PED Approved Stainless Steel Socket Weld Unequal Cross Manufacturer In India.
What Is Socket Weld Reducing Cross?
Socket Weld Reducing Cross is a four way pipe fitting used to connect four pipes. These have one inlet and three outlets or three inlets and one outlet. The Socket Weld Reducing Cross Dimensions depend on the number of inlets and outlets, the material and the nominal pipe size as well. Socket Weld Unequal Cross means the inlets and the outlets are not of the same size. If there are more outlets, they are all of the same size but less than the inlet. If there are more inlets, then the outlet is smaller than the inlets. They are usually used in low pressure, low cost systems with smaller pipe sizes. Their pressure containment can be in 2000, 3000 or 6000 classes like in the Bs3799 Socketweld Forged Unequal Cross

Socket Weld Unequal Cross Use In Low-Pressure Applications?
Forged Socket Weld Unequal Cross has unequal openings; usually one in one dimensions and all other three in another. The strength can be managed by using different materials such as the Ss 310 Socket Weld Reducing Cross. The applications of Ansi B16.11 Forged Socket Weld Cross is limited to low pressure, low cost and low liquid flow systems due to the fluid mechanics in a 4 way fluid flow. The connection becomes unstable under high pressures and could alternate the direction of fluid flow. Asme B16.11 Forged Socket Weld Unequal Cross therefore is applied in water supply, gas and other domestic purposes and smaller diameter pipe lines. For special cases, there are higher pressure versions such as the Forged Unequal Cross 3000lb Socket Weld which are designed specifically to manage the conditions under the special requirements.

The material can be forged in the production such as the Socket Weld Forged Unequal Cross to ensure more strength at connection. In application instances where a reducing tee, reducing nipple or reducing bend and elbow could not be used, the Stainless Steel Socket Weld Reducing Cross could be used. Usually, the reducing cross is not the first choice; other fittings are.
