Alloy Steel Butt Weld 45 Degree Elbow

What is Alloy Steel Butt Weld 45 Degree Elbow

Alloy steel butt weld 45 degree elbow is one of the butt weld types of fittings. It's bending mode can change the flow direction of fluid / gas in the pipeline. In the field of butt welding steel elbows, it looks like a half of the 90 degree elbow. Commonly, the 90 degree elbows can be a seamless elbow or a welded elbow. Bending the two ends of pipe to a angle of 45 degree, it is a 45 degree seamless elbow.

Alloy steel butt weld 45 degree elbow widely used in chemical, food, water supply facilities, electronic industry, chemical piping, horticulture, agricultural production, solar equipment piping, air conditioning piping and many other applications.

What is the Material Alloy Steel

Alloy steel is a type of steel with alloying elements other than carbon added to improve its properties. Some of the common additions to alloy steel include: chromium, cobalt, columbium, molybdenum, manganese, nickel, titanium, tungsten, silicon, and vanadium.

Alloy steel butt Weld 45 Degree Elbow is often used in applications that require high strength, such as construction or manufacturing. Stainless steel is a specific type of alloy steel that contains a relatively large proportion of chromium. The added element gives this metal its distinctive shine and corrosion resistance.

Alloy steel ASTM A234 has several different grades include WP5, WP9, WP11, WP12, WP22 and WP91.

W:stands for weldable; P:stands for pressure and the number is grade.

ASTM A234 WP5/9/11/12/22/91 material are alloy steels that are used for fabricating piping fittings. The customary product of WP5 pipe fittings include caps, cross, elbows, reducers, tees etc. Alloy steel butt weld steel pipe cap is one of the ASTM A234 alloy steel pipe fittings.
