Wholesale Industrial Pipe Four-Way Cross Fittings Factory, Quotes
Product Description
1. Product Introduction
Our 4-way pipe crosses (also called cross fittings) provide perpendicular fluid distribution in complex piping networks. Designed for high-pressure systems, they are essential in:
- Oil & gas manifolds
- Chemical processing plants
- Fire protection sprinkler systems
- HVAC distribution lines
Key Features
4-directional flow control – Equal or reducing branch options
Zero-leak construction – Full penetration welds for SCH80+ applications
Anti-corrosion materials – 304/316L SS, CS ASTM A234, Duplex 2205

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the main function of a 4-way pipe cross?
A 4-way pipe cross (or cross fitting) provides perpendicular fluid distribution in complex piping networks, allowing flow control in four distinct directions with equal or reducing branch options.
Q2: What size range and wall thicknesses are supported?
Our cross fittings cover a size range from 1/2" to 24" (DN15 to DN600), with wall thickness specifications including SCH10S, SCH40, SCH80, and XXS.
Q3: Which materials and coatings are available for anti-corrosion?
We offer anti-corrosion materials such as Stainless Steel (304/316L), Carbon Steel (ASTM A234), and Duplex 2205. Special protective coatings like Xylan and PTFE are also available for higher chemical resistance.
Q4: What pressure ratings and manufacturing standards are followed?
They conform to pressure ratings from Class 150 up to Class 2500 (ANSI/ASME) and adhere to industry standards including ASME B16.9, MSS-SP-75, and DIN 2617.
Q5: How is quality assurance verified for critical applications?
Quality assurance is validated through 100% RT Radiographic Examination for SCH160+, material traceability via PMI test reports, and compliance certifications including ISO 9001:2015, PED 2014/68/EU, and NACE MR0175.
