Our range of high pressure socket weld and threaded fittings are
fabricated to match with the ASME/ANSI B16.11-1991 and BS 3799:1974
standards. The different requirements such as dimensions, tolerances,
manufacturing materials and pressure ratings, etc. are mentioned below
:-
Specifications
The High pressure socket weld and threaded fittings can be availed with
the following specifications:
- ASME/ANSI B16.11-1991 - Forged fittings, socket-welding
and threaded
- BS 3799:1974 - Steel pipe fittings, screwed and
socket-welding for the petroleum industry. The specifications is
same as given in B16.11 and BS 3799 standard chart.
- The wall thicknesses quoted are not restrictive but do correlate
for calculation of pressure ratings.
- Bore dimensions for Class 3000 lb socket welding fittings
correspond to Schedule 40 pipe.
- Bore dimensions for Class 6000 lb socket welding fittings
correspond to Schedule 160 pipe.
Dimensions and Tolerances
Dimensions and Tolerances of high pressure socket fittings are
specified in the standard table of ASME/ANSI B16.11.
Manufacture
- ASME/ANSI B16.11-1991 - ASME/ANSI stainless steel socket
weld or threaded fittings are most.
- commonly manufactured from material conforming to ASTM A182
- BS 3799:1974 - Manufacturing requirements are
substantially the same as for B16.11.
- Marking with manufacturers name or trademark
- Material identification
- Class or pressure ratings
Pressure Ratings
General: The class designation of the high pressure fittings
indicates the maximum cold working pressure.
ASME/ANSI B16.11 Fittings: ASME/ANSI B16.11 specifies the
allowable pressure or temperature rating to be that of seamless pipe of
the equivalent material and wall thickness.
BS 3799 Fittings: BS 3799 includes a table of temperature or
pressure rating.
Outlets: These fittings conform to the pressure requirements of
ASME/ANSI B16.11.
