SOCKETWELD ELBOW

Industrial Pipe Fittings

Coating: RAW/WARNISH

Available Size: 1/2" - 6"

🔎 What It Is:

A Socket Weld Elbow** is a pipe fitting used to change the direction of flow (typically by 90° or 45°) in a small bore piping system. It features socket-type ends where the pipe is inserted and fillet welded, ensuring a strong and leak-proof connection.

Socket weld fittings are ideal for high-pressure and high-temperature systems, especially where a compact, reliable joint is required.
