Construction Details
SCI 3000# socket weld 90° elbows are manufactured from forged stainless steel conforming to ASTM A182 Grade F304/304L.
The socket weld ends conform to ASME B16.11 and accept compatible pipe ends for welded assembly. Once properly fitted and welded, the elbow provides a permanent connection without threaded joints.
The 90-degree configuration changes piping direction at a right angle while maintaining a compact forged fitting design for compatible Class 3000 piping systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is this 3000# socket weld 90° elbow used for?
It provides a 90-degree directional change in compatible socket weld stainless steel piping systems.
What is the SKU family for this fitting?
The GetPipe.com SKU family for this 3000# 304L stainless steel socket weld 90° elbow is S5034E.
What material is this elbow made from?
It is manufactured from forged 304/304L stainless steel conforming to ASTM A182 Grade F304/304L.
What connections does the elbow use?
The fitting uses socket weld connections at both ends.
What standard applies to the socket weld fitting?
The forged stainless steel fitting dimensions and socket weld configuration conform to ASME B16.11.
How does a socket weld elbow connect to the pipe?
The pipe end is inserted into the fitting socket and then joined by an external fillet weld using the appropriate welding procedure.
Does 3000# mean the fitting is rated exactly 3,000 PSI in every application?
No. Class 3000 identifies the fitting pressure class. Allowable system pressure depends on factors including material, temperature, pipe, joints, and applicable piping code.
What should I confirm before ordering?
