Butt Weld ELBOW

A PIPING BEND is simply a generic term in piping for an “offset” – a change in direction of the piping. It signifies that there is a “bend” i.e,  a change in direction of the piping (usually for some specific reason) – but it lacks specific, engineering definition as to direction and degree. Bends are usually made by using a bending machine (hot bending and cold bending) on-site and suited for a specific need. The use of bends is economic as it reduces the number of expensive fittings.

What is a Piping Elbow?

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”.

Butt-welded Elbows

The butt weld elbow is designed to change the direction of the fluid in the piping system. It has a long radius (LR) and a short radius (SR) type, and has different degrees covers to: 45 degree, 90 degree and 180 degree.

·         The pipe is connected to butt welded elbow as shown in Fig. 4 by having a butt-welding joint.

·         Butt-welded fittings are supplied with bevel ends suitable for welding to the pipe. It is important to indicate the connected pipe thickness /schedule while ordering. All edge preparations for butt welding should conform to ASME B16.25.

·         Dimensions of butt welded elbows are as per ASME B16.9. This standard is applicable for Stainless steel  carbon steel & alloy steel butt weld fittings of NPS 1/2” through 48”.
