Long radius elbow and short radius difference
As the saying goes, what is a long radius elbow, what is a short radius elbow, what is the difference between a long radius elbow and a short radius elbow?The difference between the long radius elbow and the short radius elbow is that the short radius elbow has a short radius and the long radius elbow has a long radius. This is a simple understanding.Generally speaking, the medium flow resistance of the short radius elbow is large, and the resistance of the long radius elbow is small.The commonly used elbow is the long radius elbow series, the bending radius of the middle diameter is 1.5 times of the nominal diameter, the nominal diameter is less than 25 㘝38mm, the bending radius of the middle diameter of the short radius elbow series is 1.0 times of the nominal diameter.
Long radius elbow refers to the bending radius of the elbow is 1.5 times the diameter of the pipe. If it is greater than 1.5 times , it is the elbow. Short radius elbow refers to the curvature radius of the elbow is equal to the diameter of the pipe, which is often said to be 1 times the elbow.
Long radius elbow is a commonly used elbow pipe fittings. General customers default when ordering elbow is long radius elbow. Long radius elbow will be used in places with high pressure or high flow rate.Short radius elbows are generally used in low-pressure fluids where fire elbows are limited.
A long radius elbow has a radius of curvature equal to 1.5 times the outer diameter of the pipe, and a short radius elbow has a radius of curvature equal to the outer diameter of the pipe.
Above to the company simply for customers to introduce the long radius elbow and short radius elbow difference and different use.Hope to help every customer.All the customers who order our company's elbow pipe fittings will be provided with a low price to each customer who needs.
