Socket Weld Fittings are forged pipe fittings designed for socket welding, ensuring a secure and leak-proof connection in high-pressure piping systems.
We offer a wide range of socket weld fittings, including tees, crosses, couplings, nipples, unions, and 90-degree elbow outlets. These fittings are available in stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, and super duplex stainless steel. They come in different pressure ratings such as 3000lbs, 6000lbs, and 9000lbs, catering to various industrial applications.
Types Of Socket Weld Fittings:
1. Full-coupling:
A Full Coupling is a type of pipe fitting that joins two pipes or connects a pipe to a nipple, ensuring a strong and leak-proof joint. It is widely used in high-pressure piping systems and is available in socket weld and threaded end connections. Made from stainless steel, carbon steel, and alloy steel, full couplings provide durability and reliability in various industrial applications.
2. Half-coupling:
A Half Coupling is a type of pipe fitting that can be directly welded to the run pipe to create a branch connection. It is commonly used in high-pressure piping systems and is available in socket weld and threaded end connections. Made from materials like stainless steel, carbon steel, and alloy steel, half couplings ensure a strong, durable, and leak-proof connection for various industrial applications.
3. Reducer insert:
Socket Weld Reducer Inserts are manufactured to MSS SP-79 standards and are designed to provide a quick and economical solution for pipeline reductions. These inserts allow seamless transitions between different pipe sizes using standard Socket Weld fittings. Made from high-quality materials such as stainless steel, carbon steel, and alloy steel, they ensure durability, strength, and leak-proof performance in high-pressure piping systems.
4. Reducing coupling:
A Reducing Coupling is a type of pipe fitting used to join two pipes with different outside diameters, ensuring a secure and leak-proof connection. It is commonly used in piping systems where a transition between different pipe sizes is required. Available in materials like stainless steel, carbon steel, and alloy steel, reducing couplings provide durability and reliability for various industrial applications.
5. Union (MSS SP-83):
A Union is a screwed joint design consisting of three interconnected pieces—two internally threaded ends and a centerpiece that pulls the ends together when rotated. This design allows for easy assembly and disassembly in piping systems. To ensure a secure and leak-proof connection, unions should be tightly screwed before welding the ends, minimizing seat warping and ensuring durability in high-pressure applications.
5. Elbow 90°:
A 90° Elbow is a pipe fitting designed to change the direction of flow by 90 degrees in a piping system. It is commonly used in various industries to efficiently redirect pipelines while maintaining smooth flow. Available in materials like stainless steel, carbon steel, and alloy steel, 90° elbows ensure durability, strength, and leak-proof performance in high-pressure applications.
5. Cross:
A Cross is a pipe fitting that creates a 90° branch from the main pipeline, allowing the flow to be distributed in four directions. It is commonly used in high-pressure and high-temperature piping systems where multiple branch connections are required. Made from materials like stainless steel, carbon steel, and alloy steel, crosses ensure durability, strength, and efficient fluid distribution in industrial applications.
