Description
ASME B16.9 Pipe End Caps and Butt Weld Elbow
Fittings are important instruments that help join different piping systems together. Buttweld Fittings provide a unique way to join piping systems together. In this, fitting pieces of metal are placed over each other and welded. These fittings are unique because of the superior strength and excellent tolerances they exhibit in stress-induced environments. The Butt Weld Pipe Fittings provides options for manipulating the piping system in various directions or pressures. These fittings provide a leakproof and reliable piping connection. The Butt Weld Elbow is used to change the direction of flow of both fluids and gases in these systems. These elbows come in either short or long radius elbows. Their direction can be changed by 22.5, 45, 90, and 180 degrees. The Butt Weld 90 Elbow is known as a quarter bend elbow and is the most common elbow in the industry. These elbows possess superior tensile and yield strength. They allow for a smooth movement of flow through them. Reducing Elbow Buttweld are made up of openings of different sizes. This enables them to connect pipes of different sizes in a piping system.
A Butt Weld Tee is a pipe fitting that has 3 openings. Each opening can connect pipes together. This is used to increase the flow of fluids and gases or divert the flow in different piping systems. This Tee Butt Weld helps in connecting the fitting to a stud or the divider. They are widely used in the transportation of potable water and firefighting systems. These tees are available either as equal or reducing tees. The Butt Weld Reducing Tee has an opening that is smaller in comparison to the other two openings. These tees are common components in vacuum cleaners. In the Butt Weld Reducer, different sizes of pipes can be installed. These reducers are also used in systems wherein the pressure is increased or decreased significantly. They are available as either concentric or eccentric reducers.
The Butt Weld Pipe Cap is used as a protective device on pipes, which protects them during transportation from falls. It also acts as a device to prevent the pipes from getting corroded due to moisture build-up. Butt Weld Cap can also help eliminate air blocks in pipelines. They are available in lengths up to 700mm. Our experience makes use of the latest technology and top-quality raw materials while producing all the products of the ASME B16.9 Buttwelded Fittings.

Manufacturing Buttweld Fittings
The most appropriate manufacturing method of a product will be decided with consideration of its material, sizes, shape, use, standards and other properties.
There are numerous processes for manufacturing Elbows alone, several examples listed as follows.
TEES: Hydraulic Bulge method (Cold Forming)
After cutting and placing raw material into a die, the pipe is pressed as hydraulic pressure pushes out the branch. The Tee is pressed against the die, leaving the finished product to have a truly smooth outer surface.
TEES: Extrusion method (Hot Forming)
Using raw material with a bigger diameter than the finished product, the branch outlet is extruded from pipe while the main body is being pressed. The outlet’s wall thickness can also be adjusted as needed. Applied to Tees with large diameters, heavy wall thickness and/or special material with challenging workability that cannot be manufactured using the hydraulic bulge method.
TEES: Steel Plate Welding method
Manufacturing methods for Elbows, using steel plates as the raw material. Includes UO-method, Monaka method and Throat-welding method.
UO method: After raw material plate is cut out into a specially designed shape, it is shaped first into an U-shape using a die, then the branch pipe is formed and then shaped into an O-shape (tubular form) using another die, finished with a single weld on the opposite side of the branch pipe. Usually applied to large diameter items used in severe conditions.
“Monaka” method: Two pieces of raw material plates cut out symmetrically are press formed and welded together. Usually applied to large-diameter items.
Throat-welding method: Mainly used for stainless and non-metal items, this method is similar to UO-method but with the weld on the same side as the branch pipe and the “branch throat.” Usually applied to low-pressure, corrosion-resistant items.
