BOTHWELL® FORGED STEEL CROSS SOCKET WELD
Specification:
- Material: Forged Steel (ASTM A105 or equivalent) – Known for its high strength, durability, and ability to withstand high-pressure and high-temperature conditions.
- Pressure Rating: Typically rated for high-pressure applications, generally up to 3,000 psi or more, depending on the size and system requirements.
- Size Range: Available in a variety of sizes, typically from 1/2″ to 4″ (12mm to 100mm), with custom sizes available upon request.
- Temperature Range: Suitable for use in high-temperature environments, typically ranging from -50°C to +200°C, depending on the material and seals used.
- Connection Type: Socket Weld – Provides a secure, permanent connection by welding the fitting into place, ensuring a leak-tight seal.
- Standards Compliance: Manufactured in compliance with ASTM A105, ASME B16.11, and other relevant standards to ensure high performance, reliability, and safety in high-pressure systems.
Classification:
- Type: Cross Socket Weld
- Application: Used to connect four pipes or tubes at a common point in high-pressure systems, providing a 90-degree branch connection. These fittings are commonly used in fluid or gas transfer systems in industries such as oil & gas, chemical processing, petrochemical, and power generation.
- Features:
- Cross Design: Allows for the connection of four pipes at a central point, ideal for distributing fluids or gases in multiple directions.
- Forged Steel Construction: Provides exceptional strength and resistance to high pressure, corrosion, and temperature extremes, ensuring long-lasting reliability in demanding environments.
- Socket Weld Connection: Ensures a leak-proof, permanent connection between the pipes, making it ideal for high-pressure applications.
- Durability: Forged steel construction ensures that the fitting is robust and durable, capable of withstanding harsh industrial environments.
Description:
- BOTHWELL® FORGED STEEL CROSS SOCKET WELD
The BOTHWELL® Forged Steel Cross Socket Weld fitting is a high-quality, durable component used to connect four pipes at a central point in high-pressure piping systems. Constructed from forged steel (ASTM A105), this fitting provides superior strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability in demanding applications.
The socket weld connection creates a secure, permanent, and leak-proof joint between the pipes, making it ideal for critical systems where a strong and reliable connection is necessary. These cross fittings are commonly used in industries such as oil & gas, chemical processing, power generation, and petrochemical, where fluid or gas distribution across multiple branches is required. The BOTHWELL® Forged Steel Cross Socket Weld fitting ensures leak-free, high-pressure operation, even in the most challenging environments.
