Carbon steel is a grade that is commonly seen in the piping industry, having a higher content of carbon in its composition. Carbon Steel Outlets are high-strength forged material that helps in creating integrally reinforced connections from the header pipe to the outlet pipe. They help make 45 to 90 degree turns to subsequent items. The Carbon Steel Weldolet is an olet belonging to the buttweld family. The weldolet is beveled at both ends allowing it to be easily welded from the run pipe to the branch pipe on either side. The shape of the weldolet allows it to give reinforcement to the branched pipe fixture.
A Carbon Steel Sockolet is similar to a weldolet, but the branch pipe is connected to the run pipe. These fittings are connected with a socket weld and are seen in small-sized fixtures. The Grade F11 Socket Weld Outled works well in high-temperature service systems. The low alloy steel material is inserted in the recessed area and welded in place. A Carbon Steel Threadolet has threads that allow it to be screwed on the fitting. These olets are preferred in low-pressure systems and generally follow the NPT standard grades.
A Carbon Steel Latrolet is designed to branch pipes at 45 degrees. These components are generally available with butt-weld connections, but socket and threaded connections of classes 3000# and 6000# can also be availed. The Carbon Steel Gr F22 Brazolet is generally available in a socket or threaded connections. These olets are available in sizes 6NB to 500NB that can be designed in different classes. Carbon Steel F12 Coupolet is seen in low-pressure systems and has a unique design. These devices are generally available with female NPT threads in class 300. The F91 CS Flexible Outlet can be easily bent or worked without damaging the components under any circumstances.
