A234 WPB

Carbon steel A234 WPb 45 Degree Short Radius Elbow is a standard alloy steel fitting commonly used for piping and conduit applications. Its chemical makeup includes B16, an alloy of chromium, carbon, molybdenum and vanadium. This particular combination enhances the corrosion resistance of the fitting relative to other higher-end alloys, such as stainless steel. The B16 also increases strength at higher temperatures, making it desirable for high-pressure applications requiring thermal stability. Additionally, the B16 properties reduce brittleness when exposed to frigid temperatures or vacuums compared to regular carbon steels. As a result of its unique composition, this fitting holds up well in many industries, including water and sewage treatment facilities, chemical plants, refineries, and food and beverage processing plants, among others.

Carbon Steel A234 WPb 45 Degree Short Radius Elbow is a form of butt weld pipe fitting that helps change the pipes' direction. This elbow fitting can solve various issues presented by traditional 90-degree elbows, such as having more room where the tubes are arranged in tight corners. Furthermore, due to its short radius, it has less turbulent flow at higher velocities allowing for smooth operation and superior performance. The A234 WPb grade material used in these fittings offers excellent strength and corrosion resistance properties making them suitable for moderate temperatures. Thanks to these advantageous properties, this elbow is commonly seen in industrial piping networks and is often used in commercial construction and repair applications.
