Range
Common Forged Fitting Types
Forged fittings are used where compact dimensions, pressure integrity, and dependable connections are required. Universal Metals supports common configurations for process, utility, and fabrication requirements.
Threaded Elbows
90 degree and 45 degree threaded elbows for direction changes in smaller bore piping systems.
Socket Weld Tees
Socket weld tees for branch connections where strength and clean fit-up are important.
Couplings and Unions
Full and half couplings, reducing couplings, and unions for joining, reducing, and maintenance access.
Caps and Bushings
Forged caps, plugs, and hex bushings for line termination and connection size transitions.
Materials and Standards
Available materials include stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, duplex, super duplex, and nickel alloy grades. Supply can align with project and buyer requirements across corrosion resistance, temperature service, and pressure class needs.
Relevant technical references include ASTM A182, ASTM A105, and ASME B16.11, with related standards applied according to fitting type, end connection, and material grade. Buyers can request documentation support including MTCs, traceability, PMI, NDT, COO, and conformity records where applicable.
