A pipe fitting is defined as a part used in a piping system, to change direction or function, which is mechanically joined to the system.


Types and applications of Buttweld Fittings

● Welding a fitting to the pipe means it is permanently leakproof.

● The continuous metal structure formed between pipe and fittings adds strength to the system.

● The smooth inner surface and gradual directional changes reduce pressure losses and turbulence and minimize the action of corrosion and erosion.

● welded system utilizes a minimum of space.


APPLICABLE STANDARDS

●   AMI Buttweld fittings are manufactured, as a rule, in accordance with ASME standards B16.9 and B16.28 for dimensions, shapes, and tolerances.

●  Manufacturing methods, quality and so on are based upon ASTM A234, A403, and A420 specifications.

●  AMI has standardized dimensions and dimensional tolerances for Buttweld fittings of 50 inches and larger as no internationally recognized standards exist.
