Its main function is to connect smaller branch pipes to larger main pipes, serving to reinforce them. For common branch pipes smaller than DN50, half-elbow joints are used, while for those larger than DN50, reducer tees are required.
It’s actually the control panel; I agree with what was said on the 2nd floor
Why isn’t the term ‘half pipe fitting’ included in the standards? GB/T12459
Could you draw a simple diagram to illustrate the half-tube style? Also eager to learn*to study*
Reply 6# jac168 It’s in GB/T14383

Their function is to serve as connections for branch pipes, but the diameter of the branch pipe fittings is larger than that of half-pipe joints. Some of them use socket welding, while others employ butt welding; the maximum diameter that can be achieved depends on factors such as pressure and the type of medium involved !
Half-pipe fittings and branch bases are completely different things! Half couplings are generally of the socket-type, in accordance with standards such as SH3410 or ASME B16.11; they resemble small short tubes, with diameters typically equal to or less than DN40 (although standards allow up to DN80). There are various types of pipe ends: socket-type, threaded, and welded types, in compliance with standard MSS SP-97; these pipe ends resemble saddle-shaped fittings, and the diameter of the branches connected to them can reach DN600!
Agree with the view from floor 9. Semi-elbow joints connect the main pipe and the branch pipe; the branch pipe is generally used to drain the condensate from the main pipe. Is that correct?
