General Details

There are many types for steel pipe coupling, such as socket weld & threaded coupling, full & half coupling, straight and reducing coupling. All of them are available in Class 3000lb and 6000lb.

6000LB pipe fittings manufacturer supplies full and half coupling in socket weld and threaded types, they are attracted customers by good price and quality. We also deliver pipe fittings in short time since stock normal sizes product in our warehouse.

What are they used? To join pipes and fittings, valves together at ambient and high temperature / pressure systems.

  • Pipe couplings offer speed and efficiency when joining pipes and fittings.
  • Socket welding provides a strong joint in small diameter pipe systems.

Types of Steel Pipe Coupling

According to the connection methods, we can divided them into socket weld and threaded coupling.

According to the shape, we can call them as straight coupling and reducing coupling.

There are also full and half coupling. Both of them have same dimensions except the length. We can see below difference data sheet.

Full Coupling VS Half Coupling

Difference between Full and Half Coupling

Package of Carbon Steel Half Coupling

We marked all carbon steel half coupling with Size, Pressure, Material & Grade and Heat Number. The workers will sleeve ASTM A105 socket weld half couplings into plastic bag individually, line them in cartons, then packed all cartons into wooden cases, finally bundled wooden cases with nylon rope.

Shipping mark is stick on the outside of the package for easy identification.

Inspection of Socket Weld Coupling

Visual the surface of socket weld fittings body.

Measure the outside & inside diameter, wall thickness, and dimensions of the socket.

Check the marking ” 2″ 6000# ASTM A105 B16.11 Z168″ if correct.

Specification

Drawing & Specification for Socket Weld Half Coupling

Note:

  1. Couplings can be the concentric or eccentric type.
  2.  Considering the tolerance of outside diameter of pipe, the diameters of some socket bore can be a little larger than the ones specified in B16.11.
