Weldolet 1'': High-Strength Branch Solution for Pipelines
In industrial installations, when a smaller diameter branch (outlet) is required from the main pipeline, maintaining the pipeline's integrity and mechanical strength is crucial. Weldolet is a welded, reinforced fitting used to create such branch connections in pipelines. With a 1-inch (DN25) size, it allows smaller diameter pipes to be safely connected to the main.
What is Weldolet and What Does It Do?
Weldolet is a special type of fitting that is welded to the main pipeline, creating a branch outlet at a 90-degree angle. Unlike traditional welded tee connections, it eliminates the need to drill a large hole in the main pipe. Weldolet features a specially curved structure that fits onto the pipe surface and welds to this surface, creating a very strong and leak-proof connection.
Main Functions:
Pipe Branch: Provides a smaller diameter (in this case 1") outlet from the main pipeline (e.g. 4", 6", 8").
Strength and Safety: Strengthens the connection point by preserving the mechanical integrity of the main pipe, especially in high pressure and high temperature systems.
Leak-proof: Thanks to the permanent welded connection, the risk of leakage is minimized.
Features and Advantages of Weldolet:
High Pressure Resistance: It is more resistant to high pressure fluctuations because it contains fewer weld seams and fewer stress points compared to welded tees.
Easy Installation: Simply drill a small hole in the main pipe. Weldolet's perfect fit makes welding easier.
Cost and Space Savings: Takes up less space than standard tees and creates less stress on the pipeline.
Material Variety: Generally manufactured from carbon steel (ASTM A105) or stainless steel (AISI 304, AISI 316) . Material selection is based on the type of fluid and environmental conditions.
Wide Application Area: Used in many areas from the oil and gas industry to power plants.
Standardization: They are produced in accordance with international standards such as ASME B16.11.
Weldolet Usage Areas:
Power Plants: High pressure steam and water lines.
Oil and Gas Industry: Refineries, natural gas facilities, pipelines.
Chemical and Petrochemical Plants: Lines where chemical fluids are transported.
Industrial Installations: All types of piping systems requiring high strength and sealing.
