Stainless Steel Tube Fitting Socket Weld Coupling
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.
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.
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.
Socket Weld Coupling material can be divided into carbon steel, alloy steel and stainless-steel.
Socket welding Tube fittings are available in pressure ratings Class 3000, 6000, and 9000.
There are various types of socket-welding Tube fittings, such as Elbow, Cross, Tee, Coupling, Half Coupling, Boss, Cap, Union and Sockolet
