45 Degree Elbow Configuration
45 Degree Turn
The elbow changes piping direction through a 45-degree angle for a more gradual directional transition.
Socket Weld Ends
Both ends are designed for socket weld connections to compatible piping.
Forged Construction
The forged steel body provides the material construction specified for this 3000# fitting series.
Construction Details
These 3000# socket weld elbows are manufactured from normalized forged steel conforming to ASME SA105N. The fitting dimensions conform to ASME B16.11.
The 45-degree configuration provides a gradual change in piping direction while maintaining compact forged steel socket weld connections at both ends.
