316/316L Forged Stainless Steel Pipe Fitting, 45 Degree Elbow, Socket Weld, Class 3000, 1-1/4″ Female

This 45-degree elbow is a class 3000 forged stainless steel 316/316L pipe fitting with female socket weld ends for connecting pipes and fittings. The 45-degree elbow changes flow direction and the socket weld connections have internal recesses on the inside diameters to allow for a smooth bore and better fluid flow. This class 3000 pipe fitting can be used in high pressure applications and is made from forged stainless steel 316/316L for corrosion resistance. Class is a standard relating to tolerance, construction, dimension, and wall thickness, but it is not a direct measurement of maximum working pressure. This fitting meets standards ASTM A182, ASME SA182, and ANSI B16.11 for quality assurance.

Pipe fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. When purchasing pipe fittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape, size and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).
