Product Introduction:

Screwed and forged pipe fittings are integral components used in various piping systems to create secure connections between pipes and other equipment. These fittings include a variety of shapes and configurations such as elbows,tees,reducing tees,couplings,half couplings, caps, reducing couplings, barrel nipples, hexagonal nipples, hexagonal bushings, hexagonal head plugs, sockolets, weldlets, threadolets, elbolets, and nippolets.

Manufactured through a forging process, these fittings are available in a range of sizes from 1/4" (6 mm) NB to 4" (100 mm) NB, ensuring compatibility with various piping systems. They are rated for high pressure, with classes including #1000, 2000, 3000, 6000 and 9000, which indicates their ability to withstand significant stress and pressure in demanding environments.

The dimensions of screwed and forged pipe fittings adhere to several industry standards, including ANSI B16.11, MSS-SP79, BS3799, DIN-2950, EN-10241, EN-10242, and IS 1239 Part II ensuring consistency and reliability in performance.

These fittings can be made from a variety of materials, including stainless steel grades such as ASTM A182 F 304, F 304L, F 304H, F 309, F 310, F 316, F 316L, F 316 TI, F 317, F 317L, F 321, and F 347. Additionally, they can be produced from carbon steel (ASTM A 105, ASTM A 350 LF2), alloy steel (ASTM A182 F1, F11, F22, F5, F9) and other materials such as nickel and nickel alloys, Inconel, Monel, Hastelloy, cupro-nickel, titanium, duplex and super duplex. This variety of materials allows for tailored solutions to meet specific requirements in different industrial applications.

Advantages:

• 1.Adaptability: Both types are suitable for a wide range of pipe sizes and materials, offering flexibility in system design and modification.
• 2.Endurance: Forged fittings provide exceptional strength due to their improved grain structure, making them ideal for high pressure applications. Screwed fittings also offer good durability for lower pressure systems.
• 3.Maintenance and setup: Screwed fittings can be quickly installed without specialized welding equipment, while both types allow for relatively easy disassembly and reassembly during maintenance.
• 5.Comprehension strength: Forged fittings excel in high pressure and extreme temperature environments, maintaining their structural integrity across a wide range of conditions.

Applications:

• 1.Oil and Gas Industry: Screwed and forged pipe fittings are extensively used in offshore and onshore pipelines, refinery piping systems and wellhead assemblies. They provide the necessary strength and reliability for handling high-pressure fluids and gases in this demanding sector.
• 2.Chemical Processing: In chemical plants, these fittings are crucial for chemical transfer lines, reactor piping and storage tank connections. Their corrosion resistance and ability to withstand harsh chemicals make them ideal for this application.
• 3.Power Distribution: Steam distribution systems, cooling water circuits and fuel supply lines in power plants rely on screwed and forged fittings for their durability and heat resistance.
• 4. Mining and Mineral Processing: Slurry transport systems, acid leaching circuits and de-watering pipelines in mining operations depend on these kind of fittings for their strength and wear resistance.
