Low Temperature Carbon Steel Pipe Fittings
A420 WPL6 is wrought carbon steel for low-temperature service, so
A420 WPL6 reducing pipe is suitable for low temperature conditions.
It could work in the -50 degree F at lowest. It also can be used
for pressure vessels. Low temperature carbon steel pipe fittings
are better to connected with pipes, fittings or flanges which
materials is also low temperature metal such as ASTM A333 Grade 6
or A350 LF2.

Weight of Buttweld Tee
There are two ways to get the weight of steel pipe tee. The first
one is the weight tee chart, which is easy and fast. And the second
is using calculation formula, which is suit for some special sizes.
How to Calculate Pipe Tee Weight
- Buttweld Tee Weight Formula:
0.02466*(S+1.5)*[D-(S+1.5)]*(3C-D/2)/1000
- S= wall thickness in mm
- D= outside diameter in mm
- C= length*[out
diameter-(thickness+2)]*(thickness*2)*0.02466*length, the unit is
mm, too.
Differences Between Carbon Steel And Low Temperature Carbon Steel
Low temperature carbon steels are low to medium carbon, high
manganese, silicon steels with fine grain structure and uniform
carbide dispersion.
Carbon steel usually no minimum content is specified or required
for elements like chromium, molybdenum and nickel.
Package of LTCS Pipe Fittings
- Marked with Grade, Lot No, Size, Standard and Pressure.
- Packed Reducing Tee into wooden cases or pallets.
- Tagged labers on the outside of the package for easy
indentification.
Inspection of Buttweld Fittings
- Visual and touch the surface. Such as dents, die marks, porosity,
undercuts.
- Check the marking. Such as size, material grade, pressure, heat no.
- Measure the size of diameter, thickness, end to end, ensure them
are all in tolerance.
