A socket weld full coupling connects two compatible pipe sections in a straight line.

The fitting provides a socket-weld connection on each end, allowing both adjoining pipe sections to be inserted into the coupling body before welding.

Confirm that the piping layout requires a standard full coupling rather than a reducing coupling, half coupling, or union before fabrication.

ASC identifies the 150# Cast 316 Stainless Socket Weld Full Coupling as Figure 3716CP.

The supplied Heavy Pattern catalog groups the 304 and 316 versions together as Figures 3714CP & 3716CP. Individual 316 item numbers use the S3716CP prefix followed by the applicable size coding.

No size, dimensional, part-number, packing, or weight tables have been added to this page.

This fitting uses cast 316 stainless steel construction.

The ASC / SCI stainless fitting information identifies 316 stainless castings as conforming to ASTM A351 ACI Grade CF8M.

The cast body incorporates socket-weld openings at both ends to create a permanent straight in-line piping connection.

This product is the 316 stainless steel version of the ASC / SCI 150# cast socket-weld full coupling family.

The 316 stainless casting designation is identified as ASTM A351 ACI Grade CF8M.

Confirm compatibility between the fitting material, adjoining pipe, process media, welding procedure, and overall system requirements before installation.

The full coupling uses socket-weld connections on both ends.

Each adjoining pipe section is inserted into the corresponding fitting socket before the connection is welded in place.

Proper pipe preparation, insertion, alignment, and welding procedures should be followed for the intended stainless steel piping system.

The supplied SCI Stainless Weld Fittings Catalog is included as an additional stainless fitting reference.

That catalog covers SCI stainless butt-weld fitting families and provides supporting stainless steel fitting information.

Because this product is a cast socket-weld full coupling, use the supplied ASC 150# Stainless Socket Weld information as the more product-specific reference for Figure 3716CP.

The supplied GetPipe.com Common Diameters and Wall Thicknesses PDF is included as a general adjoining-pipe reference.

Use it when checking nominal pipe size, outside diameter, and schedule-related wall-thickness information for compatible piping.

The pipe chart should not be interpreted as providing this coupling's socket depth, overall dimensions, fitting dimensions, or weight.

The 150# Cast Stainless Socket Weld Full Coupling 316 is intended for compatible stainless steel piping systems requiring a permanent straight in-line connection between two pipe sections using socket-weld joints.

Final suitability should be confirmed against 316 stainless steel material requirements, connection style, adjoining pipe, welding requirements, operating conditions, process media, and overall system design.

• Confirm that the installation requires a 150#, 316 stainless steel socket-weld full coupling.
• Verify that both adjoining pipe sections require matching coupling connections.
• Confirm compatibility between both fitting sockets and the adjoining pipe.
• Use appropriate pipe preparation, insertion, alignment, and welding procedures.
• Review the supplied ASC Socket Weld information as the product-specific reference, with the SCI stainless weld catalog and pipe chart used as supporting references.
