Description

Socket Welding Cross is a type of pipe fitting used to connect four pieces of pipe together. It has a cross shape and the pipe ends are welded into the socket holes of this fitting. This type of fitting is usually made from stainless steel, carbon steel or other heat-resistant materials to ensure durability and corrosion resistance.

Applications

Socket Welding Cross is widely used in high pressure and high temperature piping systems such as:

• Oil and gas pipeline system
• Chemical conduction system
• Electric Factory
• Water supply and wastewater treatment system
• Other industries require high durability and safety in the transportation of liquids or gases.

Standards

Socket Welding Cross complies with ASME B16.11. This standard specifies dimensions, tolerances, materials, testing and manufacturing procedures for socket welding fittings. The main points of this standard include:

• Nominal Pipe Size (NPS)
• Pressure Class
• Dimensional tolerance
• Material requirements
• Pressure testing and non-destructive testing methods
