ASME B16.11 Socket Weld Union Manufacturer

What is a Socket Weld Union?

A socket weld union is a forged fitting designed to connect two pipes while allowing easy disassembly whenever required. Unlike couplings, which create a permanent joint, a union provides a reusable and detachable connection, making it ideal for systems that need frequent inspection, maintenance, or replacement. Each end of the union has a recessed socket for the pipe to fit into, followed by a fillet weld, while the central nut holds the joint securely together.

Socket weld unions are manufactured in accordance with ASME B16.11 and are available in materials such as stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, duplex, and nickel alloys. Their forged construction ensures excellent strength, leak resistance, and durability under high pressure and high temperature. With precise machining and tight sealing design, socket weld unions provide superior performance even in vibration-prone and corrosive environments.

These fittings are widely used in oil & gas industries, petrochemical plants, chemical processing units, refineries, hydraulic systems, power generation, and marine engineering. Socket weld unions are particularly valuable in applications where pipes must be connected securely yet remain accessible for servicing. Their robust build, leak-proof sealing, and easy assembly/disassembly make them a trusted solution for critical industrial piping systems.
