Classification of pipe fittings: according to purpose and connection

Pipe fitting is a general term for components in the piping system that function as connection,control,direction change,split,seal,and support.According to different processing methods,it is divided into four categories,namely butt welding pipe fitting(both welded and non-welded),socket welding pipe fitting,threaded pipe  fitting and flanged pipe fitting.Pipe fittings contain 45°/90°/180° elbow,concentric/eccentric reducer,eqaul/reducing/lateral/barred tee,3D/5D/7D bend,cap,coupling,nipple,cross,stub end,union,outlet,swage nipple,etc.

There are many types of pipe fittings,which are classified according to their use,connection,materials,and processing methods.

By purpose:

1. Pipe fittings for pipe joints are: flanges,unions,coupling,etc.
2. Change the pipe fitting pipe direction: elbow,bend.
3. Pipe fitting that changes the pipe diameter: eccentric reducer,reducing elbow,outlet and reinforcing pipe
4. Increase the pipe fitting of the pipeline branch: tee,cross.
5. pipe fitting for pipeline sealing: gasket,blind flange,plug,cap

By connection:

1. Welded pipe fitting
2. Threaded pipe fitting
3. ferrule pipe fitting
4. clamp pipe fitting
5. socket pipe fitting
6. bonded pipe fitting
7. hot melt pipe fitting
8. curved double pipe fitting
9. rubber ring connected pipe fitting
