What is class 3000 fitting?
Class 3000 Socket Weld Fittings are covering Stainless Steel 90 Degree Elbow, Straight & Reducing Tee, Cross, Steel Pipe Coupling, Cap, Union & Lateral. They are produced to as standard of BS3799 and ANSI B16. 11 and used only in conjunction with ANSI Pipe and are available in the same size range.
What schedule is a 3000 fitting?
schedule 80
Loosely, they are related to 3000 pound is roughly schedule 80, extra heavy; the 6000 pound is roughly schedule 160. Socket weld fittings are available from 1/2 inch all the way to 4 inch nominal pipe size.
What is the pressure rating of 3000 fittings?
The 3000 pound threaded fitting has a pressure rating of 3000 pound maximum pressure rating.

What is a socket weld?
A Socket Weld is a pipe attachment detail in which a pipe is inserted into a recessed area of a Valve, fitting or flange. In contrast to buttweld fittings, Socket Weld fittings are mainly used for small pipe diameters (Small Bore Piping); generally for piping whose nominal diameter is NPS 2 or smaller.
What is class 150 pressure rating?
approximately 270 PSIG
Example of Pressure Rating For example, a Class 150 flange is rated to approximately 270 PSIG at ambient conditions, 180 PSIG at approximately 400°F, 150 PSIG at approximately 600°F, and 75 PSIG at approximately 800°F. In other words, when the pressure goes down, the temperature goes up and vice versa.
What is the difference between pipe class and pipe schedule?
“Schedule” PVC pipe is an older style of labeling pipe based on the standard dimensions of ductile iron and steel pipe ie. “Class” pipe is a different labeling system. Rather than categorization by wall thickness, the “class” designation rates the internal pressure that the pipe can take instead.
What is a socket weld coupling?
What is socket weld flange?
Socket-weld pipe flanges are typically used on smaller sizes of high pressure pipes. These pipe flanges are attached by inserting the pipe into the socket end and applying fillet weld around the top. This allows for a smooth bore and better flow of the fluid or gas inside of the pipe.
What type of weld is a socket weld?
Socket weld (the fillet weld) resists around 1/2 the strength of butt welding. So it is mainly used for small pipeline (Small Bore Piping) with diameters NPS 2 or smaller. Butt weld keeps better strength, good for high pressure or high temperature pipelines.
Can you XRAY socket welds?
The answer to your question is “NO” because radiographic test can be used on socket welds.
What kind of pipe fittings are Class 3000?
High-Pressure Aluminum Threaded Pipe Fittings Also known as Class 3000 fittings, these have the highest pressure rating of all the aluminum pipe fittings we offer.
Which is Better Class 3000 or butt weld fittings?
A galvanized finish gives these fittings better corrosion resistance than our plain steel high-pressure fittings. Also known as Class 3000 fittings. Socket-connect fittings are easier to weld than butt-weld fittings because the fitting doesn’t need to align perfectly to the pipe. Slide the pipe into the socket and weld.
How are socket welds and threaded fittings connected?
Socket weld fittings are connected to pipes by fillet welds, whereas threaded fittings are screwed onto the pipe (or vice-versa). A socket weld fitting (left side) and a threaded fitting (right side).
What are socket weld and threaded fittings for ASME b16.11?
The ASME B16.11, MSS SP 75, MSS SP 83, MSS SP 95 specifications cover forged fittings (socket weld and threaded) to fit ASME B36.10 and ASME B36.19 carbon, alloy, stainless steel and nickel alloy pipes of small bore size.
