Applications Of High Pressure Forged Fittings
Socket-weld fittings and Threaded fittings are the two main types of Stainless Steel 317/ 317L Forged Fittings. Fillet welds connect socket-weld fittings to pipes, whereas threaded fittings require the pipe to be screwed onto the fittings. It is made from solid steel blocks that are machined to the final required shape within the tolerances set by the relevant requirements. The fitting class represents the maximum pressure that the unit can withstand. The high level of stress bolting two forged fittings together with a gasket between them generates forged fittings.
