ASME B16.9 Cross
Stainless Steel Equal Cross Dimensions And Copper Cross Pipe Fittings Weight Chart.

What Is Equal Cross?
ASME B16.9 Cross belongs to the standard of pipe fittings that range from ½ inch to 48 inches in diameter. A cross is a type of pipe fitting that has four openings on one connection. The fitting looks like a cross and connects four different pipes into one point. Due to this reason, the fluid flow could be interrupted with temperature differences as the shape is mechanically unstable for fluid flow planes. ASME B16.9 Equal Cross Fitting is a cross with all four arms of it having the same diameter and connecting to four pipes of the same diameter as well.

Why Use Stainless Steel Equal Cross In Larger Pipe Lines?
This is the most common type of cross. Unequal cross is also available but is not very common in applications. Asme B16.9 Crosses range from ½ inch to 48 inches in nominal diameters and are used with larger pipe lines. The Equal Cross Fitting Suppliers sell crosses of different sizes, material and mechanical properties. The Cross Fitting Dimensions are decided by the connecting pipes, the expected maximum pressure and the material used.
What is The Use of B16.9 Equal Cross?
Cross Pipe Fitting Dimensions play an important role in deciding the strength and stability. When the same size pipes are connected and fluids flow from one direction, it will be divided into three directions. Cross Tee Pipe Fitting Dimensions become problematic when fluid flows in by three directions and is expected to move out in one direction. Equal Cross Fitting Suppliers produce different kinds such as Ansi B16.9 Pipe Cross Fittings and the Stainless Steel Buttweld Equal Cross Fittings which are stronger.
Cross Equal Fittings Use In High-Pressure Environments?
The SS Equal Cross Fitting is the most commonly used material for cross. The Asme B16.9 Equal Cross is used with much larger pipe systems such as water lines. Buttweld Lateral Cross has connections in lateral angles and is used only with specific applications. The stronger Carbon Steel Butt Weld Equal Cross is used in known high pressure environments. All Cross Pipe Fittings are expensive than their tee counterparts.
