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

Socket Weld Fittings Specification
Shape: Elbow, Tee, Cross, Coupling, Union, Cap, Reducing Insert, Sockolet
Size Range: 1/8″ –  4″ / DN6 – DN100
Pressure Rating: Class 3000lbs, 6000lbs, 9000lbs
Standard: ASME B16.11, BS3799, EN 10241, MSS SP-83, MSS SP-97

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.

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

Socket Weld Coupling material can be divided into carbon steel, alloy steel and stainless-steel, and the pressure ratings is Class 3000, 6000, and 9000.

CL3000 carbon steel lateral tees are not a common used fittings but have an important role in pipe systems.Forged socket weld fittings are always be chosen because of the excellent leak-proof function.These lateral tees have run pipe with 45 deg from main pipe.

Socket weld cross is a pipe fitting used to transport flow in the piping system.SW fittings are belong to forged steel pipe fittings,the other type of forged fitting is threaded fittings.Forged fittings are high pressure fittings used in many applications.

ASME B16.11 is the standard contains ratings, dimensions, tolerances, marking and material requirements for forged fittings, both socket-welding and threaded. Threaded fittings are available in pressure ratings Class 2000, 3000, and 6000; Socket welding fittings are available in pressure ratings Class 3000, 6000, and 9000.

SPECIFICATION Of Socket Weld Elbows and its advantages.

What is a SW Union and what about its specification and usage.

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.

CL3000 socket weld tees are the most used pressure pipe fittings because of the wide using range.ASME B16.11 forged pipe fittings are including SW and THD fittings.

It is usually welded directly to the pipeline to form a branch connection. Couplings do not normally allow disconnection of shafts during operation, however there are torque-limiting couplings which can slip or disconnect when some torque limit is exceeded.

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

The main purpose of using pipe caps is to waterproof the connections. They are also used to close the the ends of hydraulic or pneumatic pipes and tubes. The use of Forged End Pipe Caps is common in many industries such as oil and gas industries, chemical industries and water supply lines.

High Pressure Pipe 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.

SW (socket weld) elbow is high pressure forged fitting which can used in many industries ‘ pipe systems.SW elbows have 90 deg and 45 deg.SW elbows have pressures: 3000LB,6000LB,9000LB.SS304 fittings are always used in chemical industries because of the excellent corrosion resistance.

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.

What is a Socket Weld Union,what about its specification and advantages.

What is a SW fiting and how about a SW Elbows’ specification?

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

A182 SS304L sockolet is a pipe stainless steel pipe fitting.Stainless steel fittings are popular because of the great anti-corrosive function.Shanghai Zhucheng is an excellent high quality pipe fittings supplier in China.

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.

We are the ISO certified manufacturer from China. Our main products contains steel pipe, pipe fittings and flanges in carbon steel, alloy steel and stainless steel.

The socket weld elbow is resistance corrosion/pitting/oxidation/stress corrosion cracking and crevice corrosion. Reducing elbows connect two pipes of different diameters to reduce the diameter when the pipe rotates.
