Forged Fittings Manufacturer – Socket Weld Fittings, Threaded Fittings

ASME 16.11 Forged Fittings are available as Socket Weld Pipe Fittings and Threaded Pipe Fittings. Forged fittings are made from A105 (Carbon Steel), stainless steel, or nickel-base alloy. Forged Threaded Fittings are thicker, heavier, and are intended for heavy industrial use.

Cast-iron Pipe Fittings are available in 2000#, 3000#, 6000#, and 9000# pressure classes. These Forged Threaded Fittings are more common in 3000# and 6000# (90% of the time).

Forged Fittings Manufacturer – Socket Weld Fittings, Threaded Fittings: Forged Iron Threaded or Socket Weld Fittings are costlier in sizes bigger than 2 inches (ca. 5 cm) compared to their malleable iron or butt weld counterparts.

Threaded Pipe Fittings and Socket weld Pipe Fittings are available up to 4 inches (ca. 10 cm) nominal pipe size. See the table below for the pressure and temperature rating of those Fittings.

Forging steel is a process that makes very strong fittings. The heated steel is then machined into the forged steel fitting.
