A Stainless Steel 90-Degree Elbow Butt Weld Fitting is a type of pipe fitting used to connect two pipes at a right angle (90 degrees) in a piping system. These fittings are typically made from stainless steel, which offers excellent corrosion resistance, durability, and strength, making them suitable for various industrial applications, including chemical processing, oil and gas, and food and beverage industries.
Key Features:
- Material: Made of stainless steel, often in grades such as 304 or 316, which provide good corrosion resistance and mechanical properties.
- Butt Weld Connection: Designed to be welded directly to the ends of the pipes, creating a permanent, strong, and leak-proof joint.
- 90-Degree Angle: Changes the direction of the pipe run by 90 degrees, commonly used when routing piping around obstacles or changing the flow direction in a system.
- Size Range: Available in various sizes to accommodate different pipe diameters.
- Schedule (Wall Thickness): Available in different schedules (e.g., Schedule 10, 40, 80) to match the wall thickness of the pipes being connected.
Applications:
- Chemical Processing: Used in systems requiring corrosion-resistant materials.
- Oil and Gas: Suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature applications.
- Food and Beverage: Stainless steel’s resistance to rust and staining makes it ideal for hygienic applications.
- Water Treatment: Commonly used in systems that handle potable water and other fluids.
