• Forged fittings vs. Buttweld Fittings

  Forged fittings are used for piping systems below 2 or 4 inches in diameter (4″ for 2000#/3000# fittings, 2″ for 6000#/9000# fittings), whereas buttweld fittings are used for larger diameter piping.The two main types of forged fittings are the so-called socket weld fittings (which are connected to

• CORRUGATED SHEETS

  Corrugated panels are manufactured through a cold-form process where they are pressed and then roll formed to create the desired corrugated shape. The corrugations within the steel increase the overall tensile strength, making it resistant to increased impact and weight loads. The steel’s corrugated

• Piping Material Selection

  Design ValuesAllowable stresses for the materials specifications contained in the piping class have been established in line with ANSI/ASME B31.3, Paragraph 302.3.For API 5L Grade B, a distinction has been made between seamless pipe and welded pipe with a weld joint factor E=0.95 (in accordance with

• STEEL ANGLES

  Angle is a shape with two flat surfaces that are perpendicular and provide good resistance to bending in any direction.Angles are one of the most common structural steel shapes and are widely used in structures and construction.They are available both as “equal angles” where both legs are the same s

• FORGED STEEL FITTINGS

  Forged steel fittings are the fittings made by forged steel. The process of manufacturing forged steel fittings include: cutting and heating billets, put pressure on heated billets under dies into desired shape, trimming and shot blasting. Then machine forged blank fittings for net shape and dimensi

• BUTTWELD REDUCERS

  BUTTWELD REDUCERSCONCENTRIC REDUCERThe open ends of a concentric reducer are aligned and centered one to the other. Generally, this type of pipe reducer is used to modify the bore size of the pipeline by two (maximum three) measures, to avoid an excessive pressure drop in the pipeline.If a larger re

• SHORT VS LONG RADIUS ELBOW

  SHORT VS LONG RADIUS ELBOWThe center to face distance of a long radius pipe elbow is always 1.5 times the nominal pipe size, whereas, for a short radius pipe elbow, the center to face distance is equal to the nominal pipe size.Example:For a 4 inches long radius (LR) butt weld elbow, the center to fa
