ASTM A815-WP UNS S31803 45 Degree BW Elbow Duplex Stainless Steel Butt Welding Elbow

Elbow Radius

The elbow radius typically refers to the radius of the curvature at the elbow joint. It is a measure used in engineering, especially in fields like piping design or mechanical engineering, to ensure proper bend radius for pipes or cables to prevent damage or excessive stress.

If the radius is larger than pipe diameter, R ≥ 1.5 Diameter, then we call it a long radius elbow (LR Elbow), applied for high pressure and high flow rate pipelines.

45 degree elbow of long radius

The pipe elbow is mounted between two pipes so that the fluid direction can be changed to 45 degrees. Compared to 90 degree elbow, 45 degree elbow produces less friction, and with the lower pressure.

45 degree elbow of short radius

SR Elbow in 45 degree is usually attached to copper, plastic, steel, cast iron and lead, and can also be connected to stainless and rubber fixtures. It is widely used in chemical, food, water supply facilities, electronic industry, chemical pipelines, horticulture, agriculture production, solar equipment pipelines, air conditioning pipeline and other fields.

Class WP Fitting Categorizations

Class WP fittings are subdivided into three subclasses: Classes WP-S, WP-W. and WPWX. They are manufactured to the requirements of ANSI BI6.9, BI6.11, BI6.28, or MSS Standard Practice SP-79, and they have pressure ratings compatible with 9.2.

Class WP-S fittings are those manufactured from seamless product by a seamless method of manufacture (marked with class symbol WP-S);

Class WP-W fittings contain welds where the fitting fabrication or construction welds have been radiographed (marked with class symbol WP-W);

Class WP-WX fittings are those which contain welds where alI welds have been radiographed (marked with class symbol WP-WX).
