Information for
SEAMLESS TEE-BRANCH FITTINGS
TECHNIQUE:
In the conventional method, the TEE is fabricated by welding a branch
to the main pipe on the profile made on its surface. The welding
is a weak point in that the joint cannot be completely checked using
X-ray & other method. Thus, ensuring the quality and reliability
of the weld against leaks in high pressure and Ultra High Vacuum
applications is rather difficult and hence the conventional method
poses limitations for such application. Further the job becomes
more and more difficult to fabricate if the TEE is to be made with
number of branches and access to welding all the pieces is a problem.
With the new technique, however, one can make TEE upto SIX Branches
ensurly leak proof joints. The BUTT, JOINT PROVIDES 100% CREVICE
FREE WELDING JOINTS. The area in which these fittings are favourably
used include pipe lines for chemical process industries, Pharmaceutical
and food Industries etc., where extreme cleanliness on the root
side of the weld is an essential requirement due to functional reason.
We offer our Product (TEE & Branches) in any ductile material including
S. S.
ADVANTAGES :
| 1) |
Tee / Branch
connection of equal & reducer type in thin as well as thick
wall tubulation is possible. |
| 2) |
Easy to
connect at a time in MULTIPLEWAY (TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE &
SIX WAY). |
| 3) |
Easier
cleaning, Reduced build up of product on the surface, Reduced
bacterial growth on the surface. |
| 4) |
Guaranteed
full penetration type burn through welding with autogenous welding
option. The latter offers the benefit of small weld size with
reduced heat input |
| 5) |
Ease of
welding with reduced welding skill since there is no manipulation
in welding parameters. |
| 6) |
Welding
can be mechanised thus increasing the productivity considerably.
|
| 7) |
For equal
size branch, the weld length is reduced by 25% and distortion
by 45% |
| 8) |
Moment
of inertia is higher by 10 X which correspondingly reduces the
angular distortion. |
| 9) |
100% fatigue
strength is ensured. Static strength is 4 X increased in view
of weld configuration. |
| 10) |
A Branch
in non standard length / configuration is possible by only one
welding as against three in conventional one, thus saving labour
& increasing reliability. |
| 11) |
Fluid flow friction is reduced due to smooth transition. |
| 12)
|
AESTHETICS
IS CONSIDERABLY IMPROVED |
