ASTM B466 Copper Nickel Equal Tee C71500 Seamless Socket Weld 150LB for Ship
1. Product Description
The Copper Nickel Equal Tee is a branch fitting with all three ports having identical inside diameters, manufactured from Cu-Ni 90/10 or Cu-Ni 70/30 alloy by seamless drawing or welded forming. Strictly conforming to ASTM B466, ASME B16.9, and MSS SP-43, it offers exceptional seawater corrosion resistance and anti-fouling properties, widely used in offshore engineering, marine piping, and chemical pipeline systems.
2. Product Applications
-
Ocean-going vessels:Main/auxiliary engine seawater cooling, ballast water systems, fire main lines, sewage treatment unit piping
-
Floating offshore facilities:Semi-submersible platform seawater risers, FPSO process cooling water manifolds, deep-sea production equipment cooling branch lines
-
Seawater utilization:Once-through seawater cooling in power plants, essential service water in coastal nuclear plants, seawater flushing pipelines
-
Chemical sector:Evaporator brine circulation, chloride solution transmission, fertilizer plant saline wastewater lines
-
Shipbuilding & repair:Dock seawater lines, ballast water treatment system retrofits
-
Others:Marine research facilities, subsea observatory cooling systems, seawater aquaculture farm piping
3.Installation & Precautions
-
Unpacking & storage:Inspect for dents or deformation after unpacking; store on raised platforms to avoid moisture; do not store with sulfides or acids.
-
End cleaning:Wipe ends with clean cloth dipped in industrial alcohol to remove rust preventive oil and dust before welding or connection.
-
Butt weld key points:Bevel angle ≤35°; align inner walls flush during fit-up. Use low current, fast welding; remove slag after each pass.
-
Socket weld:Gap between pipe and socket not too large; at least two passes around circumference; ensure uniform fillet height.
-
Threaded connection:Use PTFE tape or thread sealant; keep concentric during tightening to avoid thread damage.
-
System pressure test:Use fresh water for hydrotest; pressurize slowly to 1.5× working pressure; hold for 30 minutes.
-
Prohibitions:
-
Do not use for strong oxidizing acids (e.g., conc. nitric acid) or media with high ammonia content.
-
Do not strike the fitting directly with a steel hammer during installation.
-
Provide adequate pipe supports to prevent excessive bending loads on the tee.
