Product Specification
The 3 inch 90 degree elbow carbon steel is a commonly used pipe fitting that is designed to change the direction of a pipeline.
Products Description
● Elbow Type: Long Radius 90-Degree Welding. This means that the elbow has a bending angle of 90 degrees with a larger bending radius, hence referred to as a long radius elbow. This type of elbow provides minimal resistance and pressure drop, making it suitable for high-flow and high-pressure pipeline systems.
● Material: Carbon Steel. Carbon steel is a commonly used material for piping applications, known for its strength and corrosion resistance. The ASTM SA-234 B grade specifies the requirements for carbon steel pipe fittings.
● Dimensions: Conforming to ASME B16.9. ASME B16.9 is a standard specification by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) for industrial pipe fittings. This specification ensures that the dimensions and manufacturing of pipe fittings comply with industrial standards for compatibility with other fittings and pipeline systems.
● Nominal Pipe Size: 3 inches. This indicates that the elbow is suitable for pipelines with a nominal size of 3 inches. The nominal pipe size refers to the internal diameter of the pipe, used to identify the pipe's size and capacity.
● Outside Diameter: 3.5 inches. This is the outer diameter of the elbow, ensuring compatibility with other pipe fittings for connection and installation.
● Inside Diameter: 2.9 inches. This is the inner diameter of the elbow, ensuring smooth flow and passage of fluids within the pipeline.
● Wall Thickness: 0.3 inches. The wall thickness refers to the thickness of the pipe's wall, which plays a crucial role in the pipe's strength and pressure resistance.
● Center to End (A): 4.5 inches. This measurement represents the distance from the center of the elbow to its end and is typically used for layout and design purposes in pipeline systems.
● Approximate Weight: 6.3 pounds. This is the estimated weight of the elbow, providing information for transportation, installation, and load calculations within the pipeline system.
Function
The 3 inch 90 degree elbow carbon steel is designed to change the direction of a pipeline, allowing smooth fluid flow at locations where turns are required. It finds wide application in industrial and construction sectors, particularly in oil and gas, chemical, water supply, drainage, and HVAC systems. The carbon steel material provides the required strength and corrosion resistance for reliable operation of the elbow. The long radius design minimizes fluid resistance and pressure drop, enhancing the efficiency of the pipeline system.
