Stainless Steel Weld Fittings

Weld fittings are essential components used to permanently connect pipes and tubes by welding, creating strong, leak-proof seals. These types of fittings are ideal for applications that require high structural integrity and durability.

Common use cases include hydraulic systems, pipelines, and manufacturing processes. Industries frequently utilising weld fittings are food production, paper manufacturing, chemical processing, and construction.

Key Features

  • Material: Stainless steel
  • Dimensional Standards: These fittings are manufactured to meet recognised dimensional specifications ISO 8434-1 and DIN 2353.
  • Applications: Weld fittings can be used in a wide range of industrial applications such as paper manufacturing, food production,, chemical processing, construction and manufacturing.

Advantages

Heat/Corrosion Resistance: Stainless steel weld fittings can withstand high temperatures and resist corrosion from various substances which is crucial for applications in chemical processing or power generation.

Vibration-Resistant: Unlike some connections that can loosen over time, welded joints offer excellent resistance to vibration and mechanical stress which is important in systems that involve dynamic forces.

Suitability for High-Pressure Applications: Welding creates a continuous, seamless connection. This eliminates potential leak paths and makes weld fittings ideal for high-pressure systems, such as hydraulic systems or high-pressure pipelines.

Strength and Durability: Welded joints are as strong as, or stronger than, the joined materials when done correctly.

Permanent Connection: For applications where disassembly is not required, welded connections provide a permanent solution.

Leak-Proof: A correctly executed weld creates a leak-free seal, essential for handling hazardous or valuable materials.

FAQ's

These weld fittings can be used in hygienic or sanitary applications, but the quality of the weld is very important to avoid crevices where bacteria can accumulate.

Yes, the fittings comply with industry standards for hydraulic fittings ISO 8434-1 and DIN 2353.

Yes, these weld fittings are pressure rated. In this catalogue section you can see further details on the pressure ratings for each specific fitting.

No, weld fittings aren’t reusable as they are considered permanent connections and not designed for repeated reuse. Once welded, removing them requires cutting the pipe, and the fitting itself is not reusable in the same way a threaded fitting might be.

Yes, these weld fittings can be used in high-temperature environments, however the quality of the welding is important to ensure that it is suitable for this type of application.
