What else can I help you with?
What is the filet weld size required for weldolets to main pipe joint?
wildly welding main pipe the are fillet weld or butweld
What is the minimum weld required on weldolets have welded a CS as the main run pipe is of less thickness?
To be fully welded out plus a fillet of @ 6mm to reduce the stress concentration factor at the bottom toe.
Why you use weldolet and socolet?
Weldolets and socolets are used in piping systems to create branch connections efficiently. Weldolets are typically welded to the main pipe, providing a strong and durable joint for higher pressure applications, while socolets are designed for socket weld connections, making them easier to install in tight spaces. Both fittings help minimize stress concentrations and ensure a smooth flow of fluids, enhancing the overall integrity of the piping system. Their use is critical in maintaining safety and reliability in various industrial applications.
Can a 8in weldolet be welded on 8in pipe?
There are size on size weldolets. The hold on the run pipe will necessarily be undersize (either hot tap or torch ) because it's not possible to cut the same size hole in the run without damaging the base material.
Is a weldolet a butt weld fitting?
Yes, a weldolet is a type of butt weld fitting used in piping systems. It is designed to provide a branch connection to a main pipe, allowing for a seamless flow of fluids. Weldolets are typically welded to the main pipe using a butt weld, ensuring a strong and secure joint. They are commonly used in various industries for their ability to minimize stress concentrations and maintain the integrity of the piping system.
What is the difference brwteen a weldolet and a pipet?
Weldolet is a trademarked name by Bonney Forge for internally reinforced forged branch outlet fittings. Pipet is a trademarked name by WFI for internally reinforced forged branch outlet fittings. Both comply with MSS SP-97 Internally Reinforced Forged Branch Outlet Fittings - Socket Welding, Threaded and Buttwelding Ends. Referenced in ASME B31.3-2020 304.3.1 a) (1). They are the same
What is the difference between a weldolet and a sockolet?
Weldolet and Sockolet are basically self reinforced fittings. Weldolet is used for Butt weld branch connection where standard tee is not available due to size restrictions and the piping is of critical / high pressure service. Sockolet is used for socket welding branch connection, which require reinforcing pad.
