Finding the Right Components for Your Needs
These stainless-steel sanitary butt weld fittings are welded to connect to tubing or other fittings for a permanent and flush connection. These are essential pieces of piping systems found in a wide range of facilities across multiple industries, including breweries, dairies and more. Most often, they are used to change the direction of flow to ensure product flows to equipment used in the next stage of the process. These include 45- and 90-degree elbows as well as 180-degree bends that reverse flow back in the other direction within a tight space.
Other types of these sanitary weld fittings include branching sections that allow for redirecting a portion of the fluids to a different piece of equipment separate from the main production run. Some feature narrower apertures at one end to connect pipes of different sizes. Choosing the proper fitting for your application involves understanding your existing setup and what you want to accomplish. The experts here at Steel & O’Brien are committed to making sanitary simple for you and will help you find the components that will be the best fit for your needs.
