ELBOW

Product Description

A PIPING ELBOW, on the other hand, is a specific, standard, engineered bend pre-fabricated as a spool piece  (based on ASME B 16.9) and designed to either be screwed, flanged, or welded to the piping it is associated with. An elbow can be 45 degrees or 90 degrees. There can also be custom-designed elbows, although most are categorized as either “short radius” or long radius”.

Typical Applications

    • They are manufactured to be used in flow lines for gases, fluids in industrial processes, medical, construction and many other specialized applications.

    • The elbows are constructed of heavy materials for rigid applications like extreme high/low temperature resistance etc.

    • The elbows are specifically designed for use on process and control systems, instrumentation, and equipment used in chemical, petroleum, fluid power, electronic and pulp and paper plants.

Weldability

Good
