Welding Outlets

Welding Outlets is a certified woman-owned manufacturer of high pressure piping components that are available in over 40 grades of steel. The piping components we produce are known in the ASME code as branch connections. Branch connections (WOI "Branchettes") are used in a wide array of industries including pipeline, refinery/chemical, power plants, and shipbuilding, as well as food processing, beverages, pulp and paper, and pharmaceuticals.

These Welding Outlets are manufactured from high grade corrosion resistant metal alloy. These outlet fittings offered by us find extensive usage in pipe fitting applications of socket weld and screwed connection types. We supply these outlet fittings according to the drawings and samples of the clients. These are suitable for variety of heavy duty applications in various industries.

Type and Construction

Welding outlets are in accordance with EEMUA–146, Section 6. The components are manufactured by hot forging and machining from extruded bars (solid or hollow).

Dimensions

The dimensions and tolerances are suitable for welding to seamless and seam-welded pipes to EEMUA – 144. The branch size covered is from ½ in./ 16 mm to 16 in./419 mm. Other branch sizes are available on request. The welding outlets covered are suitable for application to header sizes from ½ in./16 mm to 38 in./965 mm. The sizes of the header pipes for a given branch size are consolidated in accordance with MSS SP-97, Section 3.3 and Figure 1, whereas the gap distance between the header pipe radius and the fitting inlet radius doesn’t exceed 1/16 in./1.6 mm. The design of the self reinforced connection is in accordance with ASME B31.3 Section 304.3 suitable for both 16 and 20 bar pressure ratings. The additional design feature is the smooth entry into the connection to reduce the turbulences. The overall dimensions are based on EEMUA -146.
