45 Dedree Elbow Galvanized Pipe Fittings

The function of an elbow and What is the difference between LR and SR elbow?

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

What is a pipe Tee,its specification and importance.

45 deg elbow can be butt welded elbow and forged elbow.Forged elbows are including SW (socket weld) elbow and THD (threaded) elbow.Stainless steel pipe fittings are popuar because stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance,stainless steel has using age over 50 years,so the material is more expensive than other materials.

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

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.

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.

45 deg elbow is a type of elbows,there are also 90 deg elbows and 180 deg elbows.These elbows have similar functions,the main difference is the degree.Elbows can be BW,SW and THD to chosen for different applications.Shanghai Zhucheng is a quality pipe fittings supplier from China.

Steel tee is a T-shaped pipe fitting with three branch pipes. It is used to divide pipes to adjust flow and change direction.

Steel pipe tee has three branches that can change fluid direction. It has T-shaped or Y-shaped, and include Equal Tee and Reducing Tee (Reducer Tee). Steel tee is widely used in pipe networks for convey liquids and gases.

45 deg elbow has three types:BW (butt welded) elbow,SW (socket welded) elbow and THD (threaded) elbow.Elbows can also be 90 degree and 180 degree to meet different demands.Shanghai Zhucheng is an experienced pipe fittings manufacturer who supplys high quality pipe fittings and flanges for many years.

Pipe crossing is used where four pipes intersect. The cross pipe may have one inlet and three outlets, or three inlets and one outlet. The diameter of the outlet and inlet can be the same or different.

Long radius elbow refers to the pipe outer diameter with radius of curvature equal to 1.5 times, i.e R = 1.5D.
Short radius elbow means that its radius of curvature is equal to the outer diameter of the tube, i.e R = 1.0D

Concentric reducers are perfectly suitable to use in the exclusion of the pump. 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.

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.

Butt welded reducers can be concentric (COC) reducer and eccentric (ECC) reducer.These reducers have same functions,the only difference is the internal structure.There are the BW fittings specifications in the content below.

ASME B16.9 Stainless Steel Butt Weld Cross Fittings The function of a cross is similar to that of a tee by means of the exception of providing two 90 Deg outlets opposite each other.

A Reducing Tee is a T-shaped pipe fitting with two outlets that cut at 90 degrees to the main line. These tees are available with a combination of diverse outlet sizes. In this, the branch port size is smaller than the other ports of the run.

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.

Elows’ standard and its wall thickness

A concentric reducer is used to join pipe sections or tube sections on the same axis. The concentric reducer is cone-shaped, and is used when there is a shift in diameter between pipes. For example, when a 1″ pipe transitions into a 3/4″ pipe and the top or bottom of the pipe doesn’t need to remain level.

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.

BW elbow and reducer are both commonly used pipe fittings in piping systems.A234 WPB is the most used grade for carbon steel butt welded fittings.

Radius of Long Radius (LR) Elbows is 1.5 times the pipe diameter. Radius of Carbon Steel Short Radius Elbow is 1.0 times the pipe diameter. Carbon Steel Seamless Elbow are in demand for use between two lengths of pipe or tube allowing a change of direction, usually these elbows distinguished by connection ends.

These types of tube fittings like male elbows and female elbows have been specifically designed for use on instrumentation, process and control systems and equipment employed in chemical, petroleum, fluid power, electronic and pulp and paper plants.

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.

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.

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.
