Dimensional tolerances are in millimeters unless otherwise indicated and are equal ± except as noted.


Note..
MSS SP-43 only covers stainless steel buttweld fittings made for use with Schedule 5S and 10S pipe and Stub Ends suitable for use with Schedule 40S pipe, as defined in ASME B36.19. The dimensions and dimensional tolerances defined in MSS SP-43 are substantially the same as those in ASME B16.9 specifications from NPS 1/2 - NPS 24. Except with regard to the outside diameter at the bevel.


Other Dimensions Butt Weld Elbows

BW elbows 90 deg. short radius
BW elbows 90° SR
The center to face distance for a long radius elbow, abbreviated LR always is 1.1/2 x Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) (1.1/2D), while the center to face distance for a short radius elbow, abbreviated SR even is to nominal pipe size...



BW elbows 180 deg. long and short radius
BW elbows 180° LR & SR
The function of a 180° elbow is to change direction of flow through 180°. Both, the LR and the SR types have a center to center dimension double the matching 90° elbows...



BW reducing elbows 90 deg.
BW reducing elbows 90°
The Reducing Elbow, is a elbow with various diameters on the ends, and for many suppliers it is not a standard item...
