4. ASME B16.11 Forged steel fittings

Threaded Half Coupling

Leave us a message​

Description

Threaded Half Coupling is a type of pipe fitting commonly used in piping systems to connect two pieces of pipe together or to connect pipes to other equipment. It has a threaded design on only one end, the other end can be welded or threaded. The material is usually made of stainless steel, carbon steel, or high heat and pressure resistant alloys.

Applications

Threaded Half Coupling is widely used in various industries, including:

  • Oil and gas industry : Used in oil and gas pipeline systems.
  • Chemical industry : In chemical piping systems, corrosion resistance.
  • Energy industry : Used in power plants, cooling systems.
  • Food processing industry : Used in food and beverage pipeline systems.
  • Pharmaceutical Industry : Used in pharmaceutical manufacturing pipeline systems.

Standards 

ASME B16.11 is the American Society of Mechanical Engineers standard for threaded and butt-welded fittings in piping systems. This standard covers the dimensional requirements, quality, materials, and test methods for fittings such as Threaded Half Coupling.

  • Size : Various, from 1/8 inch to 4 inch or larger depending on requirements.
  • Material : Carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy.
  • Working pressure : Designed to withstand high pressure.
  • Standards : Meet international standards such as ASTM, ASME, DIN, JIS.

Note: These dimensions and thicknesses are based on Schedule 80 (Sch 80) standard. Pipe wall thickness may vary according to different standards such as Schedule 40, Schedule 160, or as per customer specific requirements.

Other Size Standards:

  • Schedule 40 (Sch 40): Typically used for lower pressure applications. Pipe wall thickness is thinner than Schedule 80.
  • Schedule 160 (Sch 160): Typically used for very high pressure applications. Wall thickness is thicker than Schedule 80.
