Seamless Elbow Schedule 80
Seamless elbow schedule 80 is a type of pipe fitting used in industrial piping systems. It functions as a connection point between two pipes or tubes to allow a change in pipe or tubing direction. Schedule 80 seamless elbows are used to join two sections of a pipe at an angle and are available in several different angles and diameters. Elbows are machined in accordance with ASME B16.11 and ANSI/ASME B1.20.1.
Features of Seamless Elbow Schedule 80
Seamless elbow schedule 80 is manufactured from carbon steel, stainless steel, or other alloy steels. It has a pressure rating up to 2,500 psi depending on the diameter and construction. Some advantages of this type of elbow include:
- Excellent corrosion resistance
- High-temperature performance
- Increased pressure rating
- Lower overall cost of piping systems due to reduced maintenance and replacement costs
- Eliminates potential water hammer effect
- Reduces flow turbulence
- Better flow rate and pressure control
Common Uses of Seamless Elbow Schedule 80
Seamless elbow schedule 80 is widely used in the oil and gas, petrochemical, water, and general industrial industries. They can be found in pipes that process or transport chemicals, heat transfer equipment, or in piping forwater and other liquids. They are also used as steam outlet elbows in controlling systems and chemical equipment. Seamless elbow schedule 80 can be found in power generation equipment and marine applications.
Specifications of Seamless Elbow Schedule 80
Seamless elbow schedule 80 are made to the following specifications:
- Size range: ½” to 48”
- Wall thickness range: 1/8” to 20”
- Pressure ratings at high temperatures: up to 250 psi
- Threaded (NPT) and socket weld (SW) connections
