Stainless Steel Elbow
Industrial butt weld elbows marked with size and material, made to the piping standard your specification names.
Overview
What This Pump Does
Stainless steel butt weld elbows for industrial process and utility lines, supplied to ANSI, ASTM, DIN, JIS, BS, ISO, GB, SH and HG standards. Fittings carry size and material marking, as shown on the product photograph.
These are industrial piping fittings rather than hygienic ones: they are welded into the line and are not polished for product contact. For food and pharmaceutical lines use the sanitary elbow range instead.
| Fitting type | Butt weld elbow |
|---|---|
| Material | 316 and 316L stainless steel |

| Service | Industrial process and utility lines |
Key Benefits
Industrial Fittings For A Named Standard
Made To The Specification
ANSI, ASTM, DIN, JIS, BS, ISO, GB, SH and HG so the piping specification can be met directly.
Marked For Traceability
Size and material grade marked on the fitting, which is what an installer checks before welding.
Stainless Grades
316 and 316L for corrosive and welded service.
Small Or Large Lots
Quoted for a handful of repair fittings as readily as for a project lot.
Application Scenarios
Where It Is Installed
Chemical Process Lines
Corrosive service where carbon steel would not last.
Utility Pipework
Plant water, condensate and general service lines.
Repairs And Extensions
Replacing a corroded section or extending an existing stainless run.
Who It Is For
- Piping contractors
- Plant maintenance teams
- Fabricators building skids and modules
- Buyers working to a piping specification
Problems It Solves
Fittings do not meet the specification
Ordering against a named standard avoids fittings that do not match the drawing.
Material grade is unclear
Marking on the fitting shows size and grade at the point of installation.
Mixed sources on one line
Buying fittings and supports together keeps the run consistent.

Use Guide
Ordering Industrial Elbows
Name The Standard
The standard sets the dimensions, so it comes before size and grade.
Give Size And Schedule
Nominal size and wall schedule, so the fitting matches the pipe being welded.
Choose The Grade
316 or 316L depending on service and post installation welding.
Request Certificates Early
Ask for material certificates at enquiry stage so material is traced from the start.
Answers
Stainless Steel Elbow FAQ
Which standards can you supply?
ANSI, ASTM, DIN, JIS, BS, ISO, GB, SH and HG.
Which grades?
316 and 316L.
Are these suitable for food lines?
No. Use the sanitary elbow range for hygienic duty, which is polished and supplied with clamp or weld ends to sanitary standards.
