Short Radius Butt Weld Elbow

Short Radius Butt Weld Elbows​ are essential pipe fittings designed to change the direction of flow in piping systems at a 45-degree or 90-degree angle. Characterized by a centerline radius that is equal to the nominal pipe diameter (1D), these elbows are more compact than their long-radius counterparts, making them ideal for installations where space is limited. Shanxi Xinshunda Flange Manufacturing Co., Ltd.​ manufactures short radius butt weld elbows using advanced hot-pressing and cold-forming techniques, ensuring seamless structural integrity and perfect dimensional accuracy. Compliant with international standards such as ASME B16.9​ and ANSI B16.28, our elbows provide a strong, leak-proof, and economical solution for various industrial piping networks.

Our ASTM A193 bolts are produced using state-of-the-art CNC machinery to ensure every thread and hexagonal head meets precise engineering drawings. The raw materials undergo strict chemical composition analysis before entering the production line. Each fastener is subjected to rigorous surface inspection to ensure the absence of defects such as cracks, laps, or improper coating. The dimensional accuracy is verified using advanced measuring instruments, ensuring a perfect match with your mating flanges.

At Shanxi Xinshunda, we maintain a rigorous Quality Control system for all butt weld elbows. Every fitting undergoes strict dimensional inspections using calibrated templates and ultrasonic thickness gauges. We perform Hydrostatic or Pneumatic pressure tests to verify leak tightness and structural integrity. Surface defects are checked via Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) or Dye Penetrant Testing (DPT). Material composition is verified through spectroscopic analysis, and Mill Test Certificates (EN 10204 3.1) are provided with every shipment.

To protect the product during transit, each elbow is carefully cleaned and the beveled ends are coated with rust-preventative oil. Smaller sizes are individually wrapped in plastic bags or bubble wrap, while larger fittings are stacked and securely fixed on strong plywood pallets. For international shipping, products are packed in sturdy plywood cases with ample cushioning to prevent movement and surface damage. Each package is clearly labeled with the size, material, quantity, and batch number. Store in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent corrosion.

With over 15 years of manufacturing expertise, Shanxi Xinshunda Flange Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has proudly supplied premium industrial piping components to 3,800+ global customers​ across 70+ countries. We are committed to delivering robust and reliable solutions that ensure the safety and efficiency of your infrastructure projects worldwide.
