High Pressure Pipe Elbows Castings
High Pressure Pipe Elbows Castings
Pipe elbows can be made using a casting process, where molten metal is poured into a mold. The high quality finish derived from the casting process is a testament to the precision and quality maintained in the manufacturing process.
Casting Process for Elbows
- Method: In casting, the desired metal (e.g., malleable iron or cast steel) is melted into a liquid state and poured into a sand or other type of mold.
- Properties: This method is suitable for creating complex shapes and large parts. Cast fittings are generally used for low to medium-pressure applications and can be more economical.
- Applications: Cast iron elbows are commonly used in plumbing, wastewater management, and fire protection systems for water and gas lines.
