Weldolet: When & Why Use it?
Maintain Quality -Reduce Costs
Use Weldolet fitting for branch connections instead of:
• Welding Tees
• Reinforced Branches
• Unreinforced Branches
Because of the reasons outlined below:
1 Wherever welding fittings are requiered use the Weldolet in
lieu of welding tees.
•Weldolet fittings cost 50% to 90% less tha welding tees.
•The Weldolet fabricates 50% to 90% less than welding tees.
• The Weldolet allows more flexible fabrication. (Run pipe
then weld on fittings)
• The Weldolet maintains full pipe strength in accordance with
ASME B16.9 and other ASME Codes for Pressure Piping.
• The Weldolet provides full fluid flow.
2 Wherever reinforced branches (saddles, reinforcing pads) are
required by internal pressure-temperature conditions, external
forces or both – an integrally reinforced Weldolet should
be used.
• The Weldolet fitting facilitates fabrication and reduces cost.
(No chipping, less cutting and welding)
• The Weldolet provides a perfectly contoured internal joint.
• The Weldolet fully integrates branch reinforcement and header,
avoids metal to metal lapped surfaces and sharp re-entrant
corners.
3 DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION with butt weld, socket or
threaded outlets
•Reduce the number of fittings sizes per outlet required
• Provide a smooth flow transition from the header pipe into the
branch.
• Meet requierement of applicable piping code ASME B31.1,
B31.3, B31.4 and B31.8, MSS-SP-97
