About : Forge Fittings
Forge fittings are types of piping components that are created through a forging process, which involves shaping metal using compressive forces. They are typically used in high-pressure piping systems in industries such as oil, gas, petrochemical, and power generation. Forge fittings can handle extreme conditions, such as high pressure, temperature, and corrosive environments, due to their strength and durability.
The most common types of forged fittings include:
- Elbows: Used to change the direction of the flow in piping systems.
- Tees: Used to combine or split fluid flow in a pipeline.
- Couplings: Connect two pipes together.
- Unions: Similar to couplings, but allow for easier disconnection and rejoining of pipes.
- Caps: Seal the end of a pipe.
- Reducers: Reduce the size of a pipe.
They are generally available in socket-weld or threaded forms, made from materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steel.
