Buttweld fittings are a type of pipe fittings used in piping systems to connect, change direction, or control the flow of fluids (liquids or gases) through pipelines. These fittings are designed to be welded directly to the ends of pipes, creating a secure and leak-proof connection. The term “buttweld” refers to the method of joining the fittings to the pipes, which involves welding the ends of the fitting to the ends of the pipe using a butt-welding process.
Pipe bends reduce pressure drop and minimize turbulence in the flow, making them suitable for applications requiring smooth fluid movement.
