MS Fittings: Types, Applications and Dimensions

Table of Contents

MS Fittings (mild steel fittings) play an important role in pipeline systems. They are connectors between pipeline systems and mechanical structures. With their low price, superb processability, and reliable pressure bearing capacity (≥16bar), they have become core components in the fields of energy, construction, and manufacturing.

MS Fittings

MS Fittings Features

MS means Mild Steel, with a carbon content of ≤0.25%. The core advantages of low carbon are:

  • Cost advantage: The raw material price is cheap, 30%-50% of stainless steel, suitable for large-scale projects;
  • Easy to process: It can be customized by laser cutting/welding, and the tolerance can be controlled within ±0.1mm;
  • High strength: It must pass the tensile test (≥300MPa) of GB/T 700-2006 standard and can withstand pressure of more than 16bar
  • Corrosion resistance: It can effectively resist corrosive media through surface treatment such as galvanizing, painting or hot-dip galvanizing.

Material specifications

Low carbon steel grade: Select low carbon steel that meets national standards (such as GB/T 700-2006) or international standards (such as ASTM A36) to ensure strength and plasticity;
Chemical composition: Carbon content ≤ 0.25%, sulfur, phosphorus and other impurities ≤ 0.04% (to avoid cracks during welding).

Size and Standard

Size standard: follow ANSI (American standard), DN (nominal diameter, such as DN100 = 4 inches) or JIS (Japanese standard);
Pressure level: select according to the working pressure of the pipeline system, such as PN16 (1.6MPa, suitable for low pressure), PN25 (2.5MPa, suitable for medium pressure).
