Construction Details
The SCI Sanitary Weld End 45° Tube Bend (Long Radius) is identified as Fig. S77L2KS4 for 304 stainless steel and Fig. S77L2KS6 for 316/L stainless steel.
The long-radius configuration creates a smooth 45-degree directional change between two sanitary weld-end connections while maintaining a gradual flow path through the bend.
SCI sanitary tubing and fittings are produced to 3-A Sanitary Standards, with stainless steel sanitary tubing dimensions and materials conforming to ASTM A269/A270. SCI identification, heat number, and country-of-origin markings support material traceability.
