Steel Pipe Cross
The steel pipe cross is used when there is a branch on the main pipeline that needs to be connected. When the size of the branch is the same as the header pipe equal cross is used and when the branch size is less than the header size, then, unequal cross is better. Our company applies hydroforming and hot press forming to manufacture steel crosses which are made of seamless pipe. Hydroforming can complete steel pipe cross shape forming at once, thus getting high efficiency.
Materials for making our pipe cross are often low carbon steel, low alloy steel and stainless steel to strain hardening tendency. However, if hot press forming technology is adopted and equipment required is of small tonnage. Besides, large diameter and large wall thickness steel cross are usually manufactured by means of hot press forming.
The maximum wall thickness of the steel pipe cross is 150 mm and some schedule numbers are sch10, sch20, sch30, std, sch40, sch60, xs, sch80, sch100, sch120, sch140, sch160, xxs, sch5s, sch20s, sch40s and sch80s. Our steel cross and related pipe fittings are widely used in electricity, gasoline, petrochemical, ship building, heat supply network, paper making and metallurgical industries among others.

CARBON STEEL BUTT WELD FITTINGS
- ASTM A234 Carbon steel Cross – Wrought Carbon and Alloy Steel Butt Weld Fittings : This specification covers wrought carbon steel and alloy steel butt weld fittings of seamless and welded construction. This is the most common material for carbon steel butt weld fittings (specifically grade WPB) and is seamless up to 24”, where diameters of 24” or larger may come seamless or welded. These butt weld fittings are for use in pressure piping and in pressure vessel fabrication for service at moderate and elevated temperatures.
- ASTM A860: This specification covers wrought high-strength ferritic steel butt weld fittings of seamless and electric fusion-welded construction covered by the latest revisions of ASME B16.9 and MSS-SP-75. These butt weld fittings are for use in high-pressure gas and oil transmission and distribution systems.
STAINLESS STEEL BUTT WELD CROSS FITTINGS
- Seamless and Welded Stainless Butt Weld CROSS FITTINGS: This specification covers the standard for seamless and welded wrought austenitic stainless steel butt weld fittings for pressure piping applications.
Pipe fittings are used in plumbing systems to connect straight sections of pipe or tubes, to accommodate different sizes or shapes, and for other purposes such as regulating (or measuring) fluid flow. These fittings are used in plumbing systems to control the transfer of water, gas or liquid waste within pipes or plumbing systems in domestic or commercial environments. Fittings (especially uncommon types) require money, time, materials and tools to install and are an important part of plumbing and plumbing systems. Common pipe fittings mainly include: flange, elbows, couplings, unions, spools, reducers, bushings, tees, diverter tees, crosses, caps, plugs, barbs and valves. Although valves are technically fittings, they are usually discussed separately.
Pipe fitting bodies are usually made of the same base material as the pipe or tubing they are connected to: copper, steel, PVC, CPVC or ABS. Any material permitted by plumbing, health or building codes (as applicable) may be used, but it must be compatible with the other materials in the system, the fluid being conveyed, and the temperature and pressure inside (and outside) the system. Brass or bronze fittings over copper Common in plumbing and plumbing systems. Fire resistance, shock resistance, mechanical strength, anti-theft and other factors also affect the choice of material for pipe fittings.

Concentric reducers are used where the pipework is vertically installed and at the discharge side of pumps. Eccentric reducers are more often used when the pipework lays on a pipe rack. Because of the flat side, aligning and securely mounting the pipes to the rack is easier.
Butt Weld Cap We are manufacturer of butt weld cap and supplies all schedules in kinds of materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel. Zizi produces pipe caps in ASME, DIN, JIS and other required standards. Pipe cap is one of the common used pipe fittings for stoping fluid by covering at the pipe end. It is available in butt weld type, socket weld type and threaded type, and buttweld cap is more popular in view of the good performance, stable connection and large dimension selection range.
