Description
Sch10 Stainless Steel Weld Type "C" Stub End MSS
Schedule 10 Stainless Steel Weld Type "C" Stub Ends are designed for use with standard lap joint flanges and slip-on flanges in compatible stainless steel piping systems. The Type "C" configuration uses a flared lap with a rounded inside edge at the I.D. of the lap.
If required, the inside radius can be made nearly square. The lap thickness is approximately 75% of the pipe wall thickness. These Schedule 10 fittings are manufactured from stainless steel raw material conforming to ASTM A312 and are produced and tested to recognized ASTM, ASME, ANSI, and MSS standards.

Type "C" Stub End Design
A Type "C" stub end is designed for use with standard lap joint flanges and compatible slip-on flanges. The stub end is welded to the pipe while the flange remains mechanically independent around the assembly.
This configuration provides installation flexibility and allows the flange to be positioned independently for easier alignment with mating components.
Flared Lap Configuration
The lap on a Type "C" stub end is flared, creating a rounded edge at the inside diameter of the lap.
Where required, this radius can be produced nearly square. The required lap geometry should be confirmed before ordering when a specific inside-edge profile is needed.
Lap Thickness
The lap thickness is approximately 75% of the pipe wall thickness for this Type "C" configuration.
This differs from other stub end styles and should be considered when confirming flange compatibility, dimensional requirements, and project specifications.
Schedule 10 Construction
This listing is specifically for Schedule 10 Type "C" stub ends. Schedule 10 material is manufactured and tested in accordance with ASTM A403 and ASME SA403/SA403M.
Confirm the mating pipe schedule, nominal size, and wall thickness before ordering or welding the fitting into the piping system.
