Carbon steel elbow pipe fittings are an indispensable part of the pipeline system, which is used to connect different parts of the pipeline and play the role of steering and changing the flow direction. When selecting carbon steel elbow fittings, the following factors need to be considered:
1. Pipe material
In the selection of carbon steel elbow pipe fittings, an element is the material of the pipe. Because pipes of different materials have different chemical compositions and physical properties, the elbow fittings selected should match the material of the pipe. Carbon steel elbow pipe fittings are suitable for general low pressure and high temperature pipes, but for some special pipes, such as high pressure, high temperature, corrosive or flammable and explosive media transmission pipes, you need to choose special materials made of elbow pipe fittings.
2. Angle and radius of elbow
The Angle and radius of carbon steel elbow fittings are also factors that need to be considered when selecting. The Angle of the elbow is usually 90 degrees, 45 degrees, 30 degrees and other different specifications, according to the actual requirements of the pipeline system, choose the right Angle of the elbow. The radius of the elbow also needs to be considered, the larger the radius, the smoother the turning part of the pipeline, the smaller the resistance.
