Large diameter elbow

Large diameter elbow is curved connecting pieces that join straight lengths of pipe, commonly at a 90° or 45° angle, allowing obstructions to be avoided in plumbing, ventilation, welding, and automotive applications.


ASME B16.9 Standard covers overall dimensions, tolerances,ratings, testing, and markings for factory-made wrought buttwelding fittings in sizes NPS 1⁄2 through NPS 48 (DN 15 through DN 1200).

Size range:

  • 20 "-62" Inch
  • Wall thickness: Sch5-Sch160 XXS

Material:

  • Carbon steel: ASTM A234 WPB, WPC, ASTM A420 WPL1, WPL3, WPL6, WPHY42, 46, 52, 56, 60, 65, 70
  • Alloy steel: ASTM A234 WP1, WP12, WP11, WP22, WP5, WP7, WP8, WP91 API5L X42 X52 X56 X60 X65 X70 X80

  • Standards: ANSI, DIN, JIS, GB, ASTM, JB, SH, YB, SY, HG, API ASME

Usage:

Petroleum, chemical, power, gas, metallurgy.

Our pipe elbows are widely used in many industries, such as power generation, petroleum, natural gas, chemicals, shipbuilding, heating, papermaking, metallurgy and so on.

A324 WP elbow is the manufacturing process of ASTM A234 WPB.
  • W = WELDABLE / wrought
  • P = RELATED TO P NUMBER OF ALLOY MATERIAL

Notes:

  • For each reduction of 0.01% below the specified C maximum, an increase of 0.06% Mn above the specified maximum will be permitted, up to a maximum of 1.35%.
  • The sum of Cu, Ni, Cr, and Mo shall not exceed 1.00%.
  • The sum of Cr and Mo shall not exceed 0.32%.
  • The maximum carbon equivalent (C.E.) shall be 0.50, based on heat analysis and the formula C.E.=C+Mn/6+(Cr+Mo+V)/5+(Ni+Cu)/15.

Process

Killed steel, with forgings, bars, plates, sheet, and seamless or fusion-welded tubular products with filler metal added. Forging or shaping operations performed by hammering, pressing, piercing, extruding, upsetting, rolling, bending, fusion welding, machining, or by a combination of two or more of these operations.

Heat Treatment

After forming at an elevated temperature, fittings are cooled to a temperature below the critical range under suitable conditions to prevent injurious defects caused by too rapid cooling, but in no case more rapidly than the cooling rate in still air. Heat treatment temperatures specified are metal (part) temperatures. Heat-treated fittings are to be treated according to paragraph 7 in Specification A960/A960M.
