Threaded and Socket Welded Fittings
Product Spotlights
Introduction
Socket welded fittings are forged pipe fittings designed for small-diameter, high-pressure piping systems. The pipe is inserted into a recessed socket and then fillet welded around the joint, forming a strong and leak-resistant connection.
These fittings are widely used in industries requiring high reliability and pressure safety, including oil & gas, chemical processing, power generation, and hydraulic systems.
Compared with threaded fittings, socket weld fittings provide superior sealing performance and are more suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature working conditions.
Product Types
We supply a full range of socket welded fittings:
· Socket Weld Elbow (45° / 90°)
· Socket Weld Tee (Equal / Reducing)
· Socket Weld Coupling (Full / Half)
· Socket Weld Union
· Socket Weld Cap
· Socket Weld Reducer Insert
Material Options
Available materials include:
· Carbon Steel (ASTM A105)
· Stainless Steel (304 / 316 / 316L)
· Alloy Steel (F11 / F22 / F91)
· Duplex Stainless Steel (custom available)
These materials ensure excellent mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and long service life under harsh industrial environments.
Key Features
· High pressure resistance and structural integrity
· Leak-proof welded connection
· Suitable for small-bore piping systems (typically ≤ 2")
