Pipes fittings are components that are used to fit pipes and other fittings together to make piping systems. Kanak Metal & Alloys is a large manufacturer and supplier of pipes fitting components. There are different shapes, types and grades of piping material. Bends are one of the pipes fitting types. The schedule 40 steel bends are one of the most commonly used schedules in the bends.
ASME B16.9 Pipe Bend
Schedule 40 Steel Pipe Bends
The schedules of the pipes govern the wall thickness, pressure containment and the diameter of the pipes according to standards. For example, the ASME B16.9 is a standard that governs pipes and fitting diameters ranging from ½ inches through 48 inches. These also correlate with DN15 through DN1200 specifications. The pipe bending radius chart can give you an idea of the pipes diameter and the bend radius. Depending on the radius of the bends, the pressure ratings can vary as well.
As a ASME B16.9 Pipe Bend Manufacturer we manufacture pipes of various sizes and grades. The most used stainless steel pipes and bends are made from 304 grade steel. There are also different shapes such as the square, the Oval Tubing Bends, hexagonal and rectangular pipes but the most used ones are the round bends. The Schedule 80 pipe bends manufactured by us are suitable for high pressure services. We provide our customers with the best quality pipes and fittings. Please contact us with your inquiries.
