Carbon steel elbow is a common pipe connector used to change the direction of the pipe. In the industrial field, carbon steel elbow is widely used in petroleum, chemical, paper, metallurgy, electric power, aviation and other industries.
The specifications of carbon steel elbow are very diverse, mainly including the following aspects:
1. Elbow material: Carbon steel elbow is generally made of carbon steel material, common materials include ASTM A234 WPB, WPC, WPC, WP11, WP22 and so on. Different materials of carbon steel elbow has different mechanical properties and corrosion resistance, can meet the requirements of different working conditions.
2. Elbow diameter: The diameter range of carbon steel elbows is very wide, ranging from 1/2 inch of small caliber to 48 inches of large caliber. Common diameter specifications are 1/2", 3/4", 1", 1 1/4", 1 1/2", 2", 2 1/2", 3", 4", 5", 6", 8", 10", 14", 16", 18", 20", 24", "36", 42", 48", etc.
3. Elbow curvature radius: The curvature radius of carbon steel elbow is also an important part of the specification. The common radius of curvature is 1.5 times diameter, 2 times diameter, 3 times diameter, 4 times diameter, etc. The choice of the curvature radius depends on the needs of the pipe layout and the flow characteristics of the fluid.
