Branch outlets is a kind of reinforced pipe fittings designed specially for connection of branch pipes. It is a kind of ideal alternative pipe fittings for traditional pipe fittings for branch pipes connections, such as reducing tees or strengthening pipe sections. The design of branch outlets can effectively reduce stress concentration, providing overall reinforcement effect and ensuring the safety and reliability of the connection.
The types of Branch Outlet
Branch outlet can be divided into different types according to different connection method, such as butt welding branch outlet, socket welding branch outlet, and threaded branch outlet, etc. Different types of branch outlets have different application environments.
Butt welding branch outlet is the most common branch outlets, with a specially designed groove at the end, which is easy to connect with straight pipes by butt welding process. It is suitable for high pressure, high temperature, and large diameter pipelines
Socket welding branch outlet is basically the same as the butt welding branch outlet, but the branch connection using socket welding process, which is suitable for situations where flexible connection is required. In additions, compared with the butt welding outlet, it is easier to install and disassembly.
For threaded branch outlet, the branch connection adopts a threaded method, which does not require welding and is suitable for application scenarios where convenient install and disassembly are required.
