Pipe Fittings-types of pipe fittings for sale
Pipe Fittings
Pipe fittings are components that connect segments in a series, offset, multiport, or mounted configuration. Pipe fittings come in many types of materials and sizes. Pandapipe provides you with carbon steel pipe fittings. There are many kinds of pipe fittings, including flanges, elbows, tees and quads, valves and so on. Pipe fittings have direct influence on the safe and stable operation of pipeline system. On the other hand, steel pipes, fittings, flanges, bolts and nuts, washers, valves and pressure elements of other pipe components make up the entire pipe system.
Pipe Fitting Specifications
Pandapipe strictly follows the requirements of different national and regional standards, using high-quality steel raw materials to manufacture pipe fittings with excellent performance and quality. A full range of pipe fittings are available. And provide you with surface coatings such as glazing, oiling, hot dip galvanizing to improve the durability and corrosion resistance of pipe fittings.

Types of pipe fittings & applications of pipe fittings
Pipe fitting- Elbow
To alter the angle or direction of a pipe run. 90-degree and 45-degree rotations are the most prevalent. The fitting’s sweep specifies how quickly a transition or change in direction occurs.
Pipe fitting- Tee
Allows for branch lines since it is shaped like the letter T.
Used to connect two straight lengths of the same diameter pipe.
pipe fitting- Reducer
Used to connect pipes of varying sizes. Changes in diameter gradually.
pipe fitting- Valve
Control devices for the movement of liquid or gas through or from a pipe. (For example, compression valves, ball valves, sleeve-cartridge valves, ceramic disc valves, and so on.)

Connection Types of Pipe Fitting
Butt Weld Fittings
Butt welded pipe fittings use welding technology to connect two or more pipe components together through the inner weld of the pipe. Including weld, fusion zone and heat affected zone.
Fusion welding uses a high-temperature heat source to heat and melt the pipe fitting material at the joint.
Weld metal, fusion zone, heat affected zone and base metal constitute a welded connection.
The temperature and heat concentration of the heat source used in different welding methods are different.
Therefore, the size of the heat affected zone and the microstructure of the welded connection, as well as the quality of the joint, will vary.
In addition, the mechanical properties and applicable environments of different welding methods are also different.
Therefore, changes in the purity of welding metals or the concentration of harmful pollutants in welding lead to changes in welding performance.
Socket Weld Fittings
Socket welded pipe fittings extend the pipe into the valve body for welding.
After forming, the shape is similar to that of an internal thread connection.
Carbon steel tubing with a diameter of less than 2″ is used for socket welding.
Inserting the pipe into the socket of the pipe fitting, reaching the socket placement stage, and then welding an argon protective fusion ring along the contact between the socket end of the pipe fitting and the pipe’s outer wall are the specific connection methods.
During the welding operation, there was no use of welding wire (replaced by the socket end edge of the pipe fitting).
It’s linked to a specific sort of welding. Pipe connection method with “no joint connection.”
