Buy Industrial Steel Short Radius Elbow Manufacturer, Product

The threaded joint refers to the pipe connector with thread, is the most common kind of pipe fittings in industry and life, the threaded joint makes the connection of the pipe more simple, disassembly and replacement is also easier, greatly saving the cost of pipe connection. Carbon steel elbows are metal pipe fittings that change the direction of the lines on carbon steel pipes. The connection mode is wire buckle and welding. According to the Angle, 45° and 90°180° are the most commonly used, Application : chemitry industry , oil and gas industry etc.  

Product Description

Elbow is a kind of connecting pipe commonly used in pipeline installation. It connects two pipes with the same or different nominal diameters to make the pipeline turn at a certain angle. In the pipeline system, the elbow is a pipe fitting that changes the direction of the pipeline. Among all the pipe fittings used in the piping system, the proportion is the largest, about 80%.
Usually, different forming processes are selected for elbows with different materials or wall thicknesses. At present, the commonly used seamless elbow forming process has hot push, stamping, extrusion, etc.
