Description
3000# Forged Steel Coupling NPT x SW
3000# Forged Steel NPT x Socket Weld Couplings provide a high-strength transition between threaded and socket weld piping systems. Manufactured from normalized forged carbon steel, these full couplings combine a female NPT connection on one end with a socket weld connection on the other.
The fittings conform to ASTM A105N-09, ASME SA105N, and ASME B16.11-2009. The normalized material provides enhanced hardness, strength, and machinability, and the manufacturing facility is ISO certified.

Forged Carbon Steel Construction
These 3000# couplings are manufactured from forged carbon steel conforming to ASTM A105N-09 and ASME SA105N requirements. Forged construction provides the strength required for demanding industrial piping applications.
NPT x Socket Weld Design
The coupling combines a female NPT threaded connection with a socket weld connection, providing a direct transition between threaded and welded piping components in a single fitting.
Normalized Material
The forged steel material is normalized for enhanced hardness, strength, and machinability. This heat-treatment process supports the mechanical properties required for high-pressure industrial piping installations.
