MSS-SP-97 ASTM A182 F316L threadolet: A modern solution for branch connections

Recently, a Singaporean client placed an order with Haihao Group for MSS-SP-97 threadolets made of ASTM A182 F316L material with a pressure class of 3000#. This order highlights the growing global preference for threadolets, a type of branch connection fitting, over traditional branch connection methods.

What is a threadolet?

A threadolet is a type of branch connection fitting standardized under MSS-SP-97. It is designed as a reinforced pipe fitting for branch connections, offering several advantages over conventional methods like reducing tees, reinforcing pads, or reinforcement pipe segments. By replacing these traditional fittings, threadolets provide a safer, more cost-effective, and streamlined solution for modern piping systems.

Key Advantages of MSS-SP-97 Threadolets

Safety and Reliability:

Threadolets are engineered to provide superior reinforcement at branch connections, ensuring higher safety in critical applications like high-pressure and high-temperature systems.

Cost Efficiency:

The use of threadolets reduces material and labor costs by eliminating the need for additional reinforcement plates or welding large fittings.

Simplified Installation:

Threadolets are easier to install compared to traditional methods, thanks to their compact design and threaded connections. This simplicity significantly reduces installation time.

Improved Flow Path:

The smooth internal transition of a threadolet minimizes turbulence and pressure drops in the flow, optimizing the system’s performance.

Standardized Design:

Available in a wide range of sizes and pressure classes, threadolets conform to international standards, making them convenient for design selection and procurement.

Applications of Threadolets

Threadolets are particularly favored in systems with:

• High pressure
• High temperature
• Large-diameter pipes
• Thick-walled piping

Industries like oil and gas, petrochemical, power generation, and chemical processing increasingly rely on threadolets for their branch connection needs, especially in demanding environments.

ASTM A182 F316L Material: A Premium Choice

The ASTM A182 F316L material used for the ordered threadolets offers exceptional corrosion resistance and durability. As a low-carbon variant of stainless steel 316, F316L is particularly suitable for applications where welding is required, as it minimizes the risk of carbide precipitation and enhances resistance to intergranular corrosion. This makes it an ideal choice for marine environments, chemical processing plants, and high-temperature applications.
