Stainless Steel Socket Weld Couplings ASME B16.11 Forged Fittings

Socket Weld Half Couplings is utilised in various applications in order to provide a torque free sealing and a leak free connection. Socket weld coupling is a very short section of pipes with socket bore at both ends or one end, but both can afford high pressure of 3000#, 6000#, 9000#. The Socket Weld Half Coupling are often directly welded to the run pipe, to form a branch connection.

According to its radius of curvature, there are long radius elbow and short radius elbow. Long radius elbow refers to its radius of curvature is equal to 1.5 times the outside diameter of the pipe, that is, R=1.5D; A short radius elbow means that its radius of curvature is equal to the outer diameter of the pipe, that is, R= 1.0d.(D is the diameter of the elbow, and R is the radius of curvature).

SW tee can socketed with the pipes and welding with the pipes.ASME B16.11 fittings are forged fittings according to American Standard.Tees can be equal tee and reducing tee.These tees have same functions,the only difference is reducing tee can reduce the flow in piping system.

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

What is a pipe Socklet and its advantages and disadvantages.

ASME B16.11 forged fittings are popular because of the famous American Standard and the variety products.Socket weld (SW) fittings and threaded (THD) fittings are both forged fittings.Stainless steel pipe fittings are always chosen in corrosive and chemical environments.

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.

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.

What is a SW coupling and what about its size and specification

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.

SW tees have two types:Equal and Reducing.SW fittings have same ranges of size(1/8”-4”) and pressures(2000lb,3000lb,6000lb,9000lb).Class 3000 is the most common used among these pressures.Class 3000 can be labeled as 3M,where M means 1000,class 3000 fittings can withstand up to 3000 PSI.

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.

SW tee and elbow are both socket weld fittings used in piping system.These fittings used to connect the pipes and transport flow. Shanghai Zhucheng is an excellent SW fittings supplier who supplys high quality pipe fittings and flanges for years.

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.

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.

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.
