CuNi 70/30 Copper Nickel Reducing Tee Socket Weld Fitting ASME B16.5 Class 150 Marine Grade Pipe Fittings
1. Product Description
A Copper Nickel Reducing Tee is a T-shaped pipe fitting manufactured from copper-nickel (CuNi) alloy, featuring three openings with different diameters. The fitting consists of a main opening called the "run" and two side openings called "branches". As a reducing tee, the branch outlet has a smaller diameter than the run pipe, allowing for flow transition between different pipe sizes.
Common material grades include 90/10 Copper Nickel (UNS C70600, also known as B10 or CuNi90/10) and 70/30 Copper Nickel (UNS C71500, also known as B30 or CuNi70/30). The fitting is available in various connection types including butt weld (BW), socket weld (SW), and threaded connections.
2.Product Applications
Copper Nickel Reducing Tees are widely used in the following applications:
-
Marine and Shipbuilding: Seawater cooling systems, fire main piping, ballast water systems, bilge systems, main seawater lines
-
Offshore Platforms: Seawater cooling, firefighting water lines, process water piping
-
Desalination Plants: Intake and outfall systems, high-pressure brine lines, product water distribution
-
Industrial Applications: Chemical processing, power plants, HVAC systems, oil and gas
-
Other Fields: Petrochemical, pharmaceutical, aerospace, aquaculture, metallurgy
The fitting is suitable for conveying seawater, fresh water, air, steam, oil, and other media.
3. Product Advantages
