High-Pressure 45° Socket Weld Elbow

Product Detail

Standard

Product introduction
High-Pressure 45° Socket Weld Elbow
A specialized pipe fitting designed to change flow direction by 45° in high-pressure systems using a socket weld connection for superior leak resistance and structural integrity.
Key Features
1. Design & Construction  
  - 45° Angled Turn: Smoother flow diversion than 90° elbows for reduced turbulence  
  - Socket Weld Connection: Pipe inserts into the fitting's recessed "socket" for fillet welding  
  - Reinforced Structure: Thicker walls (SCH 80/160/XXS) for high-pressure containment  
  - Materials:  
    - ASTM A234 WP-WP9 (Carbon/alloy steel)  
    - ASTM A403 WP316/316L (Stainless)  
    - ASTM A182 F91 (High-temp chrome-moly)  
2. Pressure-Temperature Ratings
  - Class 3000/6000 per ASME B16.11  
  - Suitable for:  
    - ≤ 5,000 psi (345 bar) operating pressure  
    - -20°F to 1,000°F (-29°C to 538°C) 
3. Critical Applications  
  - Hydraulic power units  
  - Steam injection lines  
  - Offshore oil & gas manifolds  
  - Power plant boiler feed systems  
  - High-pressure chemical processing  
4. Advantages Over Threaded Elbows 
  - 50% stronger joints vs. threaded connections  
  - Zero thread galling** risk in cyclic service  
  - Smoother bore** for improved flow dynamics  
  - Vibration-resistant** welded construction  
5. Installation Protocol 
  - 1.6mm gap must be maintained between pipe and shoulder for thermal expansion  
  - Full penetration welds required per ASME BPVC Sec. 
  - Post-weld heat treatment(PWHT) mandatory for alloy materials  
6. Standards Compliance
  - ASME B16.11** (Forged socket weld fittings)  
  - NACE MR0175** (Sour service compatibility)  
  - PED 2014/68/EU** (European pressure directive)  
7. nspection Requirements
  - 100% radiographic testing (RT) for Class 6000+  
  - Liquid penetrant examination (PT) of all welds  
  - Hydrostatic test at 1.5x design pressure  
Why Select This Fitting?
Ideal for compact, high-P/T systems requiring:  
✔ Reliable 45° directional changes  
✔ Leak-proof performance  
✔ Minimal maintenance  
For corrosive services, specify electropolished 316L or alloy 625 versions.)
