Types of Socket-Weld Fittings by Montex Tubes Industries

Socket Weld Elbows

• 90° Elbows: Enable directional changes in piping systems at a 90-degree angle, redirecting flow efficiently.
• 45° Elbows: Ideal for less abrupt changes in direction, suiting specific configurations in pipelines.
• Threaded Elbows: Offer flexibility for easy assembly and disassembly in threaded systems.

Socket Weld Tees

• Equal Tees: Facilitate branching connections where the inlet and outlet diameters are the same.
• Reducing Tees: Perfect for joining pipes of different sizes, maintaining a consistent flow.

Socket Weld Couplings

• Full Couplings: Provide a connection for small pipe diameters without altering the pipe size.
• Half Couplings: Connect smaller pipes to larger pipes or fittings, allowing transitions.

Socket Weld Union

• Straight Union: Join pipes or fittings of the same diameter and material, offering easy disassembly for maintenance.

Socket Weld Crosses

• Equal Crosses: Offer a perpendicular branching connection with four openings of the same size.
• Reducing Crosses: Suited for connecting pipes of different diameters, ensuring uniform flow in various directions.

Socket Weld Caps

• Pipe End Caps: Act as protective covers for pipe ends, sealing the line and preventing foreign matter from entering.

Socket Weld Plugs

• Square Head Plugs: Close the ends of pipes, offering easy access for maintenance or inspections.
• Hex Head Plugs: Provide a tight and secure closure for pipes and fittings.

Socket Weld Adapters

• Threaded Adapters: Facilitate connection between threaded and non-threaded pipes or fittings.
• Butt-Weld to Socket Weld Adapters: Enable joining of butt-weld fittings to socket weld components.

Specialized Socket-Weld Fittings

• Swage Nipples: Connect pipes of different sizes or changing end types within a pipe system.
• Lateral Outlets: Create branch connections at a 45° or 90° angle from the main pipe, offering flexibility.
