ASTM A234WPB Buttweld Fittings Manufacturer, Supplier, Exporter & Stockist in india

ASTM A234 WPB buttweld fittings are an integral part of piping systems, providing essential connections and redirections in pipelines. These fittings are manufactured from carbon steel or low-alloy steel materials, making them suitable for a wide range of applications where strength, toughness, and resistance to corrosion and high temperatures are required. The "WPB" designation indicates that the material meets specific standards for suitability in high-temperature service. These fittings are available in a variety of sizes, ranging from 1/2" to 48", and wall thicknesses corresponding to various schedules (e.g., Schedule 10, Schedule 40, Schedule 80).

One of the key features of ASTM A234 WPB fittings is their versatility in joining pipes of different sizes and shapes through butt welding. The seamless and welded manufacturing processes ensure the reliability and structural integrity of these fittings. They are commonly used to create connections such as elbows, tees, reducers, and caps, allowing for changes in flow direction and size within a piping system. In terms of performance, ASTM A234 WPB fittings are designed to operate in a temperature range from -20°F to 800°F (-29°C to 427°C) and can handle pressures ranging from 150 PSI to 2500 PSI, depending on the size and schedule. The chemical composition of these fittings is tightly controlled to meet specific standards, with low carbon content to enhance weldability and resistance to corrosion. Mechanical properties such as tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation are also specified to ensure the fittings' reliability and durability in service.
