What are Weldolets used for?
Weldolets are used to provide an outlet area from a larger to a smaller pipe connection point. The weldolet is welded to the larger pipe (the run) and connected to the smaller pipe (the branch).
What is a Latrolet?
Latrolet that is used for taking branch which is not at 90 degrees to run pipe. Latrolet comes in a 45°or any other special degree as required by purchaser. End connections of a Latrolet can be butt welded, socket welded or threaded.
What type of weld is an OLET?
butt-weld
Types of Branch Connection Fittings. Weldolet® is the most common of all branch connections, and is welded onto the outlet pipe. The ends are bevelled to facilitate this process, and therefore the weldolet is considered a butt-weld fitting.
What are the types of flange?
Most commonly used flanges are weld neck flange, slip on flange, blind flange, socket weld flange, threaded flange and lap joint flange (RTJ Flange). This type of connection in a pipe flange allows for ease of disassembly and separation for repair and regular maintenance.
Which type of flange is used in high pressure and temperature service?
Ring Joint Face (RTJ): Used in high-pressure and high-temperature processes, this face type features a groove in which a metal gasket sits to maintain the seal. Tongue and Groove (T&G): These flanges feature matching grooves and raised sections.
What is flange and types?
The key types of flanges are the welding neck, long welding neck, slip-on, socket weld, lap joint, threaded and blind flanges. In addition to these standard flanges, some special ones exist, called Weldoflange/Nipoflange and Elboflange, swivel flange, expander/reducer flange, and orifice flanges.
Which is the branch form of a weldolet?
Form : Welding Outlets, Welding Olets. Weldolet is the most popular branch connection: the branch is made by welding the item to the outlet of the run pipe. The ends of a ASTM A105 Weldolet are bevelled to facilitate the welding process, and for this reason Weldolet belong to the family of butt weld Fittings.
What kind of fittings are good for a weldolet?
Slide pipe into the socket and weld for a strong, permanent connection. 304 stainless steel fittings have very good corrosion resistance. 316 stainless steel fittings have excellent corrosion resistance. Tee outlets allow you to create a tap anywhere along a pipe. They are also known as branch connectors and are comparable to Weldolet.
What are the uses of stainless steel weldolet?
Stainless Steel Weldolet uses in General Purpose Applications Alloy Steel Weldolet uses in Food Processing Industry Super Duplex Steel Weldolet uses in Oil and Gas Pipeline
What do weldolets do in noncorrosive environment?
Use in noncorrosive environments. Tee outlets allow you to create a tap anywhere along a pipe. They are also known as branch connectors and are comparable to Weldolet. To install, drill a hole in your pipe to match the fitting’s pipe size and weld in place. For technical drawings and 3-D models, click on a part number.
