The piping industry is composed of different fixtures that propel them to connect a wide range of equipment for optimum flow of fluids. A Stainless Steel Coupling is a short length of a tube that allows it to be connected to different piping components. These couplings provide stability during vigorous movement of the flow. The Stainless Steel Pipe Coupling possesses superior tensile strength and are very durable. These couplings have enhanced resistance to corrosive media and oxidative reducers. They are designed in socket weld, threaded weld, and one end being socket weld while the other is threaded.
A Stainless Steel Full Coupling is a fitting that is utilized in connecting a pipe to a pipe or to a swage or nipple. Similar to this, a Stainless Steel Half Coupling is seen in small-bore branching from a large bore pipe. The coupling has a thread or socket type on one end and the other end can be directly welded to the fixture.The Stainless Steel Threaded Coupling is a versatile grade of fittings that possesses threads allowing it to align to subsequent fixtures. These threads are part of the NPT threaded grade. SS Union Coupling is a device that allows the pipework to be readily separated and later connected back without dissembling of the working system. Most SS couplings are designed in the 304 and 316 specifications.
The SS 304 Coupling is designed with a superior composition of nickel and chromium, allowing it to possess enhanced corrosion and oxidation resistance properties in different environments. The 316 Stainless Steel Coupling has slightly higher corrosion resistance and added tolerance to pitting due to the presence of molybdenum along with chromium and nickel content. These couplings can be availed in different shapes and sizes to suit different requirements.
