90 degree steel elbow ASME B16.9 pipe fittings
If you are confused for the description of the elbow, for example what is butt weld elbow? What is socket weld elbow? What are the meaning of LR and SR? Please read the following content, we will explain the specifications and application of each type of elbow for your future purchase.
What is the application and type of steel elbow ASME B16.9 pipe fittings?
Simply put, steel elbow ASME B16.9 pipe fittings is a kind of pipe nipple connect two pipes. The main purpose is to change direction of pipelines. It is well known that steel elbow can be divided into different degrees, usually refers to 45 degree steel pipe elbow, 90 degree steel pipe elbow and 180 degree steel pipe elbow. Other degrees such as 60 ° or 120 ° can also be used for pipeline system, in order to meet the special requirements.
90 degree steel elbow is the most popular type of pipe fittings.
90 degree steel elbow can change the direction of flow 90 degree in pipeline, also known as a straight elbow. It is the most commonly used type of pipe fittings in all piping systems because it is easily compatible with steel pipes. There are two types for 90 degree elbow, long radius and short radius elbows.
90 degree long radius elbow
Long radius elbow means that the curvature radius of the elbow is 1.5D. D is the elbow diameter. Long radius elbow is the most commonly used, which is also the default. It generally be used for the places with high pressure or high flow rate.
90 degree short radius elbow
Short radius elbow means that the curvature radius of the elbow is equal to the diameter of the pipe, which is often called 1D, and D is the diameter of the elbow. Short radius elbow are generally used for low pressure fluids or where elbows are limited during installation.
The material of 90 degree steel elbow ASME B16.9 pipe fittings
The raw material of steel elbow ASME B16.9 pipe fittings is commonly seamless steel pipe or weld steel pipe. According to different application of steel elbow, it can be produced seamless or weld elbows. Generally the high pressure pipeline seamless elbow is better than weld elbow, and weld elbow usually used for mesolow pipeline.
ASME B16.9 pipe fittings not only refer to steel elbow but also include steel tee, steel reducer and cap.
