Forged Cast Steel (CS) Threaded Half Socket
The Forged Carbon Steel Threaded Half Socket (also known as a Threaded Half Coupling) is a high-pressure branch connection fitting designed to connect a small-bore threaded pipe to a large-bore main header. With female threading on one end and a plain end welded directly to the header, it provides a strong, leak-tight branch tap. Manufactured from durable ASTM A105 forged carbon steel and compliant with ASME B16.11, MATC’s threaded half sockets deliver excellent strength and easy installation. Mustafa Ashqar Trading LLC (MATC) stocks a wide range of forged CS threaded half sockets in Dubai for industrial buyers and contractors across UAE and GCC.
