WP5

Alloy Steel WP5 Cap Pipe Fittings are made of a unique material because they combine metallic and non-metallic elements. This alloy consists primarily of iron, nickel, manganese, chromium, tungsten and molybdenum in varying percentages, depending on the desired strength and corrosion resistance properties. As a result of its chemical composition, this type of alloy steel is more vital than other stainless steel alloys and is used in engineering projects like oil refineries and ships where strength and durability are essential requirements.

Alloy Steel WP5 Cap Pipe Fittings are most commonly used in the oil and gas industries due to their strength and durability. The steel alloy comprises about 95% iron and 5% carbon, combined with a small amount of manganese, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur, chromium and nickel. The WP represents a wrought product from a process that involves pressing or hammering into shape. It is highly resistant to corrosion and high-temperature oxidation because it contains chromium as an alloying element. Furthermore, it has excellent thermal fatigue strength, which makes it ideal for use in pressurized systems at elevated temperatures. It also possesses superior high-temperature properties that enable the long term serviceability of piping components. As a bonus, Alloy Steel WP5 Cap Pipe Fittings don't require any maintenance.
