Dimensional Standards of Forged Fitting
Types of Forged Fitting
Elbow
A Forged Elbow is a high-pressure fitting used to change the direction of flow in piping systems. Available in 90-degree and 45-degree angles, these elbows are manufactured in socket weld and threaded end connections, ensuring leak-free operation under extreme pressure and temperature conditions. They are widely used in oil & gas, chemical processing, and power generation industries for compact, durable, and corrosion-resistant piping systems.

- Designed in Socket Weld and Threaded end types.
- Manufactured in pressure classes 2000#, 3000#, 6000#.
- Made from Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel, Alloy Steel, Duplex & Super Duplex, and more.
- Ideal for high-pressure and corrosive applications.
Tee
A Forged Tee is a type of high-pressure pipe fitting used to combine or divide fluid flow. Available in both Equal Tee and Reducing Tee types, it is designed for socket weld and threaded end connections. Forged tees are used in a variety of applications where compact piping and high strength are required—especially in oil & gas, petrochemical, and power generation industries.
Key Features

- Manufactured from Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel, Alloy Steel, and Special Alloys.
- Ideal for distributing or collecting fluid flow in various pipeline systems.
Cross
A Forged Cross is a four-way pipe fitting used to divide or combine flow in a piping system. It has one inlet and three outlets (or vice versa), all positioned at 90-degree angles. Available in both Equal Cross and Reducing Cross configurations, forged crosses are widely used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications. They are typically socket weld or threaded and are vital for process piping in refineries, petrochemical plants, and power stations.
Key Features
- Available in Equal and Reducing configurations for various piping needs.
- Socket weld and threaded ends for secure, high-pressure connections.
- Common pressure ratings: 2000#, 3000#, 6000#.
- Made from durable materials like Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel, and High-Alloy Steels.
- Used in critical flow distribution or collection systems in industrial plants.
Union
A Forged Union is a type of forged pipe fitting used to join two pipes while allowing easy future disconnection without cutting the pipe. It consists of three parts — a male end, a female end, and a nut — which securely compress and seal the connection. Unions are available in Socket Weld and Threaded forms and are widely used in applications requiring quick installation and removal, such as instrumentation, gas lines, and process piping.
Key Features
- Allows disconnection and re-connection without disturbing the piping system.
- Available in threaded (NPT/BSP) and socket weld ends for various connection types.
