve, fitting or flange. Once correctly inserted, fillet type sealing welds are applied to join the pipe to the fitting.

SW full coupling is used to connect two pipes.Couplings can be full coupling and half coupling.ASME B16.11 pipe fittings are forged fittings including SW fittings and THD fittings.Socket weld fittings have many pressures:CL3000,CL6000,CL9000.

Socket welded tee are generally suitable for pipes with a nominal diameter of NPS 2 or less.

There are two types of tees:Equal Tee and Reducing Tee.Stainless steel pipe fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

Socket weld elbow is a forged fitting belongs to SW fittings,SW fittings can be socketed with pipes and then welded with the pipes.SW fittings have serive of pressures:Class 3000,Class 6000,Class 9000.Among these,the most used pressure is Class 3000.

Socket welded elbow can socket with pipes and welded on pipes.SW fittings are belong to forged fittings,the other type of forged fitting is threaded fittings.Forged fittings are high pressure fittings used in many applications.

Socket weld pipe fittings is a family member of forged steel fittings, which used for small bore pipes and piping systems (generally below 4 inches). We usually manufacture them according to ASME B16.11 standard.

A Socket Weld Fittings is a pipe attachment detail in which a pipe is inserted into a recessed area of a Valve, fitting or flange. Once correctly inserted, fillet type sealing welds are applied to join the pipe to the fitting.

Carbon steel pipe fittings are used in many applications because of its great excellent functions.Carbon steel pipe fittings can manufactured as THD (threaded) fittings,SW (socket weld) fittings and (BW) butt welded fittings.The specifications are in the content below.

High Pressure Tube Fittings is available in Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel and Alloy Steel. Different from buttweld fittings, Socket Weld fittings are mainly used for small pipe diameters (Small Bore Piping); generally, for piping whose nominal diameter is NPS 2 or smaller.

An equal tee, otherwise called straight tee, means the branch diameter of this tee is same with the main pipe (Run pipe) diameter of this tee.
A pipe tee is defined “equal” when the bore size at the run and branch sides have the same diameter. An equal tee is, therefore, used to connect two pipes of the same nominal diameter.

Equal  Elbow

Equal elbow is an elbow with the same diameter at both ends, which is characterized in that the pipeline connecting the two necks belongs to the same specification.

Reducing  Elbow

Reducing elbows connect two pipes of different diameters to reduce the diameter when the pipe rotates.
