Pipe elbows


Pipe elbow are used to be installed between two lengths of pipe or tube allowing a change of direction,usually these elbows distinguished by connection ends.


Key Specifications/Special Features and Materials


the material is selected accoding to the application use such as high temperature use,sanitary fitting,regular industrial use etc.


Carbon steel: ASTM A234wpb, WPC, ASTM A420 WPL6 Pipe Fitting , WPL1, WPL3, WPHY-42/46/52/56/60/65/70


Stainless steel: ASTM A403 304/304l Elbow, WP316/316/L, WP321, WP347 and WPS31254


Alloy steel: ASTM A234 WP1/WP12/WP11/WP22/WP5/WP7/WP9/WP91


Manufacturing standards: ANSI, ISO, JIS and DIN.


The ends of pipe elbows may be machined for butt welding , threaded , or socketed , so the elbows are consist of butt weld,thread elbow, socket elbow and other series.


Application of Pipe Fitting elbows:


Petroleum, chemical, power, gas, metallurgy, shipbuilding, construction, etc.


A wing of a building at right angles to the main structure.


A right-angled bend in a pipe or conduit; an elbow.


Elbows are design features as below


An elbow is a pipe fitting installed between two lengths of pipe or tubing to allow a change of direction, usually a 90 or 45 angle, though 22.5 elbows are also made.






 Pipe elbows size



Pressure: SCH5 to SCH160


Size range: 1/2 to 56 inches (DN 15 to DN 1,400mm), 22.5 Deg, 45 Deg, 90 Deg, 180 Deg


External arc length of elbow


Process: butt welding, seamless, threaded , or socketed



By default, there are 5 opportunities, the 45, 90 and 180 elbows, all three in the "long radius" version, and in addition the 90 and 180 elbows both in the "short radius" version.
