Forged Short Radius Elbow
Short radius elbow is a common pipe fittings, used to change the direction of the pipe, its radius of curvature is equal to the diameter of the pipe, usually used for low-pressure fluid transmission or space-constrained occasions.
Overview
Application Fields
Petrochemical industry: used to connect pipes and change the direction of fluid.
Power industry: used for power transmission and distribution, can reduce the pipeline energy consumption.
Construction industry: widely used in HVAC, water supply and drainage systems.
Ship engineering: used in ship engineering type of working conditions, especially in the case of space constraints.
Flue gas piping of boilers: in due to space constraints, short radius elbows can be easily installed,.
Fine chemical industry: commonly used in jacketed piping on the outer pipe.
Low-pressure fluid environments: commonly used in low-pressure fluid environments or where certain elbows are restricted.
Advantages
Reduces pipe turning radius
Protects piping
Reduces fluid resistance losses
Aesthetically pleasing and practical
Easy to install
Space saving
