The Purpose and Classification of Pipe Fittings
High pressure fittings are used in specific environments such as high-pressure steam equipment, chemical high-temperature and high-pressure pipelines, pressure vessels in power plants and nuclear power plants, high-pressure boiler accessories, etc. Pipe fittings are a general term for the components that play a role in connecting, controlling, changing direction, diverting, sealing, supporting, etc. in pipeline systems.
Classification of Pipe Fitting Usage
1.The fittings used for interconnecting pipes include flanges, couplings, pipe clamps, clamps, throat clamps, etc
2.Pipe fittings that change the direction of the pipe: elbows
3.Pipe fittings for changing pipe diameter: variable diameter (reducing pipe), reducing elbow
4.Add fittings for pipeline branches: tee, four-way
5.Pipe fittings used for pipeline sealing: gaskets, raw tape, hemp thread, flange blind plates, pipe plugs
6.Pipe fittings used for pipeline fixation: snap rings, drag hooks, lifting rings, brackets, brackets, pipe clamps, etc
Pipe fittings are components that connect pipes into pipelines. According to the connection method, it can be divided into four categories: socket fittings, threaded fittings, flange fittings, and welded fittings. Use materials similar to those used for pipes.
