ASTM A350 Carbon Steel Forged Fittings

Fittings also called as adapter is majorly used into the piping system for connecting the straight sections of tubing or piping and adapt easily to various shapes and sizes. Also it is used for the purpose of regulating flow of fluid. The fittings are used at the plumbing for manipulating the water, liquid waste and gas conveyance into the commercial or domestic atmosphere, into the piping/tubing system. Low Temperature Carbon Steel ASTM A350 Socket Weld Fittings needs time, material, money, tool for installations and is essential part of tubing or piping systems. Drop forging is the processing technique in which the forging press provides the high pressure on the metal blanks to make it bring plastic deformation to acquire needed mechanical properties, specified sizes and shapes.

Forging eradicate as-cast loose defects that is produced at the time of the process of metal smelting and optimize microstructure. Due to intact metal flows, forging mechanical properties will be quite good as compared to casting in same element. Main fittings are including elbows, coupling, flanges, tees, union etc.
The steel is produced by using the techniques namely vacuum induction melting, open-hearth or basic oxygen. Molten steel shall be vacuumed treated before or at the time of ingot pouring. The material for the forging is consisting of forged or ingots, billets, strand cast bloom or bars. ASTM A350 Carbon Steel Forged Fittings are available in various types like elbow, equal tee, unequal tee, half coupling, full coupling, equal cross, unequal cross, etc.
