Frequently Asked Questions
What pressure class is this half coupling?
This is a 3000# forged steel threaded half coupling.
What material is the fitting made from?
It is manufactured from normalized forged carbon steel conforming to ASTM A105N-09 and ASME SA105N.
What type of connection does the half coupling have?
The fitting provides a female NPT threaded connection.
What is a threaded half coupling used for?
A threaded half coupling is commonly used to create a branch connection, equipment tie-in, or threaded connection point in a fabricated piping system.
How is a half coupling different from a full coupling?
A full coupling is designed to join two threaded piping components in line, while a half coupling provides a single threaded connection point and is commonly incorporated into fabricated piping assemblies.
Are these fittings normalized?
Yes. The forged carbon steel is normalized for enhanced hardness, strength, and machinability.
What fitting standard applies to this half coupling?
The forged steel threaded fitting conforms to ASME B16.11-2009.
