What is a SW Coupling

Forged socket weld coupling is a short piece of pipe with socket bore at end, which is manufactured in acordance to ASME B16.11. Couplings are used to help extend or terminate runs and to change pipe sizes and are designed to provide good flow characteristics. We supplied many A105 carbon steel and 316 stainless steel socket weld fittings to customers.

Socket Weld Fittings are a family of high pressure forging fittings that used only in conjunction with ANSI Pipe and are available in the same size range.

Even though there are some similarities between the shapes of the two welds, but socket weld is still considered to be different from a fillet weld.
