Steam Bend
A Steam Bend is a type of pipe fitting used to change the direction of steam flow in a piping system with the following properties:
- Pipe Fitting: A type of pipe fitting used to connect, disconnect, or change the direction of pipes in a piping system.
- Steam Service: Designed for use in steam piping systems, which transport steam from a boiler or other steam source to various points of use.
- Directional Change: Used to change the direction of steam flow in a piping system.
Key Features:
- Changes Direction of Steam Flow: Changes the direction of steam flow in a piping system.
- Maintains Steam Pressure and Temperature: Maintains the pressure and temperature of the steam during directional changes.
- Prevents Steam Leaks and Energy Losses: Prevents steam leaks and energy losses by providing a secure and reliable connection.
- Simplifies Piping Design: Simplifies piping design by allowing for changes in direction, reducing the need for additional fittings.
- Available as BSP Threaded or Weld-On
Description
