ASME B16.11 Socket Weld Unequal Cross Manufacturer

What Are Socket Weld Unequal Cross Fittings?

Socket Weld Unequal Cross fittings are forged pipe fittings designed to connect four pipes, but with one or more outlets smaller than the main run pipes. Unlike an equal cross—where all ends are the same size—an unequal cross allows for controlled distribution of flow from a larger pipeline into smaller branch lines. With a recessed socket on each outlet, the pipe is inserted and secured using a fillet weld, creating a strong, leak-proof, and vibration-resistant joint ideal for high-pressure, small-bore piping systems.

These fittings are manufactured according to ASME B16.11 standards and are available in materials such as stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, duplex, super duplex, and nickel alloys. Their forged construction offers excellent mechanical strength, dimensional accuracy, and high resistance to temperature, corrosion, and severe operating conditions. The reduced branch outlet helps maintain controlled flow rates and system efficiency while ensuring reliable pipeline performance.

Socket Weld Unequal Cross fittings are commonly used in oil & gas plants, petrochemical industries, power generation units, hydraulic systems, chemical processing lines, marine engineering, and high-pressure industrial piping networks. They are particularly beneficial in complex piping layouts where precise flow branching is required from a larger line into smaller auxiliary pipelines. Their compact design, safety, and durability make them a preferred solution for critical industrial applications.
